Compiled from each vendor’s public pricing page: AthenaHQ figures from www.athenahq.ai/pricing, checked July 16, 2026; Omnia figures from useomnia.com/pricing, checked July 16, 2026. AthenaHQ: free Essential tier stepping up to a $295/mo Starter. Omnia: priced in euros. “Not published” marks a row the vendor does not state publicly; it is not a “no”. Cituna checks all six engines daily and does not track Microsoft Copilot. MCP read tools are included from $39, write tools from Pro ($119); MCP is not exclusive to us.

Reading the difference

On cost per engine at entry, the crudest useful way to normalise these two, AthenaHQ works out at about $32.78 per engine per month ($0 → $295 across 5 free / 9 paid) and Omnia at about $12.14 (€79 across 7). Omnia is the better ratio, by roughly $20.64 per engine. Treat that as a sanity check rather than a verdict: an engine you do not care about is not worth anything, and AthenaHQ’s number improves immediately if its engine mix happens to be the one you need.

The confirmed capability split between these two is narrow enough to state exactly: AthenaHQ covers Grok (paid ($295)) and Search Console integration and Omnia does not; Omnia covers an MCP server and AthenaHQ does not. That is the whole difference on the rows both vendors publish, everything else in the matrix either matches or is unpublished by one of them, and an unpublished row is not a “no”.

The tier ladders are worth reading side by side, because the entry price means something different on each. AthenaHQ: Essential $0 (5 engines) · Starter $295 (9 engines). Omnia: €79 entry · sentiment on the €279 tier. That is where most of the apparent price gap between these two either disappears or widens sharply, depending on which engines you actually need.

They also genuinely overlap on Claude, Microsoft Copilot and generated fixes, so those rows should not carry weight in the decision even though both vendors market them.

One practical difference that does not appear in any feature list: AthenaHQ bills as credit-based and Omnia as flat. A credit-metered plan and a flat plan are hard to compare over a year because only one of them has a predictable ceiling, so run your expected prompt volume through both before treating the entry prices as comparable at all.

Which to choose

Choose AthenaHQ if…

AthenaHQ is the most engine-complete tool in the category, if you can clear the $295 step. Against Omnia specifically, you are paying $210 a month more than Omnia for it, it covers more engines at entry (5 free / 9 paid against 7) and and it bills as credit-based where Omnia bills as flat.

  • the widest published engine list here: nine on the $295 Starter, including Grok and Microsoft Copilot
  • a genuinely free Essential tier covering five engines including Claude, with no card, which is the least risky way to start in this whole category
  • a native Search Console integration, still uncommon among the self-serve tools

What you give up:

  • the jump from free to paid is a $295 cliff with nothing in between, which prices out most small teams the free tier attracts
  • billing is credit-metered rather than flat, so the monthly cost moves with usage and needs a calculator to predict
  • no MCP server at entry, so the data cannot be queried from an AI client without export

Choose Omnia if…

Omnia is the European option, euro-priced with weekly action plans. Against AthenaHQ specifically, it is the cheaper entry by $210 a month, it covers fewer engines at entry (7 against 5 free / 9 paid) and and it bills as flat where AthenaHQ bills as credit-based.

  • euro-native pricing and billing, which removes an FX conversion for European teams
  • an MCP server included, plus weekly action plans rather than a bare dashboard
  • a 14-day trial, among the most generous here

What you give up:

  • no Grok coverage at any tier
  • sentiment analysis sits on the €279 tier rather than the €79 entry
  • no Search Console integration
