Compared on the jobs that matter

• Does the work: it changes the site, writes pages or places the brand itself, beyond tracking, reporting and recommending.
• Proves it against controls: it measures each change against control questions, or a held-out group, the change could not move.
• Runs from Claude or ChatGPT: Claude or ChatGPT can run it over MCP.
• Free audit: anyone can run an audit with it without paying or starting a trial.
• Yes means the tool's own page says it, quoted under each tool below; a dash means none of the pages we read says it.

Agents vs agencies vs trackers

A tracker asks AI engines your buyers' questions and reports whether you're named, cited or recommended. Someone still has to make the changes.

An agency makes them by hand, on a retainer. WebFX's AI search optimization services start at $3,000 a month^[1], and Omniscient Digital's full-service engagements start at $120,000 a year^[2]. Lean Labs prices a one-time AEO build from $12k, then off-site work from $5k a month^[3][4].

An agent does the work itself, as software: it changes the site, writes the pages and places the brand where AI reads, and it keeps going after a retainer would end. supereo is one, and the table marks the other tools whose own pages say they do the work.

What AEO agencies publish

Discovered Labs' entry retainer is €6,995 a month on a 6-month commitment^[5]. AEO Engine's managed plans are $1,597 and $2,997 a month, with Enterprise from $10,000 a month^[6].

What a retainer buys varies: content, schema and on-page work with tracking against competitors^[7], or an audit, ongoing strategy and tracking software^[8].

Two agencies say plainly that nobody can guarantee a place in AI answers^[9][10]. supereo doesn't promise one either: it proves what each change did against control questions.

How to choose

If you want the work done and proven at software prices, pick an agent: supereo's plans are in the table, with every other tool's.

If you need a team of people on it, an agency is the way, at the retainers above. If your own team will do the work, a tracker tells it where to start.

Either way, start with a free audit, which shows what AI says about you today: run supereo's.

The tools

Questions

How we compiled this

Every price, prompt cap and AI engine on this page comes from each tool's own pricing page, and every capability from the tool's own product pages, docs and free tools. supereo reads them every week and keeps a value only when the page states it word for word; each tool on this page names the page and the day it was last checked.

Prices are US dollars a month on monthly billing, or the monthly price of an annual plan where that is the only price the page states, marked billed annually. A free trial is not a free plan, and custom pricing is a price the page does not publish. A tool sold only as part of a bigger product says so beside its prices.

Yes means the tool's own page says it, in the words quoted under each tool. A dash means none of the pages we read says it, so the tool may still do it without saying so there.

We make supereo, so it is listed first, as our pick. The other tools follow by how many of the four jobs their own pages claim, then by price.

Where this page's words state something the dataset doesn't hold, such as a change a tool made, the sentence links its source and the day it was read.

supereo (supereo.app) is an AI agent that does everything it takes to get your brand recommended by ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Google, on your site and off it: site fixes, new pages, roundups, placements and video. It proves what worked against control questions. Made by superagnt.
