NEU Media Group runs the AI Visibility Monitor at $199 a month for one market and $349 for up to three. Software tools such as Otterly, Peec, AthenaHQ, and Profound charge $29 to $399 a month for a dashboard you configure and read yourself. The Monitor is managed: a buyer question set built from your trades and cities, four engines swept every month, named competitors, the exact answers quoted, and the top three gaps named in plain language.
Key Takeaways
- Single Market is $199 a month: 25 buyer questions, four engines, five competitors, monthly report.
- Multi Market is $349 a month: up to three metros, 50 questions, a competitor deep dive, and a quarterly strategy call.
- Every number is measured that month. We never estimate a citation we did not see.
- Measurement only. Nothing is sold inside the report, and many clients run it alone first.
NEU pricing vs the market
Two plans, sized by markets and questions.
| Plan | NEU price | Typical market |
|---|---|---|
| Single Market | $199 / mo | $29 to $189 / mo self serve |
| Multi Market | $349 / mo | $295 to $399 / mo self serve |
| First sweep | Free | Free trials |
Both plans are month to month. The first sweep is free for any company that asks, and it becomes month zero if you continue.

What drives the cost
- Markets. Each metro adds its own question set.
- Question count. More trades and cities mean more prompts per sweep.
- Competitors tracked. Five is standard; more is a custom set.
- Report depth. Multi Market adds the competitor deep dive and the strategy call.
- Engine costs. Four engines every month is the fixed floor.
How NEU keeps it below market
NEU built its own tracker to measure AI visibility for its clients, so the sweep, the archive, and the report already exist. The hard cost of a full four engine sweep is a few dollars, and the human time is reading the answers and writing the gap list. That is why a managed monitor can sit at the price of a mid tier self serve tool while covering four engines and a named competitor set.
Frequently asked questions
How much does AI visibility monitoring cost?
Self serve tools charge 29 to 399 dollars a month for a dashboard. NEU's managed AI Visibility Monitor is 199 dollars a month for one market or 349 for up to three, including a human written monthly report.
Which AI engines do you check?
ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity, each asked the same buyer questions every month. They disagree more than people expect, and the disagreements are where the opportunities are.
What is in the monthly report?
For each question, which engines named you, which named a competitor, and which named nobody. A share of voice line against up to five rivals, the exact answers quoted, and the top three gaps worth fixing first.
Do I need to buy AEO to use this?
No. The Monitor is measurement only. Plenty of clients run it for a quarter before deciding anything, and if you later buy a Visibility Engine plan the report is already included so you stop paying for it separately.
How is this different from Otterly or Peec?
Those are dashboards you configure and read. The Monitor uses buyer questions built from your trades and cities, tracks competitors you name, quotes the actual answers, and is written for an owner, not an analyst.
Can I see a sweep before paying?
Yes. The first sweep is free. Reply with your company and market and we send the answers.
