No fabricated competitor claims — just honest criteria

Otterly.ai is the cheapest way in: Lite is $29 a month for 15 prompts on ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and Copilot, Standard $189 for 100 prompts and Premium $489 for 400. Gemini and Google AI Mode are add-ons ($9 a month each on Lite, $59 on Standard), and so is Claude ($29 on Lite, $109 on Standard), per Otterly's pricing page in November 2026 — check it for current terms. Teams usually move on when 15 prompts can't cover their category, when the add-ons start to add up, or when they need to know what to do about the answers, not only see them.

The criteria

What to look for

Judge any tool — including ours — on the same lens.

  1. 1

    Enough questions to cover your category

    Otterly Lite tracks 15 prompts; the next step, Standard, is $189/month for 100 — still one of the lowest prices per prompt here.

    Aurvikon

    25 questions on Lite ($149) and 100 on Starter ($379), each asked every day. If price per prompt is all that matters, Otterly is hard to beat.

  2. 2

    Gemini and Claude included or added on

    On Otterly, Gemini and AI Mode are paid add-ons on every plan, and Claude costs $29/month extra on Lite and $109 on Standard.

    Aurvikon

    Gemini is included on Lite; Claude is included on Growth and Agency. Google AI Mode isn't tracked yet — Aurvikon tracks AI Overviews.

  3. 3

    Answers from live search

    Buyers see what an assistant finds when it searches the web first; an answer from model memory can't reflect last week's page.

    Aurvikon

    Every answer is recorded with the engine searching the web live. Answers from memory are never counted.

  4. 4

    From monitoring to a to-do list

    A citation gap tells you where you're missing; the work is getting onto the pages the AI reads instead.

    Aurvikon

    The Action Queue names those pages for each lost question, checks the task once you mark it done, and measures what changed.

  5. 5

    Brands and clients

    Agencies need separate workspaces per client and reports they can hand over as their own.

    Aurvikon

    Up to 10 brands on the Agency plan, client logins and white-label PDF reports.

When Aurvikon is the better fit than Otterly

  • You've outgrown 15 prompts and want Gemini without an add-on.
  • You want to know which pages to get onto, not only that you're missing.
  • You want each finished task checked and measured, so you can show what worked.
  • You manage several brands or clients and need white-label reports.
