Peec AI alternatives, and what six engines cost

The $95 headline and the $35 add-on are two figures, and combining them is left to the reader. This page does that arithmetic, which is the thing a metered price makes hard to compare.

What three engines costs, and what six costs

From Keylight's price research, read on 3 and 4 September 2026. The add-on price rises with the plan, not just the engine count: one extra model is $85 a month on Pro ($70 billed annually), and $165 a month on Advanced ($140 billed annually). A customer who wants more prompt volume and full engine coverage pays the higher add-on rate on top of the higher plan price, not the Starter rate.

Metered prices, and why they are hard to compare

The add-on price sits on the same page as the headline, and metering by engine genuinely suits a buyer who already knows they only care about ChatGPT and two others. Otterly.AI prices the same way, and so does Ayzeo on its Starter plan, both covered below. In all three cases the headline and the per-engine rate are two separate figures, so a buyer comparing a metered headline against a flat, all-engines price is comparing two different things until they add them up. Peec's prices also render in JavaScript rather than plain HTML, so a simple fetch of the page returns nothing, which is why every figure here comes from Keylight's price research and carries its billing period, currency and date.

What Peec does well

Peec's own homepage, read 16 September 2026, states it is "Trusted by 3000+ brands and agencies." Its dashboard tracks three numbers per brand: visibility, position and sentiment. A "Find Key Sources" feature names where AI answers are citing a brand from, and on the live page it calls out G2 as a review site "regularly cited", names LinkedIn as "a common source", and flags Reddit threads and coverage from outlets such as the New York Times as recurring citation sources. Peec ships a working MCP server and an API: "Connect Peec to Claude, Cursor, n8n, and any tool in your stack through MCP and API." Its Looker Studio connector sits on the Advanced tier, $495 a month or $420 billed annually, rather than on the $95 Starter this page compares.

Lily Ray, VP SEO Strategy at Amsive, is quoted on Peec's homepage: "Metrics like brand mentions, impressions, and sentiment are hard to track - which is why Peec AI is so powerful: it shows how LLMs are framing our brand." A second testimonial on the same page, attributed to Jon Gitlin, SEO Strategist, credits the product with a "5x year-over-year increase in traffic and demo requests from LLMs." That is a customer's own reported result, as published by Peec.

What Peec does not publish

Read on 16 September 2026, Peec's homepage and product pages do not show a margin of error on a visibility score. Nothing on those pages states how many separate questions sit behind a score, which is the number a margin of error is calculated from, and there is no public methodology page describing how a score is produced. What a margin of error is for, and what three studies measured about how far AI answers move, is in why AI answers change between runs.

The alternatives, priced

The same field by buying situation is in the best AI visibility tools. Profound's metering, where the entry tier is ChatGPT only, is in Profound alternatives.

The prompt counts in that table are not one unit. Our research records daily tracking for Peec, Profound and Otterly, weekly for LLMrefs, and no frequency at all for Ayzeo, Superlines, Nightwatch or Scrunch. Keylight checks weekly. A count without its frequency cannot be set against one that has it, so where the frequency is missing, treat the number as unknown rather than equal.

LLMrefs

LLMrefs sells one plan, $79 a month, with no annual option on its pricing page. Every engine it offers is included in that price, and seats and projects are unlimited. There is no per-engine add-on to work out, which is the opposite of Peec's structure.

Otterly and Ayzeo, the other two meters

Otterly's Lite plan is $29 a month, or $25 billed annually, for 15 prompts across 4 included engines. Claude, Gemini and Google AI Mode are paid add-ons on every Otterly tier, the same shape as Peec, priced per engine rather than folded into the headline.

Ayzeo's Starter plan is $39 a month, or $31 billed annually, for 20 prompts. ChatGPT and Google AI Overview are included. The other five engines it offers, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Grok and DeepSeek, are each a $29 a month add-on.

Profound

Profound published a $99 Starter tracking ChatGPT only on 3 September 2026. Re-read on 20 September, it and the $399 tier above it are gone: a brand gets a free trial, "10 prompts run once" on "ChatGPT only", or Enterprise at "Custom". Nothing on the page carries a number, so Profound cannot be compared on price at all.

Superlines and Nightwatch, priced in euros

Superlines prices in euros only, with no USD figure anywhere on its site. Starter is €79 a month, or €69 billed annually, for 50 prompts across any 3 engines. At 1 EUR to 1.15428804 USD, the mid-market rate read from xe.com on 16 September 2026, that is about $91 a month or $80 billed annually.

Nightwatch also prices in euros, with no currency selector. Starter is €99 a month, or €79 billed annually, at the same conversion roughly $114 or $91. Nightwatch's Starter includes what it calls all 6 AI platforms on every plan, so its 50 AI prompts are not gated behind an add-on the way Peec's, Otterly's or Ayzeo's are.

Scrunch

Scrunch's Core plan is $250 a month for 125 prompts across 4 engines and 5 seats. Its annual price could not be established: the FAQ item covering annual billing did not render, and the pricing page carries a repeated banner about a coming change to the plan structure. Treat the $250 figure as current and the annual question as open.

Keylight

Keylight's Solo plan is $79 a month, or two months free a year when billed annually, which works out to about $65.83 a month. It tracks 500 questions a week, spread across whichever of the 8 engines the customer chooses: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Grok and DeepSeek. One question sent to one engine once is one of the 500, so the 500 is a budget to allocate rather than 500 on each. That comes with 1 workspace and 5 seats. No engine sits behind a separate add-on to unlock. Two of the eight, Grok and Claude, are capped at 10% of weekly capacity each, because both are priced by usage on the vendor side rather than by request, and a $39 a month add-on lifts that cap for a customer who wants more of either. That is a real limit, and it is the closest thing Keylight has to Peec's metering.

Where Keylight is behind Peec

Keylight has no custom integrations in version 1: no Zapier, no Slack bots, no CRM connections. A customer who wants Keylight's numbers inside another tool exports a workspace's whole history as a spreadsheet and takes it from there, where Peec offers a live connection instead, on the tiers that carry one.

Keylight is also newer. Peec has a public customer base large enough to publish a number, named testimonials from people with stated titles and companies, and a product that has been iterated on in front of paying customers for longer. Keylight does not have that record yet. What it has instead is a margin of error on every score, a move reported as a change only when its whole range sits clear of zero, the exact text the engine produced behind every score, and a methodology page anyone can read without logging in. Peec's homepage and product pages were read on 16 September 2026 for three of those: a margin of error, any statement of how many separate questions sit behind a score, and a public methodology page. None of the three was there. Which record matters more depends on what the buyer is trying to do with the number.
