The best LLM tracking tools (for agencies and brands)
By Kristian Stig Henriksen · Dear Future
The best LLM tracking tool is the one that can answer five methodology questions precisely: which model version, real web search or memory, how often it measures, whether uncertainty is shown, and whether you can read the raw answers. Here are the five questions and an honest rundown of six platforms, including our own.
Honest label: Dear Future builds the AI Visibility Engine, so read our take on the others as a competitor's. We keep it factual and link to them directly so you can verify for yourself.
The five questions that separate the tools
- Which model version is measured, exactly? An unnamed “ChatGPT” can be swapped out without your trend line ever telling you.
- Is it measured with real web search, from your country and in your language? Answers from the model's memory cite almost nothing and do not resemble what your buyers see.
- How often is it measured? Daily measurements can separate development from noise; weekly and monthly samples cannot.
- Is the uncertainty shown? A share without a confidence interval is a hunch with decimals.
- Can you read the raw answers behind every number? Without them you cannot verify anything.
The tools, described honestly
Peec AI
European platform built for marketing teams that want to work in dashboards themselves. Broad model coverage, multiple markets and an open approach to methodology; Peec is among the most transparent in the field. Fits teams with their own resources who want to run the analysis themselves.
Profound
US platform aimed at enterprise: large brands and agencies with many markets and stakeholders. Broad monitoring across assistants in a large suite. Fits organizations that buy enterprise software and have a team to run it.
Otterly.AI
Accessible monitoring tool for smaller companies and agencies. Tracks prompts across ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews among others, at a low entry price. Fits small setups that want to get started without a big commitment.
AccuLLM (AccuRanker)
AccuRanker's LLM module, built by the rank-tracking company from Aarhus, Denmark: visibility across prompts, sentiment, cited sources and competitors in ChatGPT, Perplexity and AI Overviews among others. Fits SEO teams already working in AccuRanker who want the AI numbers in the same place.
Ahrefs Brand Radar
Ahrefs' AI visibility module inside their SEO suite: brand mentions, citations and share of voice in AI Overviews and assistant answers, next to the classic search data. Fits teams already paying for Ahrefs who want to start there before buying a dedicated tool.
Dear Future AI Visibility Engine
Our platform: daily measurement with real web search and named model versions, uncertainty shown with confidence intervals, raw answers stored in the EU, and a roadmap that turns gaps into concrete tasks, also via MCP inside your own AI assistant. Delivered with advisory on top. Fits brands that want the measurement turned into a plan, with Danish and Nordic grounding.
How to run the evaluation
Shortlist two platforms and test them on your own category: the same ten buyer questions in both, a week of measurements, then compare. Ask both vendors the five questions, and ask to see the raw answers behind one concrete number. That decides more than any feature list. Judge price against scope: the number of questions, assistants, markets and competitors, not against the list price alone.

What is the best LLM tracker for agencies?
The one that survives the five methodology questions and fits how the agency works: self-serve dashboards across many clients point to platforms like Peec or Otterly; large enterprise clients point to Profound; if the agency already sits in Ahrefs or AccuRanker, Brand Radar and AccuLLM are the natural starting points; and if the agency wants to deliver measurement plus an action plan as one service with Nordic grounding, our AI Visibility Engine is built for that.
What does an LLM tracking tool cost?
The price typically follows the scope: how many prompts, assistants, markets and competitors are monitored. The field's entry level is a low monthly subscription, enterprise suites sit substantially higher, and our own price follows the chosen scope. Always compare price against measurement frequency and method, not just prompt counts.
Can you track LLM visibility for free?
Yes, at small scale: ask ten to twenty buyer questions with web search switched on, note mentions and citations, and repeat on fixed days. That gives an honest snapshot and is the right first test of whether your category gets asked at all. Automation only becomes necessary when you want daily measurement across assistants.
