Compiled from each vendor’s public pricing page: Peec AI figures from peec.ai/pricing, checked August 27, 2026; Scrunch AI figures from www.scrunch.com/pricing, checked July 16, 2026. Peec AI: Starter covers three models; tier prices render client-side. Scrunch AI: $250 billed annually; 3 seats, 350 prompts, 5 page audits. “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. Prices change often: verify before buying. Spot an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
Reading the difference
On cost per engine at entry, the crudest useful way to normalise these two, Peec AI works out at about $13.33 per engine per month ($80 across 3–6) and Scrunch AI at about $60.00 ($300 across 5 reported). Peec AI is the better ratio, by roughly $46.67 per engine. Treat that as a sanity check rather than a verdict: an engine you do not care about is not worth anything, and Scrunch AI’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: Peec AI covers an MCP server and Scrunch AI does not; Scrunch AI covers Claude, Grok (enterprise) and generated fixes (5 page audits) and Peec AI 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 That is the whole difference on the rows both vendors publish, everything else in the matrix either matches or is unpublished by one of them, and an unpublished row is not a “no”.
Worth knowing before you shortlist either: neither Peec AI nor Scrunch AI offers Search Console integration. If any of those is a requirement, this comparison is the wrong shortlist and you should widen it rather than pick the better of two tools that both miss what you need.
The tier ladders are worth reading side by side, because the entry price means something different on each. Peec AI: Starter $80 (3 models) · higher tiers add models. Scrunch AI: Starter $300 ($250 annual) · extra seats $25/mo. That is where most of the apparent price gap between these two either disappears or widens sharply, depending on which engines you actually need.
One practical difference that does not appear in any feature list: Peec AI bills as flat and Scrunch AI as flat tiers. 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 Peec AI if…
Peec AI is the analytics-first choice: sentiment, multi-country and unlimited seats. Against Scrunch AI specifically, it is the cheaper entry by $220 a month, it covers more engines at entry (3–6 against 5 reported) and and it bills as flat where Scrunch AI bills as flat tiers.
- sentiment analysis and multi-country tracking, which is the deepest reporting layer among the self-serve tools here
- unlimited seats on paid plans, so the whole team can read the dashboard without a per-seat conversation
- an MCP server included on paid plans, and published data studies drawn from a very large source corpus
What you give up:
- neither Claude nor Grok appears on its published engine list, which is two of the six engines buyers most often ask about
- the Starter covers three of the six models it lists, so the entry price is not the full-coverage price
- tier prices render client-side, so a crawler that does not execute JavaScript sees no price at all: and no Search Console integration
Choose Scrunch AI if…
Scrunch AI is the mid-market platform, sold to teams rather than to individuals. Against Peec AI specifically, you are paying $220 a month more than Peec AI for it, it covers fewer engines at entry (5 reported against 3–6) and and it bills as flat tiers where Peec AI bills as flat.
- a no-card 3-day trial, so the product can be evaluated before any payment details change hands
- three seats included at entry rather than one, with additional seats at a published $25/mo
- Claude and Microsoft Copilot both covered, a combination few tools here manage
What you give up:
- a $300 floor with no smaller plan beneath it, which rules it out for solo operators and early-stage teams
- its engine list is reviewer-reported rather than published, and the Grok tier mapping is unverified
- no Search Console integration and no MCP server
