AI visibility tracker

LLM Pulse + Ranqer: the affordable full stack

LLM Pulse is the mid-market AI visibility platform with transparent pricing and a real API. Ranqer is the content engine that moves the numbers LLM Pulse reports. Together they're the only stack under $250/month that covers both measurement and content execution for AI search.

What is LLM Pulse?

LLM Pulse is an all-in-one AI search visibility tracker covering ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Mode, AI Overviews, and Claude. The platform tracks branded prompts over time, analyses citations, runs sentiment on AI responses, and benchmarks Share of Voice against competitors.

The positioning is deliberately middle-of-the-market. More capable than basic mention-tracking tools (Otterly, AI Peekaboo), more accessible than enterprise-only platforms (Profound, Scrunch). Every tier includes unlimited team seats, a real REST API, Looker Studio connector, and MCP integration — features that usually live behind enterprise paywalls elsewhere.

A few things make LLM Pulse unique in the category: app store visibility tracking (iOS and Google Play), multi-project support on every plan from €49, white-label from the Growth tier, and transparent published pricing with no 'contact sales' tier until the top. Built for agencies running multiple client accounts and in-house teams that want API-level integration.

Who it's for

Agencies managing multiple clients, in-house marketing teams with a technical stack, and mid-market brands (Series A-C) that want enterprise-class tracking without enterprise pricing. Under $200/month retainer thinking, LLM Pulse Starter still fits. Teams serving one brand with a €49 budget and no API needs should look at Otterly instead.

The gap every tracker has

A tracker is a telemetry layer. It surfaces when your brand appears in AI answers, with what sentiment, and against which competitors. It does not cause the appearance. When LLM Pulse shows zero mentions for a high-value prompt, the fix lives upstream — in the sources the models cite. Reddit is the single largest of those sources, and tracking alone doesn't put you there.

How Ranqer fits in

Ranqer is the content engine that feeds what LLM Pulse measures.

LLM Pulse tells you the score. Ranqer plays the game. We find active Reddit threads where your buyers are asking about tools in your category, draft comments in a real user voice, and post them from vetted human accounts. Those threads are the exact content that ChatGPT, Perplexity, and AI Overviews cite when building answers, which is what LLM Pulse measures. LLM Pulse Growth (€99) plus Ranqer ($129) is a complete AI visibility stack for under $250/month — the only combination at that price that covers both measurement and execution.

The LLM Pulse + Ranqer loop

Track baseline across modelsLLM Pulse

LLM Pulse runs your tracked prompts across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and AI Overviews. Surfaces where your brand is named, where it's hedged, and where competitors take the slot.

Pull gap prompts via APILLM Pulse

Use the LLM Pulse API or Looker Studio connector to export prompts where your mention rate is zero or dropping. This becomes the targeting list for the content layer.

Seed Reddit threads with RanqerRanqer

Ranqer finds live Reddit threads mapped to those gap prompts, drafts contextual comments, and posts from vetted accounts. Threads feed back into AI model training and real-time retrieval within days.

Re-measure and iterateBoth

LLM Pulse re-tracks the same prompts on its daily cadence. Gap prompts move from absent to specific, sourced recommendations — visible in the Share of Voice dashboard within 3-6 weeks.

Frequently asked questions

Is LLM Pulse + Ranqer really under $250/month?

Yes. LLM Pulse Growth is €99 (around $108) and Ranqer starts at $129. Total ~$237/month for measurement and content execution across five AI models. The next step up — Profound Growth ($399) plus Ranqer ($129) — runs $528/month for largely the same measurement coverage and no built-in content layer.

Can I wire Ranqer's comment data into LLM Pulse dashboards?

LLM Pulse's API and MCP integration make this possible. Ranqer publishes comments and timestamps we can expose, LLM Pulse accepts custom tags and annotations on tracked prompts via API. Teams can timestamp each Ranqer-seeded thread inside LLM Pulse and correlate it with the Share of Voice delta on the same prompt 4-6 weeks later. This is the closest thing to true attribution for AI visibility work.

Does Ranqer replace what LLM Pulse does?

No. They solve opposite sides of the same pipeline. LLM Pulse measures what AI models say about you. Ranqer influences what AI models get to read. Every team running AI visibility as a channel needs both — which is why LLM Pulse doesn't pitch itself as a content tool and Ranqer doesn't pitch itself as a tracker.

How is LLM Pulse different from Profound if I'm already looking at one?

LLM Pulse is roughly 4x cheaper at comparable feature level, with more multi-project flexibility and a more mature API. Profound's edge is its Conversation Explorer panel data — real prompt volumes with demographic cuts. If that specific feature isn't a requirement, LLM Pulse covers 80-90% of Profound's use case at quarter the cost.

Is the white-label plan enough for an agency managing 5-10 clients?

Growth (€99) covers 2 projects — probably not enough for a multi-client agency. Scale (€299) covers 5 projects with priority support, and Scale+ (€599) covers 10. White-label branding is available from Growth up. Agencies typically land on Scale and combine with Ranqer's managed accounts for client delivery.
