Comparison
Some teams try to track AI visibility by hand, asking ChatGPT a few questions and tweaking pages.
| NextEO | Doing it in-house (DIY) | |
|---|---|---|
| Coverage | Tests prompts across ChatGPT, Claude, Google Gemini, Perplexity and Grok, plus buyer conversations in ChatGPT, on a schedule, and tracks the trend over time. | A handful of manual prompts, run inconsistently. |
| Honest measurement | Never feeds your brand into the prompt, so the result is real, not a vanity number. | Easy to ask leading questions that flatter rather than measure. |
| Catching what AI gets wrong | Hallucination Guard spots false claims about you that you would never think to check by hand. | You only catch the errors you happen to stumble into. |
| Doing the fixes | Turns findings into a prioritized fix list, and AutoFix applies the safe ones to your site for you. | Every fix is its own research project. |
| Cost | A 7-day free trial runs a real ChatGPT buyer conversation about your business before you pay anything. | Free in dollars, expensive in hours, and easy to quietly stop doing. |
