Ahrefs Brand Radar review

Ahrefs Brand Radar ranks sixth and is the strongest pick for benchmarking without setup. Its AI Visibility Index runs more than 538 million search-backed prompts through AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot, so you can look up any brand's mentions, citations, AI share of voice and estimated impressions instantly for $199 per month. Custom prompts start at $50 per month and refresh daily, which covers niches the index misses, and paid Ahrefs plans already include 5 to 20 custom prompts. Because every prompt maps to Ahrefs keyword data, you can see the search demand behind your AI visibility, and AI traffic and bot analytics are free. The costs climb quickly: tracking custom prompts on all models costs $699 per month, Claude uses 8 checks per update, and the index works best for brands that already have meaningful search volume.
