What makes Ralf different — and better
Six real engines, not three
Ralf checks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews, Grok and Copilot on every plan. Most competitors track three. Each engine cites different sources, so three-engine coverage misses where you actually appear.
More than a tracker
Every Ralf plan pairs AI visibility with a technical SEO crawler and a prioritised weekly fix list, with Content and Outreach as add-on products. The pure trackers tell you that you're invisible; Ralf also does the work to fix it.
Cheaper where it counts
At 100 prompts — the tier everyone competes on — Ralf is $149 with six engines, versus $189–$399 elsewhere for the same prompt count and often fewer engines.
Honest, sustainable pricing
No card for the trial, no hidden per-engine upsells, and a price that reflects real cost. We'd rather be transparent than advertise "daily" and quietly cut corners to afford it.
Why weekly, not daily?
It's the question we get most. Scanning a prompt across six AI engines has a real cost. Doing that daily for hundreds of prompts is expensive — so tools that advertise daily usually track fewer engines, sample a subset of your prompts, or run at a loss to win market share.
AI answers don't meaningfully change from one day to the next. Weekly tracking across all six engines gives a more complete and more stable picture than daily tracking across three — without passing hidden compute cost on to you. Faster cadences are on our roadmap as an option for teams that genuinely need them.
