Semrush is the biggest name in SEO, and its AI Visibility Toolkit brings AI search tracking into the same login. Get Nodded is built for AI visibility first, with SEO data alongside. Both track how AI engines talk about your brand, but they're built for different teams. ## The short answer If your team already lives in Semrush and wants a first look at AI visibility next to its keyword and backlink data, the AI Visibility Toolkit is a convenient add-on. If you want to measure AI visibility in depth and then act on it with AI crawler analytics, content publishing and Reddit and backlink work, Get Nodded does more of the job for less money. ## Feature comparison | | Get Nodded | Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit | | --- | --- | --- | | AI engines | ChatGPT, AI Overviews, AI Mode, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot | ChatGPT, Google AI Mode / AI Overviews, Perplexity, Gemini (no Copilot found) | | Prompts at ~$99/mo | 50 prompts, 5 engines | 25 prompts | | Check frequency | 1 to 4 times a day | Daily prompt tracking; Brand Performance updates weekly | | Prompt research | Prompts suggested from your gaps | Prompt database with volume, difficulty and intent | | AI crawler analytics | 32 AI crawlers, live logs | Not available | | AI readiness audit | Full-site audit across 8 areas with fixes | AI search site audit, 100 pages | | Content | 10 to 20 articles + 20 to 40 LinkedIn posts a month per brand | Not included in the toolkit | | CMS publishing | WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, Ghost, HubSpot, Contentful, Sanity, Strapi, Notion and more | None | | Reddit & backlinks | Reddit thread finder, link gap, directories | Backlinks in the core SEO suite, not the toolkit | | Classic SEO | Search Console, rankings with AI Overview citations, page speed | Industry-leading keyword, backlink and audit data (separate plans) | | Pricing | From $49/mo | $99/mo per user and per domain; Semrush One bundles from $139/mo | ## Where Semrush wins - Prompt research: a database of AI prompts with estimated volume and difficulty is genuinely useful for deciding what to track. - SEO depth: no AI-first tool matches Semrush's keyword and backlink databases. - One vendor: if you already pay for Semrush, adding AI visibility means no new procurement. - Location coverage: prompt tracking across 220+ countries. ## Where Get Nodded wins - More AI coverage for the money: 50 prompts across five engines at $99, versus 25 prompts at $99 on the toolkit, and Copilot on Pro and Business. - AI crawler analytics: see GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and 28 more hitting your site, which Semrush's toolkit doesn't offer. - It closes the loop: articles researched from your gaps and published to your CMS, LinkedIn posts, Reddit threads worth joining and a backlink gap list. - Query fan-out: the searches ChatGPT ran behind each answer, which tell you exactly what to rank for. - Pricing that scales by plan, not per user and per domain. Tracking three brands on the toolkit costs about $297/mo before any SEO plan. ## Pricing Get Nodded: Starter $49/mo (1 brand, 50 prompts, ChatGPT + AI Overviews), Basic $99/mo (5 engines), Pro $299/mo (2 brands, 100 prompts, all 6 engines, 2 checks a day), Business $699/mo (5 brands, 150 prompts, 4 checks a day). 10% off yearly. Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit: $99/mo for one domain, 25 prompts and a 100-page AI audit. Extra users and extra domains are $99/mo each, and 50 more prompts are $60/mo. Semrush One plans, which bundle SEO and AI search, run from $139/mo to $549/mo billed monthly.

Choose Get Nodded if AI search is a channel you're actively trying to grow. You get deeper tracking per dollar, crawler analytics Semrush doesn't have, and the content, Reddit and backlink tools to improve your numbers, not just report them. Many teams run both: Semrush for keyword research, Get Nodded for AI visibility. ## How each tool fits into an SEO workflow Semrush's toolkit treats AI visibility as one more report inside an SEO suite. You research keywords, audit the site and check backlinks in Semrush, then glance at how AI engines mention you. That works well when SEO is the main job and AI search is something you want to keep an eye on. Get Nodded starts from the other end. The core loop is AI search: track the prompts buyers ask ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, AI Mode, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot, see which sources those answers cite, then fix the gaps with content, crawler fixes, Reddit and backlinks. Search Console data, Google rankings for each tracked prompt and page speed sit next to it, so you can see classic SEO and generative engine optimization (GEO) side by side. ## What to track in your first month Whichever tool you pick, the first month decides whether the data is useful. A simple plan: - Start with 20 to 50 prompts your buyers actually ask: category questions (“best tool for…”), problem questions and head-to-head comparisons. - Add the three to five competitors you lose deals to, so share of voice means something. - Let the numbers run for two weeks before acting. AI answers vary between runs, and a baseline stops you chasing noise. - Read the cited sources for your most important prompts. Those pages are your content and outreach list. - Check that AI crawlers can reach your key pages. In Get Nodded that's the crawler analytics and AI readiness audit. ## Running both, or switching Plenty of teams keep Semrush for keyword research and backlink data and use Get Nodded for AI visibility tracking and execution. The overlap is small: both show SEO basics, but Get Nodded's crawler analytics, query fan-out, content publishing and Reddit tools don't exist in Semrush's toolkit. If you're moving AI tracking from Semrush to Get Nodded, copy over the prompts you already track, add the competitors you care about, and use tags to group prompts by product or funnel stage so reports stay readable. ## A note on this comparison We make Get Nodded, so read this with that in mind.
