Comparison
onpage.app vs Profound
Profound is the most established AEO tool on the market. It's built for marketing leaders who need visibility reports. We're built for the operators who need to do something with those reports.

- +Agent system on Growth tier that auto-generates AEO content briefs from citation data.
- +Opportunity alerts that flag prompts where competitors are cited but you're not.
- +Google Analytics integration for correlating AI visibility with site traffic.
- +Largest dataset in the AEO space — they've been tracking longer than most competitors.

Where it falls short
- -Growth tier ($399/mo) is the minimum viable plan. Starter ($99/mo) is ChatGPT-only, which is too narrow to be useful.
- -No content execution tools. You get briefs, but you need a separate tool or team to act on them.
- -One website per account. Agency use requires separate accounts per client — no multi-workspace support.
- -Users report inconsistency in data and difficulty translating dashboard insights into concrete next steps.
- -Demo-only sales model. You can't try the tool without scheduling a call first.
Where onpage.app is different
We start at $49/mo with multi-model support, not $399. We generate specific page-level recommendations with every audit — not just visibility data, but a concrete action plan. You see the raw LLM responses behind every score. No demo calls, no opaque pricing.
