Both Mentionable and RankScale are built for people who don't want to spend hundreds on AI visibility tools. RankScale tracks 17+ AI engines, with tracking credits from $99/month. Mentionable starts at €79/month (Growth) with a 7-day free trial and all 7 AI engines.
Two affordable approaches, two different philosophies.
How the pricing works
Mentionable uses fixed monthly plans with a 7-day free trial. You pay €79/month (Growth, up to 115 prompts, all 7 AI engines, 1 project), €149/month (Pro, up to 231 prompts, all 7 AI engines, 3 projects), or €299/month for Agency (5,000 credits, unlimited projects, all 7 AI engines), and you know exactly what you're getting: a monthly credit pool, with 1 credit per scan on most engines and 15 on Claude.
RankScale uses a credit system. Its Essentials plan costs $20/month but shows no tracking credits on the pricing page. Pro ($99/month) gives you 1,200 credits, roughly 4,800 AI responses, Growth ($385/month) 5,500 credits, and Enterprise ($780/month) 12,000.
The credit model can work in your favor if you have variable needs. But it does require you to think about credit budgeting, and credits can deplete faster than you'd expect when you're tracking across many engines.
What sets them apart
Both offer ways to try before you commit. Mentionable has a 7-day free trial, no credit card required. RankScale offers a 7-day free trial of its Pro plan.
RankScale covers 17+ AI engines, more than Mentionable's 7 (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, Google AI Mode, Google AI Overview), which are available on every plan. RankScale also includes Page Audits that check your pages against 200+ factors. Mentionable's Agency plan includes a one-shot GEO audit: a client-ready white-label report, structured as a shareable deliverable rather than an on-page score.
On the other hand, Mentionable generates prompt suggestions when you enter your URL. RankScale requires manual setup. If you're not sure which prompts to track, that guidance can save time.
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. RankScale offers MCP from its Growth plan at $385/month.
Every Mentionable 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?
RankScale makes sense if you want coverage beyond 7 engines (DeepSeek, Grok, Mistral), bundled page audits would help your optimization work, and you're comfortable managing credits.
Mentionable makes sense if you want a 7-day free trial to test, you prefer knowing exactly what you'll pay each month, you'd rather have prompt suggestions than manual setup, and you want MCP integration or a client-ready GEO audit.
The bottom line
Both are legitimate options in a space where many tools cost $100+ per month. RankScale gives you 17+ engines and page audits from $99/month. Mentionable gives you simplicity, straightforward pricing from €79/month, MCP integration (Pro and Agency), and a client-ready GEO audit on the Agency plan.
The best way to decide? Try Mentionable with a 7-day free trial first. If you find yourself wanting broader engine coverage and RankScale's page audits, its 7-day Pro trial is worth testing.
