Otterly AI is cheaper per month. That is not the whole sum.
Otterly AI is the cheapest serious option in this category: $29 a month for daily prompt tracking across four engines. If what you want is a recurring reading, it wins on price and we will say so. We sell something else — a one-time change to a page you own — and the two are not interchangeable.

On price per unit of monitoring, Otterly beats us and beats most of this category. If monitoring is what you need, buy it from them. This page exists so you can tell whether monitoring is what you need.
What Otterly AI does well
- The lowest published entry price in the category, by a wide margin
- Daily tracking across four engines on the cheapest tier
- Every tier published, so you can plan without asking
What we do — and what we deliberately do not
We take one page you own and run eight checks on it: whether a retrieval crawler can reach it, whether llms.txt is a real file rather than a fallback page, whether the page carries structured data, whether it is long enough to be worth quoting, whether there is anything question-shaped to lift, and three more. Then we hand you the files that fix what the checks found — llms.txt, llms-full.txt, the AI-crawler block for robots.txt, and JSON-LD.
We do not monitor, and we do not track your brand across assistants. That is a different product on a different price model, and several companies on this page sell it well. What we sell is a change to a page, delivered once.
our prices — $0 / $29 / $79 a month · fix pack $199 once · done-for-you $599 once
We publish every price on the pricing page, including the one-time job, because a comparison page that hides its own number is not a comparison.
Where the two mechanisms differ
Otterly AI tells you where you stand
- Renews monthly; the reporting stops when you stop paying
- The output is a dashboard, and a dashboard does not change a page
- Worth it when the problem is that nobody knows the answer
We change a page you own
- Paid once; nothing renews and nothing expires
- The output is files on your site, which you keep
- Worth it when the problem is that the page cannot be lifted
Which one fits your situation
You want to watch a number over time and $29 a month is the right budget
Your site is already readable and you just need to know whether it is working
You want the cheapest possible entry into the category
The number already told you the answer and you need the page changed
You would rather spend once than $348 a year to keep reading the same result
You want a deliverable you can hand to a developer
The first three are real. If any of them describes you, buy the subscription — it is the right product for that problem, and we are not going to pretend otherwise to win a sale.
Questions this comparison raises
Is Otterly AI a competitor of yours?
Partly. It competes with the monitoring half of what people expect from this category; it does not compete with the work. If you only want monitoring, it is the better buy and we say so on the page.
$29 a month is less than your fix pack. Why?
Because they sell a subscription and we sell a job. $29 a month is $348 a year and it renews; the fix pack is $199 once. Over two years the cheaper-sounding option is the more expensive one, unless you actually want the dashboard.
Do you have a dashboard?
No. We have a report and a set of files. If a dashboard is what you are shopping for, this is the wrong page and Otterly is the right product.
