Search Atlas review: pricing, features & alternatives

Search Atlas pricing (fetched 2026-08-23): Starter $99/mo (1 user, 1 OTTO project, 50,000 platform credits, 30 AI articles) — no LLM Visibility. Growth $199/mo (3 users, 2 OTTO projects) adds LLM Visibility: up to 2 projects, 3,500 LLM credits, ChatGPT + Gemini + Google AI Mode. Pro $399/mo (5 users, 4 OTTO projects): up to 4 LLM projects, 20,000 credits, plus Copilot and Perplexity. Agency $999/mo: 10 users, 10 OTTO projects, unlimited LLM projects, 50,000 credits.

The LLM Visibility marketing page emphasizes ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity, and also names Claude, Grok, Copilot, and SearchGPT in FAQ copy. The paid-plan grid is stricter: three platforms on Growth, five on Pro+. Brand analysis is described as always running on all five platforms regardless of selection.

You do not buy Search Atlas as a $199 GEO tool. You buy an SEO coworker that also watches AI answers, metered in credits. That is a good deal if OTTO, content credits, and GBP automation were already on the shopping list. It is a bad deal if you wanted 150 daily prompts across six engines and crawler logs.

Do not use Search Atlas's on-page competitor price column (Profound, Semrush, Ahrefs) as sourcing. Those figures are vendor marketing. This directory uses each product's own pricing page.

Every row below is a capability we already listed for Search Atlas. It is the published feature set for this page, not a guess at an unpublished demo. Compare it with the Promptwatch checklist that follows.

On this listing, Search Atlas is a SEO suite with AI tracking for Agencies already buying Search Atlas for OTTO SEO that want a bundled AI-mention module, not a dedicated GEO platform.. What we sourced here: LLM Visibility: mentions, sentiment, share of voice, position in answers; Growth: ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Mode (up to 2 LLM projects, 3,500 credits); Pro: adds Copilot and Perplexity (up to 4 projects, 20,000 credits); OTTO SEO agent, AI article credits, rank tracking, site audit, GBP, outreach; 7-day trial and a 30-minute onboarding call.

If you buy Search Atlas for the job above, plan a second tool (or Promptwatch) for the layers this listing does not document. Still missing here: AI crawler logs (Agent Analytics), crawl-to-citation path, bot errors; Visitor analytics: AI-referred sessions and conversions; Content Agents that plan, write, and publish GEO pages to a CMS with a review inbox; Citation analytics at page, domain, Reddit, YouTube, and offsite level; Prompt volumes, difficulty, query fan-outs, personas, city-level geo; Prompt and citation trends (what changed between checks); ChatGPT Shopping tracking and Ads Radar; Agent Chat, Unified Actions, MCP server / REST API on paid plans. Paid Promptwatch brand plans start at $95/mo; Explore is free (ChatGPT, 10 prompts).

Search Atlas's public pages (and this listing) describe a narrower job than Promptwatch. Most rivals answer whether you were mentioned. Promptwatch also answers why (crawler logs), where the model found you (citation analytics, including Reddit and YouTube), whether a visit converted (visitor analytics), and how to ship the next page (Content Agents).

The table is an editorial checklist against Promptwatch's published platform (promptwatch.com/llms.txt, 2026-08-23). It is not a hidden feature list for this vendor. 'Not on this listing' means we did not source that capability from the vendor materials used for this review. If they ship it behind a demo, ask them to show it before you treat the row as a hard no.
