Scrunch AI pricing and 7 Scrunch alternatives
Scrunch starts at €267 a month, or €223 billed yearly, for 350 prompts and 7 engines. What that buys, who it suits, and seven cheaper AI visibility tools.
By Denis VeisllariPrices checked on
Scrunch is one of the more expensive AI visibility trackers. Starter is €267 a month, or €223 billed yearly, and buys 350 custom prompts plus 1,000 ready-made industry prompts, 3 seats and 7 engines including Claude and Meta. MCP works on every plan. The data API is Enterprise only. The 7-day trial needs no card.
Short answer. Scrunch earns its price if you want persona-based prompts and a large prompt set you did not have to write. If you are paying €267 a month for 350 prompts and only use 40 of them, almost everything below does that job for less.
We make zaDojo, one of the alternatives. Scrunch facts come from Scrunch's own pricing page and documentation on the date shown above. Where a vendor lists prices in US dollars, we show them in euros converted at 1 EUR = 1.1225 USD (ECB rate, 19 October 2026), so the amount you pay depends on your card's exchange rate.

When Scrunch is the right choice
- You want persona-based prompts, where the same question is asked as different kinds of buyer.
- You want a large industry prompt set on day one instead of writing your own.
- You need Claude and Meta tracked, which most of this market does not cover.
- Three seats is enough, and you do not need the data API.
If none of those is true, you are mostly paying for prompt volume.

zaDojo
Plans from €10 a month with 10,000 credits included, and about 2 credits (€0.002) per prompt per engine on scheduled checks, so 50 prompts on two engines checked weekly costs roughly 850 credits a month.

MCP is on every account including the trial, so an agent can run the tracking.

Choose it if engine breadth matters more than a monthly billing option.
Otterly

Choose it if you want Copilot coverage and quotas you can count.
Geoptie
€44 a month, or €37 billed yearly, for 15 prompts and 2 brands, each tracking any 4 of 7 engines across 123 countries with unlimited seats. Professional at €88 adds 100 prompts, the REST API and MCP.

Peec AI
€85 a month for 50 prompts on 3 engines, with unlimited users. The only tool here that tracks Naver AI, with an AI shopping view at SKU level.
Choose it if you sell in Korea or sell products.

Choose it if your team already works in Semrush.
AthenaHQ
A free Essential tier with 300 credits on 5 engines, then Starter at €263 a month for 3,600 credits on 11 engines with unlimited seats. One credit is one AI response.
Choose it if you want to start free and need many engines later. Plans and alternatives are in AthenaHQ pricing and alternatives.
How to pick
- Count the prompts you will actually write. Most companies need 20 to 50 buying questions. Scrunch's 350 is only value if you use them.
- Check whether you need the industry prompt set. It is the main thing you cannot get cheaply elsewhere.
- Check engine coverage against your buyers. Claude and Meta are Scrunch strengths; ChatGPT and Google matter for almost everyone.
- Decide whether an agent should run it. zaDojo and Rankscale include MCP at the bottom of the price range; Otterly and Geoptie charge for it.
- Run a month before committing. Answers move day to day, and one week of data is noise.
Twelve trackers side by side are in best AI visibility tools, and the method for changing what the answers say is in what AEO is and how to get cited by ChatGPT.
