Comparison
citelity vs Otterly.AI
A self-serve AI search monitoring platform that runs your prompts across AI assistants on a schedule and reports where your brand appears, plus a GEO readiness audit.
citelity starts from the queries you already rank for in Search Console, writes the page or the edits, and then measures what changed in positions, AI citations and real GA4 traffic.
Both are good products. They are built for different people, which is the useful part of this page.
What Otterly.AI costs
Lite $29/mo (15 prompts), Standard $189/mo (100 prompts), Premium $489/mo (400 prompts), Enterprise on request. Annual billing takes roughly 15% off.
citelity is $49, $79 and $149 a month. Every engine is included on every plan and there are no per-engine add-on fees.

Where Otterly.AI is stronger
These are real advantages, not throat-clearing before the sales pitch. If one of them is what you need, buy their product.
- The lowest genuine entry price in the category, and Lite is a real plan rather than a decoy.
- Unlimited team members on every tier, which is unusual in a category that normally meters seats.
- Multi-country and multi-language tracking across 50+ markets — if you sell in several countries, this alone can decide it.
- A detailed crawlability and AI-readiness audit that reviewers consistently single out.
- A public API, an MCP server and a Claude Skill, so the data can feed your own reporting and agents.
Who should pick which
Pick Otterly.AI if
You run one brand across several countries and mainly need to watch where you appear, with a team that all needs access. Otterly does that cheaply and well, and no part of this page argues otherwise.
Pick citelity if
You own the site and the traffic is your revenue. You don't want a report telling you a competitor is cited instead of you — you want the page rewritten and then measured in Search Console and GA4.

Questions
Is citelity cheaper than Otterly.AI?
No. Otterly's Lite plan is $29 against our $49, and their entry tier is a real product rather than a trial. The difference is what happens after the report: Otterly tells you where you stand and audits your readiness, we write the fix and then measure whether it moved positions, citations and GA4 traffic.
Does Otterly.AI cover more engines?
Their core plans include four engines, with Gemini and Google AI Mode sold as add-ons. We include every engine we support on every plan, with no per-engine fees. If you need multi-country coverage, though, they cover far more markets than we do today.
