My own business or marketing team: Yes. A Mencoro project is one brand: its names, its domains and as many competitors as you want. You write the prompts your customers ask and Mencoro checks them on ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overview, Google AI Mode and Google search. The entry plan, €15 a month, covers 10 prompts on five engines checked every week. Also compare: Mencoro, Otterly.AI, Peec AI. - Who is it for? SEO agency managing clients: Yes, it is the case Mencoro is built for. Every plan includes unlimited projects, unlimited competitors and multi-user access, so an agency keeps every client in one account and pays only for the checks it runs. Clients get white label reports, and the team can pull the data through the REST API or ask for it in Claude or ChatGPT through the MCP server. See Mencoro for agencies. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, Semrush. - Who is it for? Freelancer or consultant: Yes. A consultant starts at €15 a month, opens one project per client at no extra cost and moves up a plan only when the prompt volume grows. The MCP server lets you query each client's data from Claude or ChatGPT while you write the report. Also compare: Mencoro, Otterly.AI. - Who is it for? SaaS / technology: Yes. SaaS buyers ask AI for the best software in a category, for alternatives to a competitor and for one tool against another, and those are the prompts to track. Mencoro shows where you appear in each answer, which competitors are named instead of you (including the ones you do not track yet) and which pages the AI cites. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, Profound. - Who is it for? E-commerce: Yes. Besides ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI answers, Mencoro tracks Google Shopping listings by seller in the same project, so a store sees its products and its brand side by side. See Mencoro for ecommerce. Also compare: Mencoro, Profound, Semrush. - Who is it for? Affiliate or content site: Yes. An affiliate or media site wants to be the source the AI cites. Mencoro stores the sources of every answer, including the pages ChatGPT's search retrieved but did not quote, and shows how often your domain is among them. Also compare: Mencoro, Ahrefs Brand Radar. - Who is it for? Personal brand / creator: Yes. A person is tracked like any brand: your name and its spellings, your website and the people you compete with for the same questions. Also compare: Mencoro, Otterly.AI. - Who is it for? Resell the software under my own brand: Yes. With full white label your clients log in at your own domain and never see Mencoro: your logo, colors and font on the platform, the report exports and the emails. You set your own price to them, and every client project is unlimited. Also compare: Mencoro, SE Ranking, AgencyAnalytics. - Who is it for? API or data to build my own tracker: Yes. The REST API gives you every answer, mention, citation and metric, with an OpenAPI contract, and embedded dashboards signed from your backend put them inside your own product. Also compare: Mencoro, DataForSEO. - Who is it for? Enterprise marketing team: Partly. Mencoro handles large prompt sets: up to 25,000 checks a month on the €799 plan, and Enterprise volume with a dedicated account manager beyond that. Large brands that want an enterprise-only platform usually also evaluate Profound. Also compare: Profound, Mencoro Enterprise, Semrush. - Who is it for? Local business: Not for city-level local SEO. Mencoro sets the location by country, with no city or device targeting. A local business can still track prompts that name its city (“best dentist in Austin”), but for map pack and city grid rankings a local tool such as Local Falcon or BrightLocal fits better. Also compare: Local Falcon, BrightLocal. - What's your main goal? Whether ChatGPT recommends my business or brand: Yes. Mencoro records every brand an answer names and classifies each mention into one of five types, from a direct recommendation to a passing reference, with its position in the answer and a 0 to 100 favorability score. You see whether ChatGPT recommends you, not only whether it names you. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, Otterly.AI. - What's your main goal? Monitor competitors and share of voice: Yes. Add as many competitors as you want, each with its names and domains. Share of voice is weighted by the quality of each mention, and every answer lists the brands the AI names that you do not track yet, so a new rival shows up before it takes the category. