Promptwatch vs Qwairy vs Peec AI (2026): Stack, Clone, or Tracker
Peec is a polished three-model tracker. Qwairy is a credit-metered sitemap. Promptwatch is the full loop at the same $95 entry as Peec.
Peec AI made tracking look easy. Qwairy made the rest of the category look copy-pasteable. Promptwatch is what you buy if you wanted Peec's polish and Qwairy's brochure in one invoice. Same $95 door as Peec Essential. A publish loop Qwairy only lists. A credit pause neither of the other two should want.
This is a three-way because buyers keep asking "Peec or the cheap French sitemap" as if those were the only shapes. They are not. Peec is a tracker. Qwairy is a prepaid demo of a larger sitemap. Promptwatch is measurement plus publish, and the difference between those three shapes is the difference between a tool you outgrow and a tool you keep.
At a glance
| Promptwatch | Qwairy | Peec AI | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starting price | Free Explore; $95/mo Essential | Free credits; €79/mo | $95/mo |
| Engines | 10+ live UIs including Claude | Long list, mixed API/UI | 3 included; extras $35 to $165/mo |
| Evidence | Citations; crawler logs from Professional $245 | Responses/sources | Screenshots |
| Action | Content Agents | Content Studio (50 credits/brief) | None |
| Crawler logs | Professional $245 | Business €449 | No |
| G2 | 4.7/5, 1,840+ customers | Unpublished here | 4.9/5 |
| Trap | Project caps on Essential | Pause at 0 credits | Configured bill 30 to 50% over sticker |
The trap row is the one to read twice. Promptwatch Essential caps projects, which is a limit you can plan around because the cap is on the pricing page. Qwairy pauses at zero credits, which is a limit you cannot plan around because the pause arrives mid-month. Peec's configured bill runs 30 to 50% over sticker once extra models land, which is a limit that hides in the configuration step. €79 vs $95 looks like Qwairy wins until 1,300 credits are gone and Claude is still an API row, at which point the cheaper sticker has bought a worse month.
Where Promptwatch wins
Same $95 door as Peec, with Claude included and Explore underneath. Essential has 50 prompts, 6,000 responses, 200K visitor events, five AEO articles, daily refresh, country targeting, optimization, and MCP and API access. It does not include crawler logs, and that is the line you cross when you move to Professional. Professional at $245 adds 25M logs, state and city targeting, Data Studio, shopping insights, and custom reports. SSO and white-label remain Enterprise features. You do not get Peec's screenshot on every cell or Qwairy's pause, and both of those omissions are deliberate.
10+ live UIs including Claude is the engine story. Citations are on Essential, while crawler logs begin on Professional, so the evidence layer deepens as you move up the tiers rather than arriving all at once. Content Agents are the action story, and they are the part that turns the measurement into output. 4.7/5 on G2 and 1,840+ customers is the vendor story. Project caps on Essential are the limit you plan around, not a surprise wallet, and that distinction is the whole reason the trap row matters.
If the job is "track, then ship a page," this is the column. If the job is "show the client a screenshot of the ChatGPT cell," Peec still owns that cell, and Promptwatch does not try to take it.
Where Qwairy loses
It is not a better Peec. It is a worse Promptwatch. Credits, API Claude, and €449 crawlers. Content Studio spends 50 credits per brief, which means the action layer is metered in the same currency as the tracking layer, and the two deplete together. Responses and sources are the evidence, not screenshots and not crawler logs on Starter.
The long engine list is mixed API and UI. That is how a sitemap looks wide, because a name on the list does not tell you whether the check is a live model call or a cached row. Peec at least tells you there are three models and then charges $35 to $165 to add more. Qwairy tells you there are many names and then pauses when the prepaid pile hits zero, and the pause is the part the brochure does not foreground.
Where Peec wins
UX and screenshots. Unlimited seats. Daily refresh. Agencies standardized on it for a reason, and the reason is that the dashboard is the deliverable. It will not write the page. It will not log GPTBot. Price the extra models before you sign, because the extra models are where the bill moves.
4.9 on G2 is the review number. $95 is the sticker. The configured bill is the number finance sees later, and the gap between those two numbers is the thing to model before the renewal. Three included models is enough for a ChatGPT-heavy pilot. It is not enough if Claude or a fourth engine is in the brief and nobody added $35 to $165, and the brief usually does include Claude by the second quarter.
Action is none. That is not an insult. It is the product. Peec monitors. Someone else writes. Someone else publishes. Someone else explains why GPTBot never hit the URL, and that someone else is usually on a different tool.
Who should pick which
- Promptwatch for measurement plus publish.
- Peec for a client-ready tracker if you accept three models or the add-on math.
- Qwairy for a free poke.
If you already live in Peec and the screenshots are doing client work, stay. Add Promptwatch when you need Claude without Enterprise theater, or when you need crawler logs and a write path. If you are still on Qwairy free credits, you have not picked a vendor yet, and the credits will tell you when that changes.

FAQ
Is Qwairy cheaper than Peec?
€79 vs $95. Peec's three models will still be running at the end of the month. Qwairy's 1,300 credits might not. Cheaper sticker, worse month. Promptwatch at $95 is the other $95, with Claude and a loop Peec does not sell.
