AI reputation management in 2026 splits into four price tiers: one-shot audits ($9–99), self-serve monitoring (~$3–30/mo), AEO monitoring platforms like Profound, Otterly and Peec ($89–499/mo), and full-service ORM agencies ($1,500–10,000/mo). The costliest mistake is buying the wrong tier — most small businesses should start with a one-shot report, not a retainer. Here's what each tier actually buys and who should pay for it.
Profound, Otterly, Peec, Scrunch and AI Peekaboo are the names that come up when you shop AI visibility monitoring — and they serve very different buyers. Profound is enterprise (custom, five-figure/yr); Scrunch, acquired by Sitecore in June 2026, starts at $250/mo; Peec is mid-market ($95–495/mo); Peekaboo ($50+) targets agencies; Otterly is the cheapest entry ($29+). We compare 2026 pricing, engine coverage and the add-on fees that quietly double the bill, then make the honest case for the wedge: if you just need a baseline, a $29 one-shot report beats a subscription you may never act on.
The AI visibility & reputation tool market splits in two: enterprise monitoring platforms ($89–500+/mo like Profound, Peec, Scrunch, Otterly) and cheap one-shot audits ($10–29 like Quoted.so, AuditAE, monitoraeo). We review 11 real tools with a price table, an honest verdict on each, and who they're genuinely for. Most small businesses need a one-shot read first — not a subscription.

A side-by-side comparison of the AI 'wait-state' ad platforms that appeared in June 2026 — Kickbacks.ai, IdleAds, Idlen, Sponsoric, and picoads. We rank them on revenue share, estimated CPM, integration model, and security risk, run the honest earnings math, and give a clear recommendation by user type. The takeaway: the rev-share percentage matters less than whether you own the surface the ad appears on.
