ChatGPT answers, unedited

If your key requirement is AI visibility + citation tracking across multiple languages and regions, I’d shortlist Peec AI, Profound, and OtterlyAI.

Peec is particularly interesting for your use case because its API and platform support localized/multi-language visibility data, rather than simply translating an English prompt set. Toolsolved Citadex

Profound is worth considering if you're an enterprise with many markets and need granular citation/source analysis. Current comparisons describe it as having broad model coverage and particularly deep citation intelligence. licheo.com SEO Counselors

OtterlyAI is a more accessible option. It explicitly tracks brand mentions and citations across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Copilot, with country segmentation. Otterly

What I'd verify before buying

For a genuinely multilingual site, don't just ask whether a tool "supports languages." Test whether it can separately report:

• Language: English vs German vs French vs Japanese, etc.
• Market/location: US vs UK vs Germany vs France, etc.
• Localized prompts: ideally native-language prompts, not translations of one English prompt.
• AI engine: ChatGPT vs Gemini vs Perplexity vs Google AI Overviews/AI Mode.
• Citation URL: the exact page cited, not merely a brand mention.
• Citation frequency/share: how often your site is cited relative to competitors.
• Historical tracking: whether visibility/citations can be trended by market and language.
• API/export: important if you want to combine AI visibility with your existing SEO/GSC reporting.

One important distinction: "brand mentioned" and "website cited" are different metrics. For your use case I'd prioritize a platform that records the actual cited URL and lets you break that down by language × country × AI engine × prompt.

If you tell me roughly how many languages/countries you operate in and your monthly budget, I can compare Peec vs Profound vs Otterly vs Semrush/Ahrefs specifically for that setup. ayzeo.com

If you run a multilingual, multi-region site, I’d shortlist platforms based specifically on whether they can separate language + country/market + AI engine + citations, rather than just giving you one global “AI visibility” score.

My shortlist

• ahrefs.com — probably the strongest fit if you already use Ahrefs. It tracks AI mentions and citations across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode and Claude, and lets you research regions and custom prompts. It also distinguishes mentioned from actually cited pages/domains. Ahrefs Help Center Ahrefs
• Profound — worth evaluating if you need an enterprise-oriented GEO platform with broad AI-engine coverage and detailed prompt/answer monitoring. Current comparisons report coverage across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Copilot, DeepSeek and Google AI Overviews. Austin Heaton Hiveminds
• Peec AI — another good specialist option for monitoring AI visibility and cited sources, particularly if you want a dedicated GEO/AEO workflow rather than an SEO suite. Austin Heaton Hiveminds
• Otterly.AI — useful for ongoing prompt-level monitoring and citation tracking, with a lower-cost entry point than some enterprise platforms. Austin Heaton
• Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit — makes sense if your organization already lives in Semrush and wants AI visibility incorporated into the existing SEO stack. Its current coverage includes ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Gemini and Perplexity. Hiveminds

For your particular use case

I'd put Ahrefs Brand Radar and Profound at the top of the evaluation list, but test them with your actual markets before buying.

The important question isn't simply “does it support multiple languages?” It's:

Can I run the same intent set independently in Germany/German, France/French, Japan/Japanese, US/English, etc., and see which URLs/domains each AI engine cites?

You want a dashboard roughly like:

That last distinction—mention vs citation vs which specific localized URL was cited—is particularly important for a multilingual site. Ahrefs explicitly reports citations separately from pages that were merely found/retrieved by the AI system. Ahrefs Help Center

One caveat: AI-visibility datasets are still sampling systems, not a complete measurement of every answer users receive. Ahrefs, for example, says its metrics are based on large sets of search-backed prompts rather than private conversations or every real-world AI interaction. Ahrefs

If you tell me which languages/countries you operate in and roughly how many prompts/markets you need to monitor, I can narrow this to 2–3 platforms and compare their language/geo coverage, citation tracking, prompt volume, API/export capabilities, and pricing.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d specifically look for a platform that tracks prompt × language × country × AI engine, and exposes the actual cited URLs, rather than giving you only a blended “AI visibility score.”

