SEO Joe, Profound, Peec AI and Otterly.AI all help businesses get recommended by ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, but they work differently. Profound targets enterprise teams, Peec AI and Otterly.AI focus on monitoring AI mentions, and SEO Joe checks your visibility and then fixes your website and plans where to get mentioned. SEO Joe serves businesses worldwide, mostly in the USA.
The four tools at a glance
- Profound: an enterprise GEO platform. Known for granular prompt-level tracking, sentiment analysis and competitor benchmarks across several AI assistants.
- Peec AI: a GEO tracking tool aimed at lean marketing teams. It monitors citations and share of voice across major AI assistants and turns the data into a prioritised to-do list.
- Otterly.AI: an AI visibility tracker that monitors brand mentions, link citations and sentiment across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Copilot.
- SEO Joe: an AI SEO, GEO and AEO assistant. It asks ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini the questions your customers ask, shows who they recommend instead of you, checks your website's search basics, and gives you a short prioritised fix list. With GitHub connected it can prepare the website changes for you to approve, and it finds the directories and articles where you should get mentioned.
Where SEO Joe is different
- It does the work, not just the reporting. Many tools show you a dashboard. SEO Joe turns the findings into fixes and, where it can, makes the change.
- It reads your real Google data. With Google Search Console and Analytics connected, it uses real searches and visits, including visits from AI assistants.
- It's built for businesses without a marketing team. The output is a short plan in plain words, not a wall of charts.
Where the others are stronger
- Profound goes deeper on enterprise-scale tracking, with many prompts and brands at once.
- Peec AI and Otterly.AI are focused monitoring tools. If all you want is to watch mentions over time, they are built for exactly that.
