Roundup · 2026

Best ChatGPT brand monitoring tools

When a buyer asks an assistant what to use, a handful of products get named and the rest are never considered. We measured how short that list is: across 40 software buying questions the average answer named seven or eight products, and 47% of everything named appeared in only one of the three assistants we asked. These tools tell you which side of that you are on. Entry prices below are as published on 2026-07-17.

1

Glotier

Free to start

Works out what your product is, generates the questions your buyers would type, and puts each one to ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity as a live web query rather than from training memory. Shows which of the three named you, which competitors were named instead, and every source page each answer was built from. Whether you were named is decided by looking for your name in the answer text, not by asking a model for its opinion. Free with no account and no card.

Best for: Anyone who wants the source list, not just a score. The other tools here that show which pages fed an answer, across more than one assistant, start at $95 and $99 a month.

We built this, so weigh it accordingly. Everything above is checkable in about two minutes, and the method is in our guide to monitoring this properly.

What we measured, 31 July 2026

  • Of 259 domains AI cited in the AI visibility category on 31 July 2026, 235 allowed every AI crawler.
  • 18 of 244 of those sites block GPTBot but allow OAI-SearchBot, leaving ChatGPT search while opting out of training.
  • Only 5 of 259 cited domains block an AI search crawler by name, and all four are large publishers.

Sample: every domain an assistant actually cited across our own checks, not a top-100 list. Blocked means a whole-site disallow for the matching group, so partial rules are not counted and these figures understate blocking. 0 domain did not answer and is excluded rather than counted as open.