Based on current 2026 capabilities:

Otterly is particularly aligned with your use case: it explicitly advertises 65+ countries and languages, tracks every citation and cited URL, and lets you analyze performance market-by-market rather than collapsing everything into a global figure. Otterly Otterly

Profound is worth looking at if you're an enterprise and need higher-volume prompt monitoring and detailed citation analysis across many AI systems. Current comparisons document coverage across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Copilot, DeepSeek and Google AI Overviews. Hiveminds

Peec AI is another good candidate if your emphasis is separating brand mentions from actual source citations and comparing markets/competitors. Hiveminds

What I'd test in a demo

For your situation, don't just ask “does it support multiple languages?” Ask the vendor to demonstrate something like:

Germany + German + ChatGPT + 50 prompts → which URLs are cited?

Then:

US + English + same prompts → how does the citation set change?

And ideally:

France + French + same intent → which competitors are cited instead of us?

You want to be able to see citation URL, cited domain, prompt, language, country, engine, date, competitor and historical change. The distinction between mentioned and actually cited is important—different tools can produce substantially different visibility numbers depending on how they measure it. Austin Heaton

If you tell me roughly how many languages/countries you operate in (e.g. 10 languages × 30 countries) and whether you're enterprise or SMB, I can narrow this to 2–3 platforms and compare their geographic/language tracking, citation depth, API/export capabilities, and likely cost.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d shortlist these platforms rather than using a generic rank tracker:

My pick: OtterlyAI

For your particular use case, OtterlyAI looks like the strongest starting point. It explicitly supports 65+ countries and languages, tracks citations and brand mentions, and monitors multiple AI search surfaces. Its citation tracking records the cited domains/URLs and changes over time. Otterly Otterly

That's important because you don't just want to know:

"Is our brand mentioned in ChatGPT?"

You want something closer to:

France → French prompt → ChatGPT → brand mentioned → your /fr/ page cited → competitor cited 3× more → citation position changed since last month.

If multilingual/geo accuracy is the #1 requirement

I'd also seriously test Citenso. It advertises 27 languages and 30+ countries, with geographic simulation and citation/visibility analysis across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity. Citenso

Menra is another interesting option if you want very frequent monitoring. It supports regional drill-down and explicitly analyzes the citation sources behind AI answers. Menra

One thing I'd scrutinize before buying

Don't compare these tools only on the number of "AI engines" they support. For an international site, I'd evaluate them on four dimensions:

1. True geo targeting — Can you test France rather than merely "French"?
2. Language × country combinations — e.g. French/Canada vs French/France.
3. URL-level citations — Can you see which exact page was cited?
4. Engine-specific behavior — Does the tool distinguish localized results from global results rather than pretending every engine supports geographic targeting?

This last point matters: for example, SERPs explicitly notes that ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity accept location parameters, while Gemini and Grok don't expose the same location parameter, so it labels those results as global rather than claiming they're locally generated. SERPs

If you tell me roughly how many languages/countries you operate in (e.g. 8 languages × 20 countries) and whether you're B2B or B2C, I can narrow this to the 2–3 platforms I'd actually shortlist and compare their pricing, API, prompt volume, and geo/language capabilities.

"Is our brand mentioned in ChatGPT?"

You want something closer to:

France → French prompt → ChatGPT → brand mentioned → your /fr/ page cited → competitor cited 3× more → citation position changed since last month.

If multilingual/geo accuracy is the #1 requirement

I'd also seriously test Citenso. It advertises 27 languages and 30+ countries, with geographic simulation and citation/visibility analysis across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity.

Menra is another interesting option if you want very frequent monitoring. It supports regional drill-down and explicitly analyzes the citation sources behind AI answers.

One thing I'd scrutinize before buying

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d prioritize platforms that let you control language + country/location + exact prompts, rather than relying only on a global AI-visibility score.

