Prominara
- Every number comes from the prompts you choose, asked on each engine
- When you change a page, its prompts are re-asked 3 times in 3 phrasings on ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini, and compared against prompts you did not touch
- Each change gets a verdict as a probability with a range and an evidence grade at 7, 14, and 28 days, plus a 60-day retention check; the methodology is published
- Headline visibility rate excludes prompts that already name your brand or a rival, so it measures being found rather than being asked about
- Flags AI answers that state wrong facts about your brand and gives a correction playbook
- 14-day free trial, with prompts you choose
- Checks weekly at most (biweekly on Starter); Semrush Prompt Tracking checks daily
- No prompt research with estimated AI search volume

Which tool wins, for whom.
Semrush's AI Visibility Toolkit makes most sense for teams already working in Semrush: $99 a month adds an AI Visibility Score, prompt research with estimated AI search volume, sentiment and share-of-voice reports, and daily tracking for 25 prompts, next to the SEO data you already use. Most of its reports read from Semrush's own prompt database rather than the prompts you choose; only Prompt Tracking asks your questions on each engine every day. Prominara is built around your own prompts and around a question Semrush does not publish a method for: did the page you changed make AI cite you more often? AI answers vary from run to run, so Prominara re-asks the prompts behind each change in several phrasings, compares them with prompts you did not touch, and reports how likely it is that the change worked.
You want every number to come from the prompts your buyers ask, you need to show a client or a finance team which content changes moved AI visibility, you want AI answers checked for wrong facts about your brand, or you want a free trial before you pay.
You already pay for Semrush, you want prompt research with estimated AI search volume, or you want SEO and AI visibility data in one account.
Frequently asked.
01Is Prominara a good Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit alternative?
Yes, if your goal is to measure whether GEO work changes AI answers for the prompts you care about. Prominara tracks your own prompts, adds repeated sampling with control prompts and a published methodology, and checks AI answers for factual errors. Semrush is the stronger choice if you already use it for SEO or want prompt research with estimated AI search volume.
02How much does the Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit cost?
As of October 2026, the AI Visibility Toolkit costs $99/month per domain, with no discount for annual billing. It includes 1 project and 25 tracked prompts; 50 more prompts cost $60/month, and each extra domain or user costs $99/month. It has no free trial of its own. Semrush One, which bundles it with the SEO Toolkit, starts at $199/month and has a 7-day trial. Prominara costs $29, $149, or $299/month, with a 14-day free trial on every plan.
03Which AI engines does the Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit track?
Semrush lists ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Google AI Mode for the toolkit, but coverage differs by report: Prompt Tracking, for example, lists ChatGPT, AI Mode, and Gemini. Claude, Microsoft Copilot, Grok, and DeepSeek are listed only for Semrush Enterprise AIO. Prominara tracks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, and Google AI Mode.
04Where does Semrush's AI visibility data come from?
Semrush says its Visibility Overview, Competitor Research, and Prompt Research reports draw on a database of over 317 million prompts and responses, with prompts sourced from AI search clickstream data and Google keyword data, and responses captured from real requests. Prompt Tracking is the part that asks the prompts you choose, once a day. In Prominara, every number comes from your own prompts: ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini are queried through their official APIs, and Google AI Overviews and AI Mode are read from the live results page in your market.
05Does Semrush measure whether content changes worked?
Semrush suggests tracking prompts day by day to see the results of optimizations, and its Enterprise AIO product adds forecasting and GA4 or Adobe attribution. It does not publish a method for separating a change's effect from normal answer variance. Prominara re-asks the prompts tied to a logged change 9 times per check (3 runs in 3 phrasings), compares them against prompts you did not touch, and reports a probability with a range at 7, 14, and 28 days.
06Can I use Semrush and Prominara together?
Yes. Semrush covers keyword rankings, backlinks, site audits, and prompt research, and Prominara covers AI visibility on your own prompts, impact measurement, accuracy checks, and AI-ready content. Prominara does not do keyword rank tracking or backlink research.
