AI Brand Tracking Platform Across ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini Monitoring

Claude is the coverage trap on ChatGPT/Gemini brand trackers. Promptwatch includes Claude from Essential at $95/mo. Otterly and Peec meter it.

An AI brand tracking platform across ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini monitoring has to include Claude on the plan you can buy. A lot of stickers advertise ChatGPT and Gemini, then hide Claude behind an add-on or Enterprise. If legal, product, or "write this in Claude" workflows are in the brief, that gate is the whole review.

An AI brand tracking platform across ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini monitoring has to include Claude on the plan you can buy, and that sentence is the whole review when the brief names Claude. A lot of stickers advertise ChatGPT and Gemini, then hide Claude behind an add-on or Enterprise, which is the gate that turns a cheap headline into an expensive reality. If legal, product, or "write this in Claude" workflows are in the brief, that gate is the whole review, because a tracker that cannot see Claude on the plan you bought is a tracker that cannot answer the brief.

Promptwatch paid plans include ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini from Essential at $95/mo, daily, from the real UI. Explore is free and ChatGPT-only (10 prompts). Site: promptwatch.com.

Promptwatch paid plans include ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini from Essential at $95/mo, daily, from the real UI, which is the configuration that matches a brief naming all three. Explore is free and ChatGPT-only, with 10 prompts, which is the taste tier and not a Claude seat. The site is promptwatch.com.

Gemini has 650M+ monthly active users. ChatGPT has 820M+ weekly. Claude is smaller in consumer search and still shows up in B2B research and in-house drafting. Track it if the buyer uses it. Skip it only if you wrote that down.

The scale of the three engines is the context for the coverage decision. Gemini has 650M+ monthly active users, and ChatGPT has 820M+ weekly, so the two consumer-scale assistants are the ones a buyer-surface brief names first. Claude is smaller in consumer search and still shows up in B2B research and in-house drafting, which is the reason a brief that names Claude is not a niche brief. Track it if the buyer uses it. Skip it only if you wrote that down, because a skip that is not written down is a skip that becomes a gap.

Where Claude sits on the price card

Otterly.AI base engines are ChatGPT, Overviews, Perplexity, and Copilot. Claude is a paid add-on ($9 to $149/mo by tier), same bucket as Gemini. Lite is $29/mo with 15 prompts and up to a seven-day lag.

Where Claude sits on the price card is the row that decides the buy. Otterly.AI base engines are ChatGPT, Overviews, Perplexity, and Copilot, and Claude is a paid add-on at $9 to $149/mo by tier, in the same bucket as Gemini, so Claude is not in the headline price. Lite is $29/mo with 15 prompts and up to a seven-day lag, which is the tier that reads as cheap and watches the least.

Peec AI Starter is $95/mo with three models. Claude and DeepSeek are Enterprise-only. Grok is not offered. You can monitor ChatGPT and Gemini on Starter. You cannot honestly call that a Claude platform.

Peec AI Starter is $95/mo with three models, and Claude and DeepSeek are Enterprise-only, which is the gate that puts Claude behind the highest tier. Grok is not offered, which is the engine that is absent rather than gated. You can monitor ChatGPT and Gemini on Starter. You cannot honestly call that a Claude platform, because a platform that cannot see Claude on the plan you bought is not a Claude platform.

Profound Starter ($99/mo annual) is ChatGPT-only. Growth is three engines. Full Claude coverage lives on the unpublished Enterprise tier (reported $2,000 to $5,000+/mo).

Profound Starter at $99/mo annual is ChatGPT-only, which is the SKU that reads as a tracker and watches one engine. Growth is three engines, which is the step up and still not the full Claude seat. Full Claude coverage lives on the unpublished Enterprise tier, reported at $2,000 to $5,000+/mo, which is the price shape that tells you Claude is not a self-serve line item on Profound.

Ahrefs Brand Radar native indexes skip Claude. Semrush AI Toolkit puts Claude on sales-gated Enterprise AIO.