My shortlist

Otterly is particularly interesting for your use case: its current documentation lists 50+ countries and languages, seven AI engines, and citation/link tracking. Otterly Otterly

Ahrefs is stronger if you want to connect AI visibility with traditional SEO. Brand Radar tracks mentions, citations, cited pages, AI share of voice, and lets you specify the LLM, location, and refresh frequency for custom prompts. Ahrefs Help Center Ahrefs Help Center Ahrefs Help Center It also explicitly supports analyzing AI visibility across different regions. Ahrefs

Semrush is worth considering if your team already lives in Semrush: its AI Visibility report includes mentions, citations, cited pages, LLM distribution, and mentions by country. Semrush

What I'd choose

If your requirement is something like:

“Track our English, Spanish, French, German and Japanese sites separately, see whether ChatGPT/Gemini/Perplexity/etc. recommend us in each market, and identify which URLs competitors are getting cited instead of us.”

I'd start with OtterlyAI.

If you're already heavily invested in Ahrefs, I'd choose Ahrefs Brand Radar instead. Its advantage is the combination of a very large search-backed prompt corpus and custom geographic/LLM tracking. Its current index covers hundreds of millions of prompts across AI search platforms. Ahrefs Ahrefs

One important distinction: don't evaluate these tools solely on their “AI visibility score.” For international SEO, I'd want a dashboard broken down at minimum by:

• Country
• Language
• AI platform
• Prompt/topic
• Brand mention
• Citation / cited URL
• Competitor mentioned
• Competitor cited URL
• Share of voice
• Change over time

That lets you discover things like “We're strong in English/US but almost invisible in German/Germany, and German AI answers are citing third-party sites rather than our German content.”

If you tell me which countries/languages and which AI engines matter most, I can narrow this to the best 2–3 platforms and compare their actual coverage, pricing, API, and regional capabilities.

Semrush is worth considering if your team already lives in Semrush: its AI Visibility report includes mentions, citations, cited pages, LLM distribution, and mentions by country. semrush.com

What I'd choose

If your requirement is something like:

“Track our English, Spanish, French, German and Japanese sites separately, see whether ChatGPT/Gemini/Perplexity/etc. recommend us in each market, and identify which URLs competitors are getting cited instead of us.”

I'd start with OtterlyAI.

If you're already heavily invested in Ahrefs, I'd choose Ahrefs Brand Radar instead. Its advantage is the combination of a very large search-backed prompt corpus and custom geographic/LLM tracking. Its current index covers hundreds of millions of prompts across AI search platforms.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d prioritize platforms that can segment AI visibility by language + country/market + AI engine, while also showing the actual URLs being cited.

My shortlist

My first choice for your use case would be OtterlyAI. It explicitly supports 65+ countries and languages, and its citation tracking identifies the domains and individual URLs cited in AI answers. It also lets you break visibility down by engine and market. Otterly Otterly

For example, you could structure monitoring like:

• 🇺🇸 English / US
• 🇬🇧 English / UK
• 🇩🇪 German / Germany
• 🇫🇷 French / France
• 🇯🇵 Japanese / Japan
• 🇧🇷 Portuguese / Brazil

…and track the same commercial prompts in each market, then compare visibility → mentions → citations → cited URL → competitor.

One important distinction

Don't buy a platform merely because it gives you an "AI visibility score." For a multilingual site, I'd require these five things:

1. Country-level querying — not just language.
2. Language-specific prompts — e.g. native German queries rather than English translated into German.
3. AI-engine separation — ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Copilot, etc.
4. Actual citation URLs — so you can see whether /de/, /fr/, /jp/, etc. are being cited.
5. Competitor/source analysis — which local publishers, directories, Reddit threads, competitors, etc. are getting cited instead of you.

Otterly currently checks most of those boxes and says it monitors seven major AI search experiences, with citation-level URL tracking and market segmentation. Otterly Otterly

If you're an enterprise with dozens of markets and need governance/API/reporting, I'd put Profound alongside Otterly in the evaluation. If you're primarily an SEO/content team, I'd also trial Peec.

If you tell me roughly how many languages/countries you operate in (e.g. 8 languages / 25 countries) and whether you're B2B, ecommerce, or publishing, I can narrow this to the 2–3 platforms I'd actually shortlist, including pricing and the specific differences in regional/citation tracking.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d prioritize platforms that can segment AI visibility by country + language + AI engine, while also showing the actual URLs being cited.

