Namedra vs the alternatives

There are four ways to handle AI search visibility: do nothing, buy measurement software, extend an SEO retainer, or hire Namedra to measure and do the work. This page compares them on what you get, cost and the gap each leaves.

Detailed comparisons

Namedra vs doing it in-house

The tracker we use is a straightforward pipeline: prompts, API calls, analysis, report. A capable marketer can build a version in a week, and our checklist shows how to do it by hand. What takes time is the monthly work: 4 to 10 citation-earning assets, review-site operations and publisher outreach. Our retainer is priced below one marketing hire and includes the measurement.

When not to hire Namedra

If you have no named competitors, if your buyers do not research vendors online, or if your website cannot publish new pages within a month, start with the free audit and fix the basics first.
