Short answer
The short answer
Ahrefs Brand Radar fits Ahrefs users and established brands that want mentions, citations and AI share of voice across a very large pre-run prompt index. Look elsewhere by the job: Otterly.AI for low-cost monitoring of your own prompts, Peec AI for daily analytics with recommendations, Profound for an enterprise agent that stages page rewrites, the Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit if you are on Semrush, and Eli (ours) for website, conversion and Meta ads work done for you.

Ahrefs Brand Radar by itself
What Ahrefs Brand Radar does, and who it fits
Does by itself: Measures mentions, citations and AI share of voice across 495M+ pre-run prompts, tracks your own custom prompts, and shows AI traffic and AI bot visits.
You still: Turn the data into content and outreach yourself.
Fits: Ahrefs users and established brands that want AI visibility across a large prompt index. Skip it if: Your brand has little search demand; Ahrefs says the index has limited coverage for such brands.
Entry price: Custom prompts from €47/mo (€46.7/mo package); AI Visibility Index from €179/mo; €654/mo for all models. Ahrefs Lite €119/mo includes 150 AI prompt checks. EUR shown to a Dutch visitor. Source, checked 22 October 2026

- You turn the data into content and outreach yourself
Look at an alternative when

- You want a free trial; Ahrefs says it does not discount
The alternatives
Ahrefs Brand Radar alternatives, by the work you want done
The alternatives are listed alphabetically, and Eli, which makes this page, is listed last. The order is not a ranking.
Otterly.AI
Fits when: You want daily monitoring of your own prompts at a low entry price.
Does by itself: Tracks prompts daily across AI search engines, reports brand visibility, sentiment and citations, runs GEO and crawlability audits, and gives recommendations (3 a week on Lite, unlimited on Standard and up).
You still: Make the content and site changes yourself.
Not a fit when: You want anything done on your site or ads; it is monitoring and advice.
Entry price: Lite €29/month, Standard €189/month, Premium €489/month (monthly; 15% off annually); Enterprise custom from 1,000 prompts. Source
Peec AI
Fits when: You want daily analytics with ranked recommended actions.
Does by itself: Runs your prompts daily on chosen AI models and reports visibility, position, sentiment, sources, gaps and ranked recommended actions; a Peec agent generates actions from the data.
You still: Choose prompts and models, then create the content, PR and site changes yourself.
Not a fit when: You want the work done for you; plans stop at recommendations and generated actions.
Entry price: Starter €85/mo, Pro €205/mo, Advanced €425/mo (monthly billing; 15% off annual); Enterprise custom, annual. Source
Profound
Fits when: You are an enterprise team and want an agent that drafts and stages page rewrites.
Does by itself: Tracks brand visibility in answer engines; its AI Marketer drafts content, rewrites pages with citation decay and stages them in your CMS, drafts sponsored-answer ad creative and PR corrections.
You still: Review and approve what the AI Marketer stages; buy an Enterprise package for ongoing tracking.
Not a fit when: You are a small brand that wants a published monthly price; brand plans beyond the trial are custom Enterprise only.
Entry price: Brands: Trial free (7 days), Enterprise custom. Agencies: Agency Growth $99/month + add-ons ($399/month per client workspace, $199/month per 5 trial workspaces). Source
Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit
Fits when: Your team is on Semrush rather than Ahrefs.
Does by itself: Benchmarks brand visibility and sentiment in AI answers, prompt research, daily tracking of custom prompts, and an AI-readiness site audit with AI-generated strategy recommendations.
You still: Do all content, technical and PR work yourself.
Not a fit when: You need more than 25 tracked prompts on the base toolkit or want execution.
Entry price: AI Visibility toolkit $99 per month per domain (Knowledge Base); pricing page showed Base €94.94/mo per domain to a Dutch visitor. Semrush One Starter €190 monthly (€158.40/mo billed annually) includes 50 tracked prompts. Source
Eli (ours)
Fits when: You want the AI search work done, not only measured: pages written and fixed on your own website, conversions tracked and Meta ads tested from one picture of the company, with you approving the first change and any ad budget.
Does by itself: Four agents (AI Search Agent, Website Agent, Conversion Agent, Paid Ads Agent) ask the questions buyers ask ChatGPT and Gemini, write the pages and fixes, track conversions and test Meta ads, every day, from one picture of the company.
You still: Connect the website once (site tag or WordPress plugin), approve the first change and the ad budget, answer questions Eli may not guess.
Not a fit when: You only want a dashboard to track AI visibility, or you sell mainly through retail checkout.
Entry price: Free to start; Autopilot from $99/mo (all four agents); $1,500/mo with Eli's team (Done for You). Source
Where Eli is not the right choice
When to choose something other than Eli
Skip Eli if you only want a dashboard to track AI visibility, or you sell mainly through retail checkout. Eli needs your website connected once (a site tag or the WordPress plugin), and you approve the first change and any ad budget. If you already have a marketing team that only needs the data, a measuring tool from the list above fits better and costs less.

Where a vendor does not publish something, the page says so; nothing is estimated. No tool is scored or ranked: the others are listed alphabetically and Eli, which we make, last. If a fact here is out of date, email hello@hireeli.io and we correct it.

About Eli · facts checked 20 October 2026
What Eli is: AI agents that do your marketing work
Eli is an AI growth team for B2B companies: four autonomous AI agents for AI search, your website, conversions and Meta ads. They work every day; you approve what matters. You do not do the marketing work yourself: Eli's agents do it every day, also when you are not logged in, and ask you only when a decision is yours.
- AI Search Agent: gets you named when buyers ask ChatGPT and Gemini what to buy.
- Website Agent: fixes the pages where buyers decide; changes go live after your yes.
- Conversion Agent: tracks which visits become customers, through the Eli site tag.
- Paid Ads Agent: tests Meta ads inside your budget, after a tracking check.
Eli is for founders of B2B software and service companies, often 11 to 50 people, whose website gets visitors but not enough customers, and who have no marketing team to work on it.
You use Eli from ChatGPT or Claude, through Eli's MCP connector, or in your Eli account at hireeli.io, and Eli sends you one short report a week. There is no new dashboard to learn.
Eli Free is free forever: one website, one full check, no card. Eli Autopilot has all four agents (AI Search, Website, Conversion and Paid Ads for Meta ads) on every plan; only the capacity differs: Launch $99, Core $249 or Grow $599 a month (or €99, €249 and €599). Eli Done for You is $1,500 or €1,500 a month: Grow's capacity, set up and run with Eli's team. Every plan is monthly and can be cancelled anytime, and every account starts free. Enterprise is scoped and priced in a call. Your ad budget is separate and goes directly to Meta.
On G2, Eli is rated 4.8 out of 5 from 2 verified reviews (checked 20 October 2026). One reviewer: “I like how ELI has fully automated agents that do the work, so I don't have to do anything.” G2 reviews
You approve Eli's first change and your ad budget. After that you can let Eli improve pages and publish by itself, and you can undo anything. More money or anything new still waits for your yes. "Stop everything" works at any time. Eli never promises a ranking, a revenue figure, a multiple or a date. It tracks conversions, reports what it measured, and says so when it is too early to tell.