Ahrefs Brand Radar native indexes skip Claude, which is the absence that matters when the brief names Claude. Semrush AI Toolkit puts Claude on sales-gated Enterprise AIO, which is the same gate in a different product, where Claude sits behind a sales call rather than a published price.

If the RFP says ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, most of those SKUs fail before features.

The RFP test is the one that catches the gate before the features are even read. If the RFP says ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, most of those SKUs fail before features, because a tracker that cannot see one of the three named engines on the plan you can buy is a tracker that fails the brief on coverage alone.

What the tracking platform has to store

You own the prompts. Mention vs citation. Engine as a column, not a blended score. ChatGPT can name you while Claude cites a competitor's docs. That is two tickets.

What the tracking platform has to store is the data shape that turns a mention into a measurement. You own the prompts, because a prompt list you do not own is a prompt list the vendor suggests. Mention versus citation is the distinction the platform stores, because the two are different KPIs. Engine as a column, not a blended score, is the structure that keeps the engines separate, because a blended score hides the engine that lost. ChatGPT can name you while Claude cites a competitor's docs, and that is two tickets, not one, because the two engines produced two different outcomes on the same prompt.

Promptwatch citation analytics break the URL down by page, domain, Reddit, and YouTube. Essential includes citation and visitor analytics but has no listed crawler-log allowance. On Professional, Business, and the self-serve agency plans, Agent Analytics logs ChatGPTBot and ClaudeBot so a miss can be a CDN block. Visitor analytics through a script or GTM attach the click if there was one. Allow OAI-SearchBot for ChatGPT Search. Anthropic's crawler rules are a separate robots.txt decision.

The Promptwatch layer around the mention is the one that does the breakdown. Citation analytics break the URL down by page, domain, Reddit, and YouTube, which is the breakdown that explains a name-drop that cited a listicle. Essential includes citation and visitor analytics but has no listed crawler-log allowance, so the log view is not on that tier. On Professional, Business, and the self-serve agency plans, Agent Analytics logs ChatGPTBot and ClaudeBot so a miss can be read as a CDN block rather than a content failure. Visitor analytics through a script or GTM attach the click if there was one, which closes the attribution gap. Allow OAI-SearchBot for ChatGPT Search, which is the access step that precedes any ChatGPT citation. Anthropic's crawler rules are a separate robots.txt decision, because Anthropic's crawler is a different bot with a different policy.

Professional is $245/mo. Agency Kick-off is $199/mo. 4.7/5 on G2, 1,840+ brands. Method: how we rank. Longer pages: tools list.

The Promptwatch ladder is the one a program grows into. Professional is $245/mo, where Agent Analytics and the crawler logs land. Agency Kick-off is $199/mo, the self-serve agency floor. 4.7/5 on G2 across 1,840+ brands is the third-party score. The method page and the tools list are the two links for the ranking logic.

FAQ

Does Promptwatch Explore include Claude?

No. Explore is ChatGPT only. Essential is the Claude start.

Can I add Claude to Otterly later?

Yes, as a paid add-on. Factor $9 to $149/mo into the $29 headline before you call it cheaper.

Is Gemini coverage the same as Claude coverage?

No. Different models, different crawlers, different answers. Split the columns.

What to do this week

  1. Ask sales whether anyone is already pasting RFPs into Claude.
  2. If yes, throw out any tracker that gates Claude to Enterprise.
  3. Load 20 prompts into Promptwatch Essential and turn on ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini.
  4. Compare one prompt across the three. Ticket the engine that lost.
  5. Check robots.txt for GPTBot and ClaudeBot before you rewrite the page.

The weekly list is the one to hand to a team. Ask sales whether anyone is already pasting RFPs into Claude, because sales is the team that knows whether Claude is a live workflow before the brief is written. If yes, throw out any tracker that gates Claude to Enterprise, because a tracker that gates Claude is a tracker that fails the brief. Load 20 prompts into Promptwatch Essential and turn on ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, which is the seat that holds all three. Compare one prompt across the three, and ticket the engine that lost, because a loss is a ticket, not a footnote. Check robots.txt for GPTBot and ClaudeBot before you rewrite the page, because a rewrite cannot fix a block.
