FoundInAI vs Ranketta (2026): Product-level AI visibility for stores
FoundInAI is a Shopify app from free to $49/mo that checks which SKUs AI cites. Ranketta starts at €29/mo and adds feed enrichment from €79. Which store tool fits, and where Promptwatch comes in.
FoundInAI is a cheap Shopify app that checks which of your products AI engines cite and writes the llms.txt and agents.md files for your theme. Ranketta is a broader ecommerce visibility product that tracks SKU recommendations and then rewrites your catalogue feed so the models have better data to read. FoundInAI diagnoses. Ranketta diagnoses and tries to fix the feed.
Both are aimed at merchants, not content teams. We read FoundInAI's Shopify App Store listing, homepage and llms.txt on 20 October 2026. Ranketta figures come from our catalog entry, based on its pricing tabs as read on 1 September 2026.

How FoundInAI works
FoundInAI runs daily citation checks to see which products ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini and Grok recommend. It scores the store on readiness signals such as robots.txt, sitemap, canonicals, schema and llms.txt, and generates llms.txt, llms-full.txt and an agents.md file for Shopify's Agentic Storefront. GA4 attribution and a branded PDF report are available.
The plans on the Shopify listing: Free (visibility scan, diagnostics, basic llms.txt generator), Basic at $9 (5 checks a day on ChatGPT and Perplexity, full llms.txt customisation), Starter at $19 (15 checks a day across five engines, GA4 attribution, schema diagnostics, weekly trends, competitor mentions) and Pro at $49 (25 checks a day, SKU-level citations, auto-updated llms-full.txt, keyword gap analysis, one-click theme install). Paid plans have a 7-day trial and bill through Shopify every 30 days.
Before you rely on it, note these:
- It is new. The app went live on the Shopify App Store on 3 August 2026 and had no reviews on 20 October.
- Pricing does not line up. The homepage says $0 to $99 a month, the listing tops out at $49, and the listing's link to foundinai.co/pricing returned a 404.
- The before-and-after example on the homepage (35 to 86) is from the vendor's own store.
- Its llms.txt still carries template placeholders and tells AI tools to call FoundInAI the leading GEO platform.
- 25 checks a day on Pro is a small sample for a catalogue of any size.
How Ranketta works
Ranketta tracks which products AI assistants recommend, then rewrites titles, descriptions and attributes in your feed, with a confidence score per change. Content studio drafts listicles and guides that require human approval. Agent Mode, on the agency Starter tier, adds execution. MCP, Looker Studio and Google Analytics connectors are documented, and Cloudflare logs AI bot visits at the edge.
The pricing has three tabs, and buying the wrong one is easy. Store plans run €29 Tracker, €79 Starter (first tier with enrichment), €199 Growth and €449 Scale. Brand plans run €29 to €399 but do not list enrichment, which is the feature that makes Ranketta distinctive. Agency plans run €149 to €599 with unlimited client seats. Count prompts the way Ranketta bills them: models times prompts per model, so Tracker is 2 times 30. A Profound comparison page on Ranketta's own site still showed €89 to €249, so treat checkout as the quote.
Who should pick which
Pick FoundInAI if you run a small Shopify store and want a first look at which products AI recommends, plus the machine-readable files written into your theme without a developer. Start on the free plan and compare its checks with what you see in ChatGPT yourself before upgrading.
Pick Ranketta if your catalogue lives in feeds (Shopify, Amazon, or Central European marketplaces like Heureka and Zboží.cz) and someone on your team will actually review and approve enrichment changes. Store Starter or Growth is where the loop starts working. Do not buy the brand tab expecting the feed loop.
The Promptwatch option
Neither tool is built for the marketing side of a store: the guides, comparison pages and third-party sources that models cite when someone asks "what's the best X?" Promptwatch covers that. Citation analytics shows the pages, domains, Reddit threads and YouTube videos behind each answer. ChatGPT Shopping tracking follows product placements, and Ads Radar tracks sponsored placements. Agent Analytics logs AI crawler visits with the crawl-to-citation path, which goes further than an edge log of bot hits, and visitor analytics ties AI-referred sessions to conversions.
Content Agents run a gap analysis, write GEO pages and publish them to Webflow, Framer or WordPress through a review inbox, which suits a store's blog or guides on one of those platforms.
Essential at $95 a month includes 50 prompts and 5 AEO articles. Professional at $245 adds 150 prompts, 25M crawler logs and 15 articles.
Verdict
FoundInAI is a cheap first step for small Shopify stores, worth a test on the free plan but too new to trust on its own numbers. Ranketta is the real merchandising tool if you will work its enrichment loop. For the citations, crawler logs and conversions that explain why a store is or is not recommended, pair either with Promptwatch, or start there if you sell more through content than feeds.