My shortlist

For your specific requirement, I'd start with OtterlyAI. Its current feature set explicitly supports 65+ countries and languages, and it tracks individual citations/URLs as well as brand mentions. Otterly Otterly

It also tracks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Copilot and Claude, allowing you to compare visibility across engines and markets. Otterly Otterly

What I'd measure for a multilingual site

Don't just track "AI visibility = 37%." I'd structure the monitoring matrix as:

• Market: US, UK, Germany, France, Japan, etc.
• Language: English, German, French, Japanese, etc.
• AI engine: ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Claude, Copilot
• Prompt type: branded, non-branded, commercial, informational
• Brand position: mentioned / recommended / ranked
• Citation: which domain and which exact URL was cited
• Competitors: who gets cited instead
• Citation share: your citations vs. competitors
• Local-market differences: e.g. "We're #1 in US ChatGPT but absent in German Gemini"

That last dimension is particularly important. A global aggregate can make a site look healthy while completely hiding a problem such as strong English visibility but almost zero visibility for German or Japanese queries.

Otterly specifically says its market optimization is designed to show performance "market by market" rather than as one global number, and its citation tracking records cited domains/URLs and changes over time. Otterly

One important caveat

I'd trial two platforms against the same prompt set before committing. AI visibility measurements aren't standardized, and different platforms can produce different results because of differences in query execution, personalization, geography, and engine access. Otterly itself notes that manually querying an AI platform can produce different results because AI platforms can incorporate factors such as location and user history. Otterly

If you tell me which countries/languages you operate in (e.g. US/EN, Germany/DE, France/FR, Japan/JA) and roughly how many prompts/pages you want to monitor, I can narrow this down to 2–3 platforms and compare their multilingual coverage, citation granularity, API/reporting, and likely cost.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d put OtterlyAI at the top of the shortlist right now.

Best options

Otterly specifically advertises 65+ countries and languages, daily tracking of citations, and tracking across seven AI search engines including ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot and Claude. Otterly Otterly

What I'd prioritize for your use case

The important distinction is that you don't just want a tool that says "your brand was mentioned." For international GEO/AEO, you want to be able to segment:

• Country: US vs. UK vs. Germany vs. France, etc.
• Language: English vs. German vs. French, etc.
• AI engine: ChatGPT vs. Gemini vs. Perplexity vs. Google AI
• Prompt: the exact question being asked
• Brand mention: whether you're mentioned
• Citation: which URL/domain the AI actually cites
• Citation position: whether you're the primary source or buried among competitors
• Competitors: who gets cited instead
• Sentiment/positioning: how the AI describes your company
• Change over time: whether your visibility is improving after SEO/content changes

Otterly's citation tracking goes down to the cited URL, while its analytics can compare mentions, share of voice, position, sentiment and citations across engines. Otterly

My recommendation

If you're choosing one platform specifically because you operate internationally, I'd evaluate them in this order:

1. OtterlyAI — strongest apparent fit for country/language-level monitoring and citation tracking.
2. Profound — worth evaluating if you're an enterprise and need deeper AI-search intelligence.
3. Peec AI — attractive middle ground for international marketing teams.
4. Semrush — especially compelling if your existing SEO workflow is already in Semrush.
5. Ahrefs — similarly attractive if Ahrefs is already your SEO source of truth.

One important caveat: don't compare vendors based on their headline "visibility score." Two platforms can produce different scores because they use different prompts, locations, sampling and AI-search interfaces. The more useful comparison is whether they expose the actual AI answer + cited URLs + country/language + prompt. Austin Heaton

If you tell me roughly how many countries/languages you operate in and whether you're B2B, ecommerce, SaaS, or publisher, I can narrow this to the best 2–3 platforms and compare their exact international tracking capabilities and pricing.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d shortlist these platforms:

My pick for your use case

1. Profound — if you're an enterprise with many markets.

Profound specifically supports 30+ languages and 150+ regions, and lets you analyze visibility, share of voice, citations, competitors, topics and sentiment across regions. Profound Profound

