The honest answer on price
The cheapest AI visibility tools, and what each price actually buys
The tools that tell you whether ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity name your product mostly start between $29 and $99 a month, and climb into enterprise contracts from there. Glotier Fast is $9.99, and the first check is free. Here is what you give up at each price, and what you do not.
- Free
- the first check, no card and no account
- $9.99
- Glotier Fast, the lowest real paid tier
- $29+

What the category actually costs
Most of the well-known trackers hide their price behind a demo, which is usually a sign the number is not $9.99. The ones that publish it start around $29 a month at the very bottom, sit at $95 to $99 for the tools marketing teams reach for, and run to a few hundred a month and then enterprise pricing at the top.
We keep the full side-by-side, with the prices verified rather than guessed, on the pricing comparison page. The short version: the floor for a real paid plan in this category is not cheap, and a lot of what you pay for above it is seats and dashboards you will not open.
What 'cheap' usually costs you
A cheaper plan in this category normally means one of three quiet trade-offs. It checks fewer AI engines, so you see one opinion when the three disagree with each other more than they agree. It tracks only your brand name, so it reports nothing while every answer in your category names three competitors and never you. Or it gives you a score with no sources, which tells you that you have a problem and nothing about how to fix it.
The trade-off that matters is the sources. A number going up or down is a mood. The list of pages an answer was built from is a task you can actually do.
What Glotier Fast gives you at $9.99
Fast runs a daily check on ChatGPT and Gemini for one product, using the real questions a buyer asks in your category rather than your brand name alone. It shows you whether you were named, which competitors were named instead, and the exact source pages each answer was built from, because being in those pages is how anyone gets named at all.
It also writes the article from what it measured that day and drafts the posts that point at it, which you approve and post yourself. The one thing it does not do is promise you a ranking, because nobody honest can.
When it is worth paying more
Two honest reasons to step up to Solo at $39. You want Perplexity as a third assistant, which Fast does not include. Or you run more than one product and want them all tracked. Everything else that the pricier tools sell, more seats, a heavier dashboard, is not a reason on its own.

Questions people ask
- What is the cheapest AI visibility tool?
- For a paid plan, Glotier Fast at $9.99 a month is the lowest real tier we know of: the next cheapest published price in the category starts around $29. For a free check with no account, Glotier's own report costs nothing and shows you the sources, not just a score.
- Is there a genuinely free AI visibility tool?
- The free checks are real but they are a snapshot, one measurement on one day. They are the right place to start and they tell you whether you have a problem. Watching whether the answer changes over time is the paid part, because it costs money to run a live search across the assistants every day.
- Why is Glotier so much cheaper than the others?
- Because the free report is deterministic and asks no model anything, so it costs us almost nothing, and because Fast is deliberately light: one product, two assistants, no Perplexity and no daily Citation Agent. It is not a stripped demo, it is a real plan sized for the buyer who wants to start today without a $99 contract.
- Do I need one of the expensive enterprise tools?
- Only if you need what they actually add, which is seats, white-label client reports and volume. The measurement itself, whether the assistants name you and why, is the same job at any price. Start at the bottom, prove it is worth it on your own numbers, and step up when a real limit bites.
