The Gumshoe Visibility Audit compared with competing AI visibility tools, which are not named
Feature Gumshoe Everyone else What this means
Starter $99/mo. Free full audit first, no card. $95 to $99/mo. Trials expire, or entry covers one model. Gumshoe provides more depth, more insights, more models, and you see your visibility before you pay a cent.
Personas 8 buyer personas per audit. No persona layer. Flat prompt lists. You see the headline score and which buyers are behind it.
Visibility Audit 480+ prompts and responses in one structured run. You can slice and dice by buyer, competitor, topic, and model. 25 to 350 prompts, run as a flat list. More prompts, written for you and structured so you can slice them by buyer or competitor.
Snapshot Audit 80 conversations, weekly or daily. Captures variability and urgent changes. A daily dashboard at one depth. A small audit on top of the deep one, where most tools sell the small one as the whole product.
Model coverage 6 per audit, 12 in catalog. Claude included. Choose the models most important to you. 1 to 3 on most tiers. More costs extra. Twelve models to choose from, and you can run every one of them.
Competitors tracked Up to 30. Often capped at 4. Room for your full competitive set.
Seats Unlimited, every plan. 1 to 3, then $45 to $99 per user. Your whole team, at no extra cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Visibility Audit?
A Visibility Audit is a full analysis of how AI models represent your brand, and the measurement foundation of generative engine optimization (GEO). Gumshoe runs conversations as real buyer personas across the major AI models, then measures how often you appear, how you rank against competitors, and what AI actually says about you.
What is a Snapshot Audit?
A Snapshot Audit is a lightweight version of your Visibility Audit that runs weekly on Starter and daily on Pro. Each run checks how your brand shows up in AI answers using 4 buyer personas, 5 prompts each, across 4 AI models, so you always have a current read on your visibility.
How is this different from asking ChatGPT about my brand myself?
A single anonymous chat shows you one answer to one question. A Visibility Audit runs hundreds of conversations across multiple models and buyer personas, so you see the full range of answers your actual buyers get, quantified and tracked over time.
Which AI models are covered?
Gumshoe covers the major AI models including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity. Model coverage depends on your plan: 4 models on the free sample, and 6 on Starter and Pro.
How often should I run one?
Starter and Pro plans include a monthly Visibility Audit, with lighter Snapshot Audits in between to track changes.
Is my first audit really free?
Yes. The free sample runs one Visibility Audit with 4 personas, 5 prompts per persona, and 4 AI models. No credit card, and nothing expires. It is one sample per customer, and it cannot be re-run. Run yours now.