That makes it particularly attractive if, for example, you need to compare:

• English / US
• German / Germany
• French / France
• Spanish / Spain + Latin America
• Japanese / Japan
• localized prompts and competitors by market

2. OtterlyAI — probably the easiest one to pilot.

Otterly says it monitors 65+ countries and languages, tracks individual website/URL citations, and covers seven major AI search experiences. Its reporting can break visibility down by engine, prompt and market. Otterly Otterly

The URL-level citation tracking is particularly useful if your question isn't merely "Does AI mention us?" but "Which localized pages are actually being cited?" Otterly

3. Peec AI — worth considering if ChatGPT is your priority.

Peec tracks visibility, position, sentiment and share of voice and identifies the sources most frequently cited for your prompts. It also exposes the sources influencing ChatGPT visibility, which can be useful for your earned-media/content strategy. Peec AI Peec AI

What I'd test before buying

For a multilingual site, don't evaluate these platforms using just their headline number of supported languages. Ask each vendor to demonstrate:

1. Language × country tracking — e.g. German in Germany vs German in Switzerland.
2. Localized SERP/AI environments — not simply translating an English prompt.
3. Citation URL tracking — whether /de/, /fr/, /ja/ etc. are distinguished.
4. Citation position and frequency — not just whether your domain appeared.
5. Competitor visibility by market.
6. AI engine coverage per country — coverage can vary by region. Profound, for example, notes that coverage is strongest in the US, UK and selected European markets. Profound Help Center
7. Historical trend data and API/export capabilities.
8. Prompt localization — ideally native-language prompts rather than machine-translated versions.

If you tell me roughly how many languages/countries you operate in (e.g. 8 languages / 25 countries) and whether you're B2B, ecommerce, or content/SEO, I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 and compare pricing, coverage, APIs, and citation granularity.

3. Peec AI — worth considering if ChatGPT is your priority.

Peec tracks visibility, position, sentiment and share of voice and identifies the sources most frequently cited for your prompts. It also exposes the sources influencing ChatGPT visibility, which can be useful for your earned-media/content strategy.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d prioritize platforms that let you segment AI visibility by language + market + prompt, while also exposing the actual cited URLs/domains, not just a visibility score.

My shortlist

Otterly LLMly Citadex### My pick: OtterlyAI

otterly.ai is probably the first platform I'd evaluate for your use case.

It currently says it covers 65+ countries and languages and tracks visibility/citations across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Copilot and Claude. Importantly, it doesn't just tell you "you were mentioned"—it tracks which URLs AI systems actually cited, including competitor citations. Otterly

For an international site, I'd want to build something like:

• 🇺🇸 English / United States
• 🇬🇧 English / United Kingdom
• 🇩🇪 German / Germany
• 🇫🇷 French / France
• 🇪🇸 Spanish / Spain
• 🇯🇵 Japanese / Japan
• etc.

Then run the same intent/prompt set in each market, rather than translating keywords mechanically. That lets you see, for example, that you're highly visible in English but a competitor dominates the German AI results.

One particularly interesting alternative: LLMly

llmly.ai is worth looking at if citation intelligence is more important to you than a huge enterprise feature set.

It explicitly supports market + language prompt sets, and reports cited domains and URLs, competitors, mentions, position and sentiment at the prompt level. LLMly

The limitation is engine coverage: it currently supports ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, with Perplexity listed as coming soon. LLMly

If you're an enterprise

I'd put Profound into the evaluation as well. Current comparisons generally position Profound toward enterprise workflows, while Otterly is more lightweight and Peec is strong for share-of-voice reporting. Viali AI Austin Heaton

If you tell me roughly how many languages/countries you operate in (e.g. 10 languages / 30 markets) and whether you're B2B, ecommerce, travel, SaaS, etc., I can narrow this down to the 2–3 platforms I'd actually shortlist and compare their pricing, API, regional accuracy, citation data, and reporting capabilities.

