The best AI visibility trackers in 2026: ChatGPT, AI Overviews and AI Mode

The best AI visibility trackers in 2026 are Mencoro, SE Ranking, Semrush, Ahrefs Brand Radar, Peec AI and Otterly.AI. All of them check on a schedule whether ChatGPT, Google and the other engines name your brand when someone asks about what you sell. They differ in which engines they cover, whether they read the sources each answer cites, which country they ask from and what they cost. Mencoro gives the most for the price: it tracks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, AI Overviews, AI Mode and the classic Google results from €15 a month.

What an AI visibility tracker measures

A tracker runs the same questions again and again (the prompts your customers would ask) in each engine and stores the answer. From those answers it works out five things:

  • Mention rate: the share of answers that name your brand.
  • Position: whether you are named first or fifth.
  • Sentiment: whether you are described well, neutrally or badly.
  • Share of voice: your weight against the competitors you track.
  • Cited sources: which sites the AI uses to build the answer. This is the most useful figure, because it tells you where you need to appear.

Answers change from one run to the next even for the same question, so the trend over several weeks matters more than a single screenshot.

The best trackers, one by one

1. Mencoro

Mencoro tracks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, AI Overviews, Google AI Mode and the classic results in one project, each engine separately. For every question it stores whether you are named, in which position, with what tone and which sources are cited, and turns that into mention rate, sentiment and share of voice against your competitors. It asks from 196 countries, has an API and an MCP server to take the data into your reports, and starts at €15 a month, the lowest entry price on this list with every engine included. It also has free checkers for a first look.

2. SE Ranking

SE Ranking adds AI tracking to a full SEO suite: AI Overviews included, a dedicated AI Mode tracker and a wider AI module. A good fit if your rank tracking already lives there and you want AI in the same reports. From €109 a month (€87.20 billed yearly).

3. Semrush

Semrush tracks Google AI Mode and ChatGPT inside Position Tracking and Prompt Tracking, with your visibility, mentions and average position. The draw is having it next to the keyword data you already pay for. The SEO plan is €134 a month, and full AI tracking comes in the Semrush One bundles.

4. Ahrefs Brand Radar

Brand Radar measures visibility in AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot from a large set of search-backed prompts, and from the Lite plan you can add your own. Its strength is comparing any brand, not only yours. It costs $199 a month on top of the Ahrefs plan.

5. Peec AI

Peec AI is an AI-only visibility tool with AI Mode tracking, mentions and competitor performance. It suits marketing teams that want a dedicated tool. From €85 a month for 50 prompts.

6. Otterly.AI

Otterly.AI is the cheapest way into a dedicated tool, from $29 a month. It works for measuring a handful of questions; once brands or markets grow, the options with more engines per project pay off.

Free checkers to start with

If you do not know yet whether AI names you, start with a free check and decide afterwards whether you need a tracker:

  • Growwer's AI visibility checker asks ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity about your industry and tells you whether they name you, who they name instead and which sites they cite.
  • Mencoro's free checkers and Ahrefs' free AI Mode tracker show today's answer for a few searches.

How to choose an AI visibility tracker

  • Engines. ChatGPT, AI Overviews and AI Mode give different answers to the same question. Check that the tracker covers the ones your customers use.
  • Sources. Ask to see the sites each answer cites in a real trial. Without that you know you are missing, but not what to do.
  • Country and language. Answers change with where the question comes from. If you sell in Spain, the tracker has to ask from Spain, in Spanish.
  • Price per question. Compare how many prompts and engines each plan includes, not just the entry price.

After measuring: how to show up more in AI

The tracker tells you which sites AI cites when it talks about your industry. To show up more, your brand has to be on those sites: news outlets, comparisons and directories. Our study of the outlets AI cites lists the ones that appear most in answers, and LLM SEO covers how to get mentioned on them. For AI the mention counts even if the link is nofollow.
