# Price checks for the alternatives pages

Public log of when the competitor prices on these pages were checked against the vendors' own pricing pages:

- https://citebrand.ai/alternatives/profound/
- https://citebrand.ai/alternatives/peec-ai/

## Procedure (first business day of each month)

1. Open each vendor pricing URL listed in the Sources section of both pages:
   - Profound: https://www.tryprofound.com/pricing
   - Peec AI: https://peec.ai/pricing
   - Otterly.ai: https://otterly.ai/pricing
   - Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit: https://www.semrush.com/solutions/ai-visibility/
   - Ahrefs Brand Radar: https://ahrefs.com/brand-radar
   - Scrunch AI: https://scrunch.com/pricing/
   - Writesonic: https://writesonic.com/pricing
   - Okara: https://okara.ai/pricing
   - Hall: https://usehall.com
2. Compare every price, prompt count and engine count in each page's "Short answer" list, table, "How to choose" section and FAQ with the vendor page.
3. If anything changed, update the page text and table.
4. Change the page's `Updated <Month Year>` line (and its `<time datetime>`), the dated line at the bottom of the page, and the page's `<lastmod>` in `sitemap.xml` only when a check was actually done.
5. Add a row to the log below, including vendors you could not check and why.