For a multi-language site, you’ll want a platform that does more than track “mentions.” The important capabilities are:

• Prompt tracking by language and country (e.g., the same query in English US vs. German Germany)
• Citation/source extraction (which pages, domains, publications, or competitors AI relies on)
• Engine coverage (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Google AI Overviews, etc.)
• Regional simulation (answers can differ by location even in the same language)
• Historical trends and competitor comparisons

Some platforms worth evaluating:

My shortlist by use case

For a global enterprise website (many locales, SEO team, reporting needs):

• Omnia
• Trackbase
• Indexly

For GEO/AI-search optimization work (content teams trying to increase citations):

• Rovoki
• Omnia
• Asky

For markets where language differences matter heavily (Europe, LATAM, APAC):

• Citenso
• Rovoki
• PSentry psentry

Evaluation checklist before buying

Ask vendors to demonstrate:

1. “Show me the same prompt run in 5 countries.”

Example:

• English US: “best accounting software for startups”
• French France: “meilleur logiciel comptable pour startups”
• German Germany: “beste Buchhaltungssoftware für Startups”
• “Show me every citation URL, not just mentions.”

A brand mention without a citation source is much less actionable.

3. “Can I segment by locale?”

You want dashboards like:

• /en-us/
• /fr-fr/
• /de-de/
• /ja-jp/
• “Can you compare competitors per market?”

AI visibility is often fragmented: you may win English but lose German or Japanese.

For a multinational site, I would generally prioritize citation depth + geo/language accuracy over the number of AI engines tracked. The ability to answer “Why is AI recommending my competitor in France but not us?” is usually more valuable than simply knowing your mention score.

For a multi-language, multi-region site, you’ll want an AI visibility platform that can do more than track brand mentions. The important capabilities are:

• Prompt tracking by language and country (e.g., “best CRM in Germany” vs “meilleur CRM en France”)
• Citation/source extraction (which domains and pages AI engines rely on)
• Engine coverage (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Google AI Overviews, etc.)
• Competitor comparison by market
• Historical tracking (visibility trends after content/localization changes)

Some platforms worth evaluating:

My shortlist by use case

Global enterprise (many countries, many locales)

• Sona — strongest if you need executive reporting across many markets. Sona
• Omnia — good balance of AI tracking and SEO workflow. Omnia

International SEO/GEO team (content optimization focus)

• Rovoki — particularly aligned with multilingual prompt/citation analysis. Rovoki
• Citenso — useful if European languages are a priority. Citenso

Agency managing multiple clients

• Omnia or Indexly because reporting and competitor comparisons are central features. Omnia Indexly

Before choosing, I’d test each with your actual buyer prompts rather than generic keywords. For example:

• English: “best accounting software for startups”
• German: “beste Buchhaltungssoftware für Startups”
• Japanese: “スタートアップ向け会計ソフトおすすめ”

Then compare:

1. Does the AI answer change by country?
2. Are your local pages being cited?
3. Are local competitors replacing you?
4. Are citations coming from your owned content, media, directories, or forums?

For a global site, I’d prioritize citation-level data over a single AI visibility score—the score tells you that you are losing; citations usually tell you why.

For a multi-language, multi-region site, you’ll want an AI visibility / GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) platform that can track:

• AI answers by language
• AI answers by country/region
• brand mentions
• source citations (which URLs AI engines use)
• competitor visibility
• different AI engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, etc.)

The strongest options currently are:

My shortlist for a multilingual website

1. Global enterprise / many markets

Choose PSentry, Citenso, or Rankscale.

These are the closest fit if you have:

• English + German + French + Spanish + Japanese, etc.
• separate regional domains or subfolders
• different competitors by country
• localization teams

psentry Citenso Rankscale.ai### 2. SEO team adding AI visibility

Choose SERPs or a broader SEO suite that has AI tracking.

Useful if you already manage:

• Google rankings
• backlinks
• content optimization
• technical SEO

SERPs### 3. Content / marketing team focused on AI citations

Choose Menra or similar citation-first tools.

Good when the main question is:

“When someone asks AI for recommendations in Germany/France/US, does it cite our content?”

