SE Ranking

An all-in-one SEO platform that now tracks your visibility in AI search too.

Overview

SE Ranking is an all-in-one SEO platform built for marketing teams, freelancers, and agencies. It covers rank tracking, keyword research, competitor analysis, backlinks, and site audits in one subscription, and now also tracks how your brand shows up in AI answers from tools like ChatGPT and Google's AI Mode, so classic SEO and AI search visibility live in the same dashboard.

Key Features

SE Ranking centers on a rank tracker that monitors your keywords daily across the major search engines, alongside unlimited keyword, competitor, and backlink research on every plan. A website audit crawls up to 250,000 pages a month on Core, and every plan also tracks AI prompts across five large language models, so you can see where AI tools mention or cite your brand. Content marketing and local SEO tools are included in the subscription rather than sold separately.

Reporting connects out through Google Analytics, Search Console, and Looker Studio integrations, and every plan includes API credits and native MCP access, so you can pull SE Ranking data straight into tools like Claude. Agencies can add white-label reporting and client seats through the separate Agency Pack add-on.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Covers rank tracking, research, audits, backlinks, content, and local SEO in one subscription

  • AI search visibility tracking is built into every plan

  • Unlimited keyword, competitor, and backlink research

  • Clean, beginner-friendly interface

  • Genuine 14-day free trial with no credit card required

Cons

  • Entry price has jumped since the old budget plans were retired

  • Core keeps only 6 months of historical data

  • Only 1 user seat on Core, and only one active session per login

  • White-label reporting needs a paid add-on, billed annually only

  • Payments are non-refundable outside of service issues

Ideal For

SE Ranking suits freelancers, small in-house teams, and growing agencies that want a full SEO toolkit plus AI search tracking without paying top-tier suite prices. It's less suited to large teams who need deep historical data and many seats on a budget, or to anyone who only needs a single tool like a rank tracker.

Editor’s Rating

4 / 5

A capable platform that covers a lot of ground, though it isn't the easiest to live with. What earns the four: it packs rank tracking, research, audits, and AI search tracking into one subscription, which is hard to find at this price. Where it loses a point: the interface feels confusing to navigate, and data updates arrive later than we'd like, so it never quite felt comfortable as a daily tool. Strong on coverage, weaker on usability.

SE Ranking

An all-in-one SEO platform that now tracks your visibility in AI search too.

SE Ranking is an all-in-one SEO platform that covers rank tracking, keyword research, competitor analysis, backlinks, and site audits in a single subscription.

It has long been seen as the more affordable alternative to Semrush and Ahrefs, and in its latest update it added AI search visibility tracking to its core plans.

That means you can monitor how your brand shows up in tools like ChatGPT and Google's AI answers alongside your regular rankings.

Key Features

The rank tracker remains its strongest feature, covering major search engines with daily updates and a clean view of how keywords move over time. Keyword and competitor research is unlimited on every plan, and the website audit can crawl hundreds of thousands of pages a month. Every plan also tracks AI prompts across five large language models, so you can see where AI tools mention or cite your brand. Content marketing and local SEO tools are included rather than sold separately, and the platform connects with Google Analytics, Search Console, and Looker Studio. For more technical teams, API credits and MCP access let you pull SE Ranking data straight into AI assistants.

Our take

SE Ranking does most of what the bigger SEO suites do, in a cleaner interface and at a lower price. The built-in AI search tracking is a genuine plus, since most teams would otherwise pay for a separate tool. The trade-off is that the entry price has risen noticeably with the new plans, and some useful features, like full history and white-label reports, sit behind higher tiers or add-ons.

Peec AI

AI search analytics for marketing teams

Peec AI is a pure-play AI search visibility tracker built for marketing teams. Instead of tracking how you rank on Google, it tracks how your brand shows up when people ask questions inside AI tools like ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Perplexity, Gemini, and Copilot.

It measures your visibility, position, sentiment, and share of voice across those answer engines. You set up a workspace with your brand and domain, Peec suggests prompts matched to real search intent, and within minutes your dashboard shows where your brand appears in AI answers and where it doesn't.

Setup is self-serve and takes about ten minutes, and every plan includes unlimited user seats, which is unusual in this category. Peec prices in two tracks: brand plans start at $95/month, and agency plans, built for managing multiple client brands, start at $245/month, each with higher tiers and a custom Enterprise option. It deliberately does one thing rather than being a full SEO suite, there's no content creation or traditional SEO tooling, just clean, focused AI-visibility monitoring.

Key Features

  • Visibility dashboard showing how often your brand is mentioned in AI answers

  • SERP-style position tracking and share-of-voice against competitors

  • Coverage across major answer engines (three on lower tiers, more on Enterprise)

  • Unlimited countries and languages at no extra cost

  • Source-level insights showing which pages AI tools cite

  • Reporting via Looker Studio connector, REST API, and native MCP

  • Actions feature (beta) that turns visibility gaps into a prioritized GEO to-do list

Our take

Peec AI's strength is clarity, it does one thing, AI visibility monitoring, and does it cleanly, with an interface that surfaces prompts, mentions, competitors, and sources without burying you in layers. The transparent public pricing and unlimited seats make it refreshingly honest in a category full of "contact sales." The honest caveat: it isn't cheap for light use ($95/month for brands, $245 for agencies), lower tiers only cover three AI engines by default, and it's monitoring only, no content creation, site audits, or traditional SEO, so you'll pair it with other tools for the full picture.
