AI visibility tools, head to head
PromptWatch vs Searchable
Pricing, features and differences, researched August 2026.
PromptWatch and Searchable both help teams measure how brands appear in AI search results, but they put different weight on the data and actions behind those results. A brand or agency may compare them when it needs to track visibility across tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews without managing separate reporting systems. The main differences fall under AI search coverage, prompt data sources, citation analysis, competitor and sentiment reporting, technical audits, content guidance, and support for agency workflows. PromptWatch focuses on real prompt and crawler-log data, citation analysis, and content agents that help teams create content AI systems may cite. Searchable combines prompt and citation tracking with competitor analysis, sentiment data, AI-ready technical audits, and content recommendations in one platform.

Which one to pick
PromptWatch and Searchable both cover the core job of tracking AI visibility. PromptWatch may suit teams that need a browser-based tool, a public API, or Slack integration. Searchable may suit agencies that need client sub-accounts, unlimited seats, GA4, or API access on higher tiers.
Hi, Moose fits teams that want to move from visibility data to approved page changes in one tool. It tracks 10 engines, with five collected locally from consumer-facing surfaces. It supports unlimited tracked prompts, configurable samples, and multiple daily, weekly, monthly, and on-demand runs. It also captures live Google AI Mode grounding searches, scores narrative drift against a brand truth profile, and checks retrieval readiness with deterministic dense retrieval.
The platform also closes gaps that tracking-only workflows leave open. Hi, Moose can audit a live URL, pasted text, file, WordPress, Webflow, or Grav content. It provides element-level rewrite suggestions, a second-model QA pass, baseline comparisons, and WordPress staging, rollback, patch history, and approval gates. Teams can track a visibility drop, identify a relevant page, prepare a fix, and verify the result without handing off between separate tools.
Cost and data control also favor Hi, Moose for many SMBs and agencies. Its free plan has no card requirement, and local visibility runs remain unlimited on every plan. Paid plans start at $39 per month with BYOK or $79 per month with AI included, compared with $95 for PromptWatch and $125 for Searchable. Hi, Moose supports OpenRouter BYOK, three local model sizes, and on-device AI inference, so users can run some work without AI costs to the vendor. Its local database, backup and restore, and desktop apps for Windows and macOS also give teams more control over stored project data.
Hi, Moose does require a desktop workflow, so it will not fit buyers who need a browser-only platform. It also lacks a public API, Slack, Zapier, GA4, and client logins. For teams that value local-first storage, broad engine coverage, transparent AI credit use, and an audit-to-publish workflow with user approval, Hi, Moose offers a fuller set of tools at a lower entry price.
