How much does Scrunch AI cost?

Starter is $250 a month billed annually, or $300 month to month, with 3 seats, 350 custom prompts, 1,000 industry prompts, and 3 personas. Growth is $417 annually or $500 monthly with 5 seats and roughly double the volumes. Extra seats are $25 a month, and Enterprise is custom.

Does Scrunch AI track Claude?

Yes. Scrunch covers ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Google's AI Mode and AI Overviews, and Meta in its base plans, which few tools do. Adacity covers ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude in the $39 full report.

Do I need a monitoring subscription at all?

Only if your team acts on the data weekly or daily. AI answers change over weeks and months, so if you check monthly or quarterly, a periodic report covers it.

When is Scrunch AI the better choice?

When you run an agency or a portfolio and need personas, seats, and trend lines across many markets, or when you want Meta and Google's AI surfaces covered. Adacity gives one business one clear answer per report.

A Scrunch AI alternative for small businesses

The short version:

Adacity is a pay-per-report alternative to Scrunch AI: one report, from $5, no subscription and no account. The $39 full report covers ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude.
Scrunch AI is built for teams: $250 a month billed annually buys 3 seats, 350 custom prompts, 1,000 industry prompts, and 3 personas across seven AI surfaces, Claude included.
If you check monthly or quarterly, a report fits better. If you run an agency or benchmark by persona, Scrunch is built for exactly that.

What is different about Adacity

You pay per report, not per seat

Scrunch prices for a team: seats, personas, and prompt volumes, from $3,000 a year billed annually. Adacity charges per report. Run one now, run another in three months to see if the work moved anything. Nothing recurring, and nothing to cancel.

Discovered questions, not configured lists

Scrunch runs the prompts you configure plus an industry library. Adacity looks at your site, what communities say about you, and what authoritative sources publish in your category, then runs the questions real buyers ask. You review the findings, not the setup.

Visibility by buying stage

Scrunch slices by persona and geography. Adacity slices by where the buyer is in the journey, from discovering the category to validating a pick, because a brand that owns discovery can still vanish at validation, and one blended score hides it.

When Scrunch AI is the better choice

We are honest about the fit. Scrunch is the stronger pick when:

You run an agency or a portfolio. Seats, personas, and per-market benchmarking are the product.
You want Claude covered on a subscription. Scrunch includes it in base plans along with Meta and Google's AI surfaces, which Adacity does not cover.
You want trend lines across thousands of industry prompts rather than a periodic snapshot.

If instead you want one clear answer about where you stand and what to fix, without a subscription, that is what Adacity is for. For the whole field, see the best AEO tools in 2026, compared. To see live rankings built from our report data, browse the free AEO industry leaderboards.
