Short answer

The short answer

AirOps fits content teams and enterprises that want a platform to research, publish and refresh content for AI search, with strategy services alongside. Look elsewhere by the job: Gauge for heavy prompt tracking with publish-ready articles, Goodie AI for agents with revenue attribution, Profound for an enterprise agent that stages page rewrites, Writesonic for tracking plus AI articles, and Eli (ours) if you have no content team and want website, conversion and Meta ads work done.

AirOps by itself

What AirOps does, and who it fits

Does by itself: Platform plus expert team: insights across answer engines, content workflows that research, publish and refresh content, and strategy and channel services.

You still: Build or run workflows, review content, and pay per task beyond the allotment.

Fits: Content teams and enterprises that want a content platform plus strategy services for AI search. Skip it if: You want a fixed published monthly price.

Stay with AirOps when

  • You have a content team that will build and run workflows
  • You want content researched, published and refreshed through your CMS with human review

Look at an alternative when

  • You want a fixed published monthly price
  • You have no one to run a content programme
  • You want Meta ads run in the same tool

The alternatives

AirOps 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.

Gauge

Fits when: You want hundreds of prompts tracked daily and publish-ready articles sent to your CMS after approval.

Does by itself: Runs 600 prompts daily, recommends actions, writes 18 publish-ready articles a month and sends approved articles to your CMS; tracks ChatGPT ads; separate 'Coding Agents' product.

You still: Review and approve articles; act on Action Center recommendations.

Not a fit when: Your budget is under $599 a month; there is no smaller self-serve plan.

Entry price: Growth $599/mo; Enterprise custom. Coding agents product: $100 to $20,000/mo credit plans. Source

Goodie AI

Fits when: You want agents that create and optimize content with revenue attribution, at a published price.

Does by itself: Monitors AI visibility, and its agents write AEO content and blogs, optimize content, do outreach and social, repair llms.txt and sitemaps, and measure revenue impact.

You still: Pick and adjust prompts; work with the AEO strategist; approval steps are not described.

Not a fit when: You want a sub-$100 plan; Goodie says it has none.

Entry price: Core $295/month, Pro $999/month (billed monthly; annual gives 2 months free); Enterprise custom. 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

Writesonic

Fits when: You want AI visibility tracking and AI articles in one tool.

Does by itself: Tracks AI visibility and ads, writes AI articles, runs site audits with automatic AI fixes, and on Growth/Enterprise ranks actions in an Action Center; agents 'create content, earn citations, and optimize your site'.

You still: Work the Action Center list; Action Center is a trial on Growth and full only on Enterprise.

Not a fit when: You need more than 3 engines without Enterprise.

Entry price: Starter $79, Basic $199, Growth $399 per month billed annually (annual saves 20%); Enterprise custom. 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.

How this page was made

How we compared them

We read each vendor's own product and pricing pages on 22 October 2026 and wrote down what each tool does by itself, what it leaves to you, whether changes need approval and the lowest published price. 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.
