Whitespark vs Peec AI

Whitespark sells local SEO as separate tools: a Google and Bing rank tracker, ranking grids, the Citation Finder, Reputation Builder and a managed Listings Service, each with its own price. Peec AI is AI search analytics for marketing teams: visibility, position and sentiment tracked daily, prompt suggestions from search volume, and reporting through CSV, Looker and MCP. They compete only where the categories overlap, and the chapters below walk every dimension a buyer would price: which AI engines each can see, how the tracking actually meters, what each produces on the content side, what surrounds the core product, and the full published tier lists.

Whitespark built its name on citations, and its pricing page is explicit about the model: the software and services are sold individually, with no forced bundling. The catalog spans the Local Rank Tracker (Local Packs, Maps and organic on Google and Bing), Local Ranking Grids up to 225 points, the Local Citation Finder, Reputation Builder, a $1-per-location Local Platform for GBP management, and services: a managed Listings Service sold as one-time packages, a Yext replacement service, and full SEO engagements.

Pricing model. Per tool: Local Platform $1 a month per location, ranking grids from $10, rank tracker $14 to $200, Citation Finder $33 to $149, Reputation Builder $79 per location; Listings Service one-time packages from $20 to $999 and SEO services $499 to $1,999 a month.

Peec AI is a focused AI search analytics platform out of Europe, trusted by 3,000+ marketing teams by its own count with logos like Zalando, Squarespace, Hugo Boss and Wix on its pricing page, and a 4.9 G2 rating in its footer. The product tracks brand visibility, position and sentiment in AI answers daily, suggests prompts from search volume data, analyzes sources and citations, and runs an agency partner program with separate bundle pricing.

Pricing model. Starter $95, Pro $245 and Advanced $495 a month, each including three of six selectable models, with extra models $30 to $140 a month by tier and 15% off annually; Enterprise is custom and unlocks all models including Claude and DeepSeek.

Whitespark. No AI answer engine appears anywhere on Whitespark's public surfaces: the rank tracker page covers Local Packs, Maps and organic results in Google and Bing on desktop and mobile, and neither the pricing page nor the tracker page mentions ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other assistant.

Peec AI. Six models are selectable on the paid tiers: ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Google AI Overviews, Microsoft Copilot, Perplexity and Gemini, and every tier reads choose three of them. A fourth model is a paid add-on at $30, $70 or $140 a month by tier. Enterprise opens all models and adds Claude Sonnet 4, GPT 5 Search, DeepSeek, Qwen and Mistral via API, up to 11; Grok appears nowhere on the public pages.

Summarized: Whitespark reads none on any surface; Peec AI reads 3 of 6 per tier (ChatGPT, AI Mode, AIO, Copilot, Perplexity, Gemini); 11 on Enterprise. On Claude specifically, Whitespark: no; Peec AI: enterprise only.

Whitespark. The Local Rank Tracker follows Google and Bing rankings with white-label reporting via unique share URLs, and agencies can serve reports from a custom domain such as rankings.yoursite.com. Local Ranking Grids run the map-grid measurement as a separate product from $10 a month, up to 225 points per scan.

Peec AI. Every prompt executes once every 24 hours per their FAQ, with visibility, position and sentiment recorded, plus competitive benchmarking and prompt-volume estimation. Projects and countries meter by tier: one project and one country on Starter, five projects and three countries on Advanced.

Whitespark. There is no self-serve content product; writing appears only inside SEO Services engagements, which the pricing page lists at $499 to $1,999 a month, done by their team.

Peec AI. Peec ships strategy recommendations drawn from citation data, for example suggesting a G2 profile or a subreddit the engines cite. There is no article writer and no CMS publishing surface on its public pages; acting on the recommendations stays with your team.

Whitespark. Citations are the flagship: the Citation Finder discovers directories and audits NAP consistency, and the Listings Service has an in-house team doing one-time cleanup and submission from $20 to $999, with the citations owned once built. Reputation Builder monitors 100+ review sites and runs branded review requests over email, SMS and tablet or kiosk modes at $79 per month per location.

Peec AI. There is no classic-Google organic rank tracking and no local surface: no Maps, no geo-grid, no GBP tooling anywhere on the public pages. The product's entire surface is AI search analytics.

Whitespark. Neither the pricing page nor the rank tracker page mentions an API or an MCP server. Reporting depth comes through the white-label share URLs and custom domains on agency plans.

Peec AI. MCP access is checked on every tier, CSV export is a homepage feature, the Looker Studio connector starts on the $495 Advanced tier, and the REST API is Enterprise-only. The homepage promotes connecting Peec to Claude, Cursor and n8n through MCP and API.
