AI visibility software starts at $24.99 per month for Local Falcon, $29 per month for Otterly, $29 per month billed annually for BrightLocal Track, and $99 per month for Semrush or Profound. Ahrefs Brand Radar starts at $199 per month for one AI index. Peec publishes plan limits, but its reviewed pricing page did not expose a dollar amount.
Those prices were checked on each vendor's official page on September 2, 2026. They are not equivalent plans.

Ahrefs Brand Radar: the help page prices it as "Single platform: $199/month per index" and "All platforms: $699/month (includes 2,500 custom prompt checks/month)." Ahrefs also publishes separate custom-prompt tiers between $50 and $250 a month.
Peec AI: the public page lists Starter, Pro, Advanced, and Enterprise limits, plus a model list and a 15 percent annual discount. It did not expose a dollar amount in the reviewed page, so I am not repeating a price from a secondary source.

Prices and plan details come from official vendor pages reviewed September 2, 2026. Confirm current limits before buying. Cheers builds the highlighted service, so verify its fit and proposal directly.
Add-on pricing is where a cheap plan gets expensive, and the reason is measurable. In the Cheers production panel covering the 28 days ending September 2, 2026, across 119 home-services organizations, the mean per-organization citation rate was 34.3% on Perplexity and 28.7% on Google AI surfaces but only 13.4% on ChatGPT and 12.4% on Gemini. Buying a single-engine plan means measuring one of four very different pictures. Aggregate only, no organization named; see the panel methodology and AI visibility statistics.
The table keeps the published unit beside the price. A prompt, a domain, a model, a geo-grid credit, and an active location are different units. Price comparisons that ignore the unit are useless.

How Cheers is priced
Cheers has no public list price. We price per location based on the operating scope. Cheers is a done-for-you service that manages the website, reviews, listings, structured data, local content, and AI visibility program for multi-location service businesses.
That means the fair comparison extends beyond the monitoring subscription. Include the internal or agency labor required to inspect citations, assign work, update the source, coordinate branches, and verify the result after the change.
Cheers is not the right choice when a team only wants raw monitoring software or a one-time brand check. The self-serve tools above cost less because the buyer owns the response to the report.
Use the demo action below if you need a per-location scope for a managed program. For software-only fit, use the platform comparison and the local buyer shortlist. The managed alternative is the AI visibility platform service line.
