Otterly.AI

AI search monitoring

Otterly.AI is a monitoring-first platform for AI search. It tracks how brands are mentioned and websites cited across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and Microsoft Copilot on every plan, with Claude, Google AI Mode and Gemini as paid add-ons, refreshing daily with unlimited team members.

What Otterly.AI covers outside AI answers

Otterly.AI’s work beyond monitoring is research and diagnosis. AI Prompt Research maps the prompts, topics and intent patterns behind answers in a category, while the Content Audit checks whether crawlers can reach a page, predicts how its content will perform and turns the result into a brief. GEO recommendations sit on top, alongside Agent Analytics and tracking of ChatGPT Ads.

It stops short of classic SEO and of writing. Keyword research and backlinks are not described, rank tracking covers AI answers only, and the output is a brief rather than a finished draft, so the article itself gets written somewhere else. Every plan includes unlimited team members, and API and MCP access start on Standard at $189 a month, which makes it simple to feed the numbers into reports a team already keeps.

AI answer tracking

Tracking starts on Lite at $29 a month with 15 prompts, refreshed daily across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and Microsoft Copilot. Claude, Google AI Mode and Gemini cost extra on every plan; Claude alone adds $29, $109 or $439 a month on Lite, Standard or Premium. Standard lifts the allowance to 100 prompts at $189 and Premium to 400 at $489, with Enterprise custom-priced from 1,000 search prompts. A year for one marketer tracking 50 prompts comes to $2,268 on Standard, and an agency with three brands and 300 prompts pays $5,868 on the Premium plan.

Pros

  • The lowest paid entry point among dedicated trackers, with daily refresh on every plan.
  • Unlimited team members, so everyone who acts on the data can see it.
  • API and MCP access from the middle plan for teams that want the data elsewhere.

Cons

  • Claude tracking costs $29, $109 or $439 a month on top of Lite, Standard or Premium.
  • The $29 Lite plan tracks 15 prompts, too few for a steady mention rate across a category.
  • Its product pages describe audits, briefs and recommendations rather than drafting or publishing full articles.
  • Keyword research and backlink tools are not described on its product pages.
