Best tools to track ChatGPT brand mentions (2026 shortlist)

“Best ChatGPT rank tracker” searches are really about AI visibility: do models name you, cite you, and prefer a competitor on the prompts that drive pipeline. Google still indexes those queries, so this shortlist is written for that intent — using only tools we checked against live vendor sites.

Under $50/mo starting prices on our verified AI Visibility Monitoring list include MaxAEO (from $15), RankScale (from $20), Otterly.ai (from $25), and several others under $50. Entry price is not quality; check engine coverage and what the starter tier actually includes.

Often compared mid/enterprise names: Profound (from $99/mo, multi-engine AEO positioning) and Scrunch (from $250/mo on published pricing). Peec AI is another frequently searched visibility platform — open the live listing for current public plans and engines.

How we shortlist: same capability schema, no invented star ratings, unknown stays unknown. For the full filtered set use site search (“track my brand in ChatGPT”, “under $50 with a free trial”) or /category/ai-visibility-monitoring. Head-to-heads such as /compare/peec-ai-vs-profound only ship when both sides clear deep research.

If you only need a one-off check, start with free utilities in /category/free-tools-utilities, then graduate to a scheduled tracker once you know which prompts matter. Measurement without a prompt list is just noise.