Menra## Evaluation checklist for your use case

Before buying, test whether the platform can:

• Run the same prompt in different languages

Example:

• “best CRM software for manufacturers” (English)
• “beste CRM-Software für Hersteller” (German)
• Change the AI user location

• US
• UK
• France
• Japan
• etc.
• Show:

• “mentioned but not cited”
• “cited URL”
• “competitor cited instead”
• “AI engine differences”
• Track localized URLs:

• /en/
• /de/
• /fr/
• country domains (.de, .fr, .jp)
• Export reports for regional teams

For a large international site, I would usually shortlist PSentry + Citenso + Rankscale first, then test them with 20–50 real customer prompts translated into your priority languages. psentry Citenso Rankscale.ai

If you share your number of languages, regions, and whether you care more about ChatGPT/Perplexity citations or Google AI Overviews, I can narrow this to 2–3 platforms.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d prioritize platforms that can distinguish language + country + AI engine + citation URL, rather than giving you one global “AI visibility” score.

My shortlist

For your specific use case, I'd start with OtterlyAI

Otterly currently says it supports 65+ countries and languages, and it tracks citations and mentions across 7 AI engines, including ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot and Claude. It also lets you monitor AI results as if the search were being performed from the selected country, which is particularly important for regional differences. Otterly OtterlyAI

That matters because you could have something like:

• English → US → ChatGPT
• English → UK → ChatGPT
• German → Germany → Google AI Overviews
• French → France → Perplexity
• Japanese → Japan → Gemini

…and see different visibility, competitors and citation sources for each market.

It also explicitly tracks every cited domain/URL, rather than merely telling you that your brand was mentioned. Otterly

If you're an enterprise

I'd put Profound vs. OtterlyAI vs. Peec AI through a real-world test using your own prompts. Independent 2026 comparisons generally position Profound toward enterprise/deeper analytics, Peec toward mid-market analytics, and Otterly toward accessible multi-market monitoring. Austin Heaton StayFound

The key thing I'd test isn't the headline number of languages. Ask each vendor to demonstrate:

1. Country-level localization — does “France” actually produce French/French-market results?
2. Language-level prompting — can you explicitly run the same intent in 10+ languages?
3. Citation URL tracking — can you see which exact page was cited?
4. Citation changes over time — did /de/product-x replace /en/product-x?
5. AI-engine segmentation — ChatGPT vs Gemini vs Perplexity vs Google AI.
6. Competitor/share-of-voice by market.
7. API/export — important if you want to combine AI visibility with your SEO/GA4 data warehouse.
8. Prompt templates — so translations of the same commercial intent can be compared consistently.

One important distinction: brand mention ≠ citation. For GEO, I'd make citation rate and cited URLs first-class KPIs, alongside mention rate and share of voice. A tool that gives you a big “visibility score” but doesn't expose the underlying answers and URLs is much less useful for optimization. Austin Heaton

If you tell me roughly how many languages/countries you operate in (e.g. 8 languages × 20 countries) and whether you're SMB, agency, or enterprise, I can narrow this to the 2–3 platforms I'd actually shortlist, including approximate pricing and what each can/can't do for multilingual tracking.

For a multi-language, multi-region site, you’ll want an AI visibility platform that does more than track mentions. The important capabilities are:

• Language-level tracking (e.g., English vs German vs Japanese answers)
• Geo simulation (US vs EU vs APAC results)
• Citation tracking (which URLs/domains AI models cite)
• Prompt-level monitoring (the exact questions customers ask)
• Competitor comparison by market
• Support for multiple AI engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, AI Overviews, etc.)

Some platforms worth evaluating:

My shortlist by scenario

If you have a truly global site (20+ markets):

• Start with PSentry, Citenso, or Rankscale. They appear most aligned with language + regional visibility measurement. psentry citenso.com Rankscale.ai

If you are an SEO/content team trying to improve citations:

• Look at Citations.io, Menra, or Chatobserver because they emphasize citation sources, competitor gaps, and prompt tracking. Citations Menra Chatobserver

If you operate B2B internationally:

• PSentry is positioned specifically around export-market visibility and multilingual AI discovery. psentry

Before choosing, test these questions

Ask vendors to demonstrate:

1. “Show me the same prompt asked in English, French, German, and Japanese.”
2. “Can you tell me whether the cited source was my local domain (example.de) or my global domain?”
3. “Can you separate visibility by country, not just language?”
4. “Can you show lost citations over time?”
5. “Can I upload hundreds of prompts from our customer research?”

