Findabl

Findabl is AI Citation Intelligence: measurement plus the action layer above it. We send real prompts to ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude, then produce Actions across four workstreams (entity anchoring, citation velocity, on-page content, measurement loop). Honest baseline, homonym detection, per-target competitive diagnosis, confidence intervals after four weeks of tracking, and one-click self-audit publishing. No modeling, no estimation.

A

AthenaHQ

AthenaHQ is an AI visibility platform that captures real AI responses across roughly eight engines, with hallucination detection and persona and geo views. One credit equals one real AI answer, saved with its placement and citations, so its tracking is grounded in real responses rather than estimates. It has a self-serve tier around $295 per month, a Growth plan around $545, and an Enterprise tier at $2,000 and up for larger teams.

The Verdict

AthenaHQ is a strong, broad-coverage option. It captures real AI responses across about eight engines, adds hallucination detection, and offers self-serve plans around $295 per month up to an Enterprise tier. Findabl competes on three things. First, price: a free scan and self-serve plans from $49 per month, well below AthenaHQ's entry tier. Second, transparency: our blended GEO Score and capture method are published, not gated. Third, a long-term, auditable archive: every raw AI response is stored so regulated teams in pharma, healthcare, financial services, and legal can show their work. Add Claude alongside ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity, daily monitoring on paid plans, and Actions across four workstreams, and Findabl is the accessible, audit-ready choice for smaller and mid-market teams.

Market Context (2026)

AthenaHQ is often grouped with broad AI visibility platforms like Profound. Both AthenaHQ and Findabl ground their tracking in real AI responses rather than estimates. Findabl's focus is a lower entry price, published methodology, and a stored, auditable archive aimed at smaller and mid-market teams in regulated industries.
