Enterprise depth without the enterprise contract
Profound is the category's best-known platform, built for Fortune 500 AEO teams. Its self-serve tiers track one to three engines; Claude, Gemini and Copilot sit behind an Enterprise contract. Askority gives all six engines, diagnostics and GA4 attribution on a monthly plan.

Six engines for $79, not three for $399
Profound's ladder is a coverage ladder: $99 buys ChatGPT, $399 buys three engines, everything else is a sales call. If your buyers use Gemini or Claude, you cannot see them without Enterprise.
A drop with a cause, not a drop with a dashboard
Profound stores answers over time and shows the trend well. What it does not do is name the competitor page that started being cited and link it to the fix. Askority marks the drop, lists the engine deltas and prompts lost, and opens the matching action.
From AI answer to session to conversion
Profound's Agent Analytics is about crawler behaviour. Askority connects to GA4 and attributes sessions and conversions by engine, region and the exact landing URL, so the report ends in revenue, not in share of voice.
Pick the one that fits the team you have
- You want all six major engines on a monthly plan without a sales call.

- You have to show AI traffic and conversions in GA4 by page.
- You are an enterprise team with a dedicated AEO owner and budget for a custom contract.

- Prompt Volumes panel data with demographics is core to your research.
Askority vs Profound: questions
Is Profound better than Askority?
Profound is the more complete enterprise platform: more engines at the top tier, consumer panel data and an agents layer. Askority is built for teams that want six engines, diagnostics and attribution on a monthly plan without procurement.
Can I migrate my prompt list from Profound?
Yes. Export prompts to CSV and import them in the Add brand wizard; topics and tags come with them.
Does Askority have Prompt Volumes?
Yes, on every plan. Our volumes are estimated from engine and search signals rather than a consumer panel, so treat them as relative demand rather than an audience census.