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, Profound. - What's your main goal? Whether my website gets cited in ChatGPT answers: Yes. Every answer is stored with its sources. For ChatGPT they include the pages its web search retrieved even when the text does not cite them, which is where you find the sites that shape the answer. Mencoro shows how often your domain is cited and which of your pages. Also compare: Mencoro, Profound, Ahrefs Brand Radar. - What's your main goal? Monitor sentiment and incorrect brand information: Yes. Every mention of your brand gets a favorability score and the full answer text is saved, so you can read exactly what ChatGPT says about your prices or features and catch a wrong claim. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI. - What's your main goal? Keyword rankings and AI search visibility for SEO: Yes. The same project tracks your Google top 10 for keywords next to AI Overview and AI Mode for the same searches, so you see when you rank and the AI answer still names someone else. Also compare: Mencoro, Semrush, Ahrefs. - What's your main goal? Build an automated monitoring dashboard or API: Yes. Everything in the app is in the REST API, with an OpenAPI contract, and in an MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT and other assistants, so your own dashboard reads the data with no CSV exports. Also compare: Mencoro, Profound. - What's your main goal? Track AI bots crawling my website and technical access: Yes, for free. The AI crawler checker tells you which AI bots your robots.txt lets in, the log file analyzer shows which ones actually visited, and the AI crawler index lists every bot with a way to verify it is real. Also compare: Mencoro free tools. - What's your main goal? Get my brand recommended by ChatGPT and other AI tools: Partly. Mencoro tells you what to fix: the prompts where competitors appear and you do not, and the sites the AI cites in those answers. The fix is content and mentions on those sites. Growwer, from the same company, places articles on the media that AI engines cite. Also compare: Mencoro with Growwer, Scrunch, AthenaHQ. - What's your main goal? Offer AI visibility reporting to clients: Yes. Each client is its own project and sees only its data, and the white label puts your brand on the dashboards, report exports and emails. Projects are unlimited on every plan, so a new client costs only its checks. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, Semrush. - What's your main goal? Measure AI-driven traffic and conversions: No. Mencoro measures whether and how AI names and cites you, not the visits that follow. ChatGPT visits arrive in Google Analytics 4 tagged utm_source=chatgpt.com, so measure traffic and revenue there and use Mencoro to explain why it moves. Also compare: Google Analytics 4, Mencoro. - What's your main goal? Generate and optimize content: No. Mencoro does not write or rewrite content. It tells you which prompts you are missing and which pages the AI cites for them, which is the brief; a content tool does the writing. Also compare: Writesonic, AirOps, Surfer. - What's your main goal? Negative mentions, reviews, social media, and PR issues: No. Mencoro reads AI answers, not social networks, reviews or news. For social listening and PR alerts use a tool such as Brand24, and keep Mencoro for what ChatGPT and Google's AI say about you. Also compare: Brand24. - What's your monthly budget? Free: Partly. Mencoro has no free plan; the cheapest one is €15 a month. Its free tools need no sign-up: the AI visibility checker asks ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity three buyer questions about your category, and there are free checkers for ChatGPT, Perplexity and AI Overviews. A one-off check is a snapshot, not a trend. Also compare: Mencoro free tools, Ahrefs AI Visibility Checker, HubSpot AEO Grader. - What's your monthly budget? Under $30/month: Yes. Mencoro plans in that range: €15 (200 checks), €29 (400 checks). €29 tracks 20 prompts on five engines every week, with every feature included. Also compare: Mencoro, Otterly.AI. - What's your monthly budget? Under $50/month: Yes. Mencoro plans in that range: €15 (200 checks), €29 (400 checks), €49 (1,000 checks). €49 tracks 50 prompts on five engines every week, with every feature included. Also compare: Mencoro, Otterly.AI. - What's your monthly budget? $30–$100/month: Yes. Mencoro plans in that range: €29 (400 checks), €49 (1,000 checks), €79 (2,000 checks), €99 (3,000 checks). €99 tracks 150 prompts on five engines every week, with every feature included. Also compare: Mencoro, Otterly.AI, Peec AI. - What's your monthly budget? Under $100/month: Yes. Mencoro plans in that range: €15 (200 checks), €29 (400 checks), €49 (1,000 checks), €79 (2,000 checks), €99 (3,000 checks). €99 tracks 150 prompts on five engines every week, with every feature included. Also compare: Mencoro, Otterly.AI, Peec AI. - What's your monthly budget? $50–$150/month: Yes. Mencoro plans in that range: €79 (2,000 checks), €99 (3,000 checks), €162 (5,000 checks). €162 tracks 250 prompts on five engines every week, with every feature included. