Capability comparison
| Capability | GetCited.me | Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit |
|---|---|---|
| AI surfaces tracked | 5 on paid plans | 4 at the entry tier: ChatGPT, Google AI, Gemini, Perplexity. More surfaces (incl. Claude, Grok) only on the Enterprise AI tier |
| Refresh cadence | Daily on paid plans | Daily rankings at the entry tier |
| Deployable GEO artifacts | llms.txt, ai.txt, robots rules, JSON-LD, checklist | Audits AI readiness; no file generation in this toolkit. llms.txt readiness monitoring exists in a separate Enterprise module |
| Brand-confusion detection | Entity Clarify with generated disambiguation assets | Not a stated feature |
| Community reply drafting | Reddit, Stack Overflow and Hacker News — threads discovered for you, then drafted with a critic loop | Not in this toolkit (their PR toolkit targets journalists, not forums) |
| Content generation | Briefs and full articles, publish-ready handoff | Not in this toolkit — the AI article generator is a separate Content Toolkit purchase |
| Entry price | Free tier; paid up to $249/mo per website (see note below) | $99/mo per domain billed annually, 25 custom prompts, 1 domain. 7-day trial with card required |
Which one fits you?
Choose Semrush if…
You want AI visibility as one tab inside a suite that also does technical audits, backlinks, local and PR — and you value their very large historical dataset. If you are already paying Semrush, the marginal cost of adding this is low.
Choose GetCited.me if…
You want the AI-search half done properly: more surfaces at the entry level, deployable artifacts, brand-confusion detection, and community drafting — without buying three separate toolkits to get content and tracking in one loop.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the $99/mo tier actually include?
At the entry tier: four AI surfaces (ChatGPT, Google AI, Gemini, Perplexity), daily rankings, 25 custom prompts and one domain. The $99 is per domain and billed annually, and the 7-day trial asks for a card. Checked 2026-08-09 — confirm on their pricing page before buying.
Does Semrush publish its own llms.txt?
Yes, and it deserves credit: Semrush is one of the few vendors in this comparison set that serves a real llms.txt of its own. Among the big SEO suites it is the most AI-crawler-forward posture we found.
Which engines are gated to Enterprise?
The entry tier covers ChatGPT, Google AI, Gemini and Perplexity. Additional surfaces, including Claude and Grok, appear only on the Enterprise AI tier — so check which engines your buyers actually use before picking a tier.
Why do the extra toolkits matter?
Because one workflow can span several purchases. The AI article generator sits in a separate Content Toolkit, and llms.txt readiness monitoring sits in a separate Enterprise module, so track → fix → write is not one line item. That is the trade-off for suite breadth, not a defect.
