Short answer. Pick Ahrefs Brand Radar if you want broad, market-wide AI visibility research, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode coverage, or you already pay for Ahrefs. Pick aipozi if you own one site and want a small daily check of 10 questions on four AIs, every answer kept word for word, for $29 a month.

Choose Ahrefs Brand Radar if...
- You want market-wide data. Ahrefs says its index covers "512 million+" monthly prompts, drawn from its keyword database. aipozi only asks the 10 questions you choose.
- You need Google AI Overviews or AI Mode. aipozi does not track those surfaces.
- You already use Ahrefs for SEO and want AI visibility in the same account.
- You manage many sites or clients. aipozi has no agency or white-label features.
- You want a long-established vendor. Ahrefs has years of history behind it.
Choose aipozi if...
- You have one site and a short list of questions that matter ("best dentist in Leeds"). 10 questions on four engines is about 40 answers a day.
- You want one price. $29 a month per site, all four engines, no add-ons.
- You want the evidence. aipozi keeps every answer word for word, with the pages the AI read, so you can see why a competitor was named.
- You want an honest number. aipozi reports "recommended in X of Y runs", because the same question rarely returns the same order twice. Read why in why AI answers change.
- You want to start without a card. The first check is free.
Limits of aipozi, plainly
- It is brand new (launched October 2026).
- No Google AI Overviews or AI Mode tracking.
- No multi-country or multi-language tracking.
- No agency or white-label features, and no API yet.
- 10 questions per site. If you need hundreds of prompts, Ahrefs is built for that.
How to decide
Start with what you need to know. If it is "how do we compare across a whole market of prompts", that is Brand Radar's job. If it is "did ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity name my business this morning, and who did they name instead", a small daily check is enough. You can also run the check by hand first: see how to check if AI recommends your business. For which search index each AI reads, see which search engine each AI uses.
Frequently asked questions
Is aipozi cheaper than Ahrefs Brand Radar?
For one site, yes. aipozi is $29 a month per site. Ahrefs lists Brand Radar from $199 a month, and its custom-prompt packages from $50 a month, as of 27 Oct 2026. Ahrefs covers far more, so the price difference is not like for like.
Does Ahrefs Brand Radar cover more AI engines than aipozi?
Yes. Ahrefs lists AI Overviews, AI Mode, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot and ChatGPT on its Brand Radar page, and mentions Claude. aipozi covers ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity only, and does not track Google AI Overviews or AI Mode.
Can I use both?
Yes. Brand Radar is a market-wide research tool. aipozi is a small daily check of the 10 questions you choose, with every answer kept word for word. They answer different questions.
Is aipozi proven?
No. aipozi launched in October 2026 and has no track record yet. Ahrefs is an established company. If a long history matters to you, that counts in Ahrefs' favour.
How does aipozi collect its answers?
Each morning it asks ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity your questions through each company's official API, with live web search on. It does not scrape the consumer apps.
