LLMrefs and Mentionable take different philosophical approaches to the same problem. LLMrefs uses AI prompt volume estimates to discover prompts from your keywords. Mentionable scans your URL and suggests prompts based on your specific business.
Data-driven discovery vs. business-specific suggestions. Both have merit.
How the pricing compares
LLMrefs sells a single plan at $79/month with 500 tracked prompts across around 10 AI engines, after a 7-day free trial with no credit card.
Mentionable offers a 7-day free trial, no credit card required. Growth at €79/month gives you up to 115 prompts across all 7 AI engines. Pro at €149/month gives you up to 231 prompts across all 7 AI engines and 3 projects. Agency is €299/month with 5,000 credits, unlimited projects, and all 7 AI engines.
At €79/month for Mentionable Growth versus $79/month for LLMrefs, both sit at a similar price point.
The core difference: how you find prompts
LLMrefs leans into automation. Enter a keyword, and they use their prompt volume data to expand it into prompts people actually use. It's a data-first approach. You're tracking what real users ask, not guesses.
Mentionable takes a different route. Enter your URL, and it scans your site to suggest prompts that match your specific business, services, and positioning. You pick the ones that matter. More direct control, less automation.
Neither approach is wrong. LLMrefs discovers patterns from market-wide prompt data. Mentionable generates suggestions tailored to your business. The right choice depends on whether you want breadth (LLMrefs) or specificity (Mentionable).
Other differences worth noting
LLMrefs tracks around 10 AI engines. Mentionable tracks 7 (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, Google AI Mode, Google AI Overview), all available on every plan. If comprehensive platform coverage matters, LLMrefs offers broader coverage.
LLMrefs also supports 50+ countries and 20+ languages for international tracking. Mentionable sets a country per prompt across 29 countries, with 7 project languages.
On the flip side, Mentionable's URL-based suggestion system means you can start faster without needing to figure out which keywords to track.
On Pro and Agency plans, Mentionable also ships an MCP server. Connect it to Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, or ChatGPT and query your visibility data from your AI assistant. Agency customers additionally get a one-shot GEO audit: a client-ready white-label report (competitor ranking, personas, competitor matrix, prompt coverage, recommendations, content ideas, top sources). LLMrefs offers neither.
Every plan also includes an AI assistant built into the dashboard. Ask why a competitor gets cited more often and it answers from your own tracking data, then links to the page where you can act.
Which one fits you?
LLMrefs makes sense if you want around 10 AI engines instead of 7, prompt volume data sounds valuable for discovering what people actually ask, keyword-first automation fits how you work, and you need tracking in more than 7 languages.
Mentionable makes sense if URL-based suggestions match how you think about your business, you prefer choosing prompts directly rather than automated expansion, and 7 AI engines covers what you need.
The bottom line
Both are reasonable options at similar prices. LLMrefs offers more LLMs and data-driven discovery. Mentionable offers a simpler workflow and prompts tailored to your site.
Try Mentionable's 7-day free trial first to see how AI visibility tracking works. Use LLMrefs' 7-day trial to see if their keyword-first approach resonates with how you think about prompts. Then decide which approach fits your workflow.