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI. - What's your monthly budget? $100–$300/month: Yes. Mencoro plans in that range: €162 (5,000 checks). €162 tracks 250 prompts on five engines every week, with every feature included. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, Semrush. - What's your monthly budget? $100–$500/month: Yes. Mencoro plans in that range: €162 (5,000 checks), €319 (10,000 checks). €319 tracks 500 prompts on five engines every week, with every feature included. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, Profound. - What's your monthly budget? $500+/month: Yes. The largest plan is €799 a month for 25,000 checks, 1,250 prompts on five engines every week, and Enterprise adds custom volume and a dedicated account manager. At this budget, compare it with the enterprise platforms on depth of analysis, not on price. Also compare: Mencoro Enterprise, Profound. - Which AI platforms matter most? All major AI engines, including Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude: Almost. Mencoro tracks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overview, Google AI Mode, Google search and Google Shopping. It does not track the Gemini app or Copilot; Google's AI Overview and AI Mode, which run on Gemini models, are covered. The free AI visibility checker does ask Gemini for a one-off check. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI. - Which AI platforms matter most? ChatGPT only: Yes. ChatGPT is asked with web search on, as a user gets it, and its sources are saved. With ChatGPT alone the €15 plan covers 50 prompts checked every week. See the ChatGPT rank tracker. Also compare: Mencoro, Otterly.AI, Profound. - Which AI platforms matter most? ChatGPT and Perplexity: Yes. Both run on the same prompts and countries, and each answer keeps its sources, so you compare which sites each engine trusts. Also compare: Mencoro, Otterly.AI, Peec AI. - Which AI platforms matter most? ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews / AI Mode: Yes. ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overview and AI Mode run on the same prompts, and Google search can be added for the same keywords. AI Mode is not available in France or Cuba. Also compare: Mencoro, Semrush, Peec AI. - Which AI platforms matter most? Google AI Overviews and AI Mode: Yes. Mencoro tracks AI Overview and AI Mode separately, because they often cite different sources, next to the classic top 10 for the same search. Google shows an AI Overview only for some searches, and the check records when there is none. See the AI Overview tracker. Also compare: Mencoro, Semrush, Ahrefs. - Which AI platforms matter most? ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude: Partly: ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity yes, the Gemini app no. Claude answers come from Anthropic's API with web search, in 36 countries, and each Claude pass counts as five checks. See the Claude rank tracker. If Gemini is a must, also look at Peec AI. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI. - Which AI platforms matter most? Not sure yet: Start with Mencoro's defaults: ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI Overview, AI Mode and Google search. After a month, drop the engines where your buyers are not. Also compare: Mencoro, Otterly.AI. - Which market do you want to track? Spain / Europe: Yes. Mencoro is built in Barcelona by Virality Media, and the site, the documentation and support are in Spanish. Each query is asked from Spain, in Spanish, and our weekly data studies already measure the Spanish market. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, Otterly.AI. - Which market do you want to track? United States: Yes. The United States is covered on every engine, Claude included. Also compare: Mencoro, Profound, Peec AI. - Which market do you want to track? Multiple international markets: Yes. A query can run in any of 196 countries, separately in each one and in that country's main language, so you compare markets side by side. You write the prompt once per language. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, Profound. - Which market do you want to track? Local SEO by city: No. Mencoro sets the location by country, with no city targeting. For rankings by city or map grid, use a local tool such as Local Falcon or BrightLocal. Also compare: Local Falcon, BrightLocal. - How many clients will you manage? 1–5: Yes. Projects are unlimited: you pay for prompts, not for clients. At 10 prompts per client on five engines every week, 5 clients fit in the €49 plan (1,000 checks a month). Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, AgencyAnalytics. - How many clients will you manage? 1–10: Yes. Projects are unlimited: you pay for prompts, not for clients. At 10 prompts per client on five engines every week, 10 clients fit in the €79 plan (2,000 checks a month). Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, AgencyAnalytics. - How many clients will you manage? 6–20: Yes. Projects are unlimited: you pay for prompts, not for clients. At 10 prompts per client on five engines every week, 20 clients fit in the €162 plan (5,000 checks a month). Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, AgencyAnalytics. - How many clients will you manage? 21–50: Yes. Projects are unlimited: you pay for prompts, not for clients. At 10 prompts per client on five engines every week, 50 clients fit in the €319 plan (10,000 checks a month). Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, AgencyAnalytics. - How many clients will you manage? More than 50: Yes. At 10 prompts per client on five engines every week, the €799 plan covers 125 clients; beyond that, Enterprise adds custom volume. Projects are unlimited: you pay for prompts, not for clients. Also compare: Mencoro, Peec AI, AgencyAnalytics. - Where do you want to use it? Claude chat: Yes. Add Mencoro as a custom connector in Claude (web, Desktop or mobile), sign in, and ask Claude for your share of voice, the prompts you lost or the sources cited, straight from your data. It works in ChatGPT too. See the MCP server. Also compare: Mencoro. - Where do you want to use it? Claude Code (agents, MCP and automations): Yes. The same MCP server works in Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and Gemini CLI, so an agent can read your visibility data, run checks and build reports on its own. Also compare: Mencoro. - Where do you want to use it? Standalone SEO dashboard, with Claude as support: Yes. The Mencoro app is the dashboard, with every engine, competitor and metric, and the MCP server lets you ask Claude about the same data when you need it. Also compare: Mencoro, Semrush. ## Solutions - [Ecommerce](https://mencoro.com/solutions/ecommerce/) - [Content & media](https://mencoro.com/solutions/media/) - [PR & brand](https://mencoro.com/solutions/pr-brand/) - [Marketing](https://mencoro.com/solutions/marketing/) - [Link building](https://mencoro.com/solutions/link-building/) - [Customer success](https://mencoro.com/solutions/customer-success/) - [Agencies](https://mencoro.com/solutions/agencies/) ## Free tools - [AI visibility checker](https://mencoro.com/tools/ai-visibility-checker/) - [AI Overview checker](https://mencoro.com/tools/ai-overview-checker/) - [Google rank checker](https://mencoro.com/tools/google-rank-checker/) - [ChatGPT rank checker](https://mencoro.com/tools/chatgpt-rank-checker/) - [Perplexity rank checker](https://mencoro.com/tools/perplexity-rank-checker/) - [AI crawler checker](https://mencoro.com/tools/ai-crawler-checker/) - [Share of voice calculator](https://mencoro.com/tools/share-of-voice-calculator/) - [robots.txt tester](https://mencoro.com/tools/robots-txt-tester/) - [Schema validator](https://mencoro.com/tools/schema-validator/) - [Log file analyzer](https://mencoro.com/tools/log-file-analyzer/) - [llms.txt generator](https://mencoro.com/tools/llms-txt-generator/) ## Data studies - [Top cited domains in AI](https://mencoro.com/data-studies/top-cited-domains/) - [ChatGPT](https://mencoro.com/data-studies/top-cited-domains/chatgpt/) - [Google AI Overviews](https://mencoro.com/data-studies/top-cited-domains/google-ai-overviews/) - [Google AI Mode](https://mencoro.com/data-studies/top-cited-domains/google-ai-mode/) - [Perplexity](https://mencoro.com/data-studies/top-cited-domains/perplexity/) - [Tools AI recommends](https://mencoro.com/data-studies/tools-ai-recommends/) - [AI crawler access](https://mencoro.com/data-studies/ai-crawler-access/) - [Spanish media cited by AI](https://mencoro.com/data-studies/top-spanish-media/) ## AI crawler index - [AI crawler index](https://mencoro.com/ai-crawler-index/): every AI crawler's user agent, purpose, robots.txt behavior and how to verify it ## Best tools - [The best AEO tools in 2026, compared on price and engines](https://mencoro.com/best/aeo-tools/): The best answer engine optimization (AEO) tools compared: list prices, engines covered, prompt limits and who each tool fits, checked in October 2026. - [The best AI brand monitoring tools for ChatGPT and Google AI](https://mencoro.com/best/ai-brand-monitoring-tools/): AI brand monitoring: 13 tools compared to track brand mentions in ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI, with prices, sentiment and alerts. - [The best AI Overview trackers, compared](https://mencoro.com/best/ai-overview-trackers/): The best AI Overview trackers compared: which ones detect the overview, which read the citations, and how to track Google AI Overviews properly. - [The best AI visibility tools in 2026, compared side by side](https://mencoro.com/best/ai-visibility-tools/): The best AI visibility tools in 2026 compared on price, engines and API, to track your brand in ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI.