For a multilingual enterprise site, I would prioritize geo + language accuracy over the size of the AI engine list. A tool that says you rank globally but cannot tell you that you disappear in Germany or Japan is usually less actionable.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d shortlist platforms based specifically on whether they can run native-language prompts from different geographies and expose the actual URLs/domains cited, rather than just giving you a global “AI visibility” score.

My shortlist

My first choice would be otterly.ai if you need lots of markets. It explicitly supports 65+ countries and languages, tracks citations down to the cited domain/URL, and provides API/Looker Studio connectivity. Otterly Otterly

For example, you could structure monitoring as:

English → US / UK / Australia
German → Germany / Austria / Switzerland
French → France / Canada
Spanish → Spain / Mexico
Japanese → Japan
Portuguese → Brazil / Portugal

and compare ChatGPT / Google AI Overviews / Perplexity / Gemini, etc., by market rather than treating your AI visibility as one global number.

If citation intelligence is the priority

I'd also seriously evaluate useomnia.com. It says it can track prompts in any country and language, while retaining the full AI response and its citations. It also uses geographically located browser sessions rather than relying solely on API responses, which is particularly useful when you care about what users in different countries actually see. Omnia

Semrush Enterprise AIO is the one I'd look at if you're already heavily invested in enterprise SEO. Its current offering reports 15 regional AI search databases and tracks mentions, citations and sentiment across major LLMs, with drill-down by market, city and product. Semrush for Enterprise

For a Europe-heavy operation, citenso.com is unusually explicit about multilingual coverage: 27 languages and 30+ countries, including all 24 EU official languages plus Norwegian, Ukrainian and Russian. Citenso

What I'd require in your evaluation

Don't just ask vendors “Do you support multiple languages?” Ask them to demonstrate these five things:

1. Native prompts — Does German tracking actually run German prompts, or translate English prompts?
2. Geo execution — Can you specify Germany vs Switzerland vs Austria, not merely “German”?
3. Citation URL — Can you see the exact page cited, not merely that your domain was mentioned?
4. Engine separation — Can you compare ChatGPT vs Gemini vs Perplexity vs Google AI Overviews?
5. Historical market × language data — Can you see whether visibility/citation rate changed in Germany, for example, over the last 6 months?

That distinction is important: AI answers can vary substantially by language and location, so a site can have excellent English/US visibility while being almost absent from the corresponding German or Japanese answers. OnlyAEO

If you tell me roughly how many languages/countries you operate in (e.g. 8 languages × 20 countries) and which AI engines matter most, I can narrow this to the 2–3 platforms I'd actually put through an enterprise trial, including pricing and API/reporting differences.

English → US / UK / Australia
German → Germany / Austria / Switzerland
French → France / Canada
Spanish → Spain / Mexico
Japanese → Japan
Portuguese → Brazil / Portugal

and compare ChatGPT / Google AI Overviews / Perplexity / Gemini, etc., by market rather than treating your AI visibility as one global number.

If citation intelligence is the priority

I'd also seriously evaluate useomnia.com. It says it can track prompts in any country and language, while retaining the full AI response and its citations. It also uses geographically located browser sessions rather than relying solely on API responses, which is particularly useful when you care about what users in different countries actually see. useomnia.com

Semrush Enterprise AIO is the one I'd look at if you're already heavily invested in enterprise SEO. Its current offering reports 15 regional AI search databases and tracks mentions, citations and sentiment across major LLMs, with drill-down by market, city and product.

For a multi-language, multi-region website, you’ll want an AI visibility platform that can do more than track “mentions.” The important capabilities are:

• AI engine coverage (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews, etc.)
• Citation/source tracking (which pages and domains AI models cite)
• Country + language segmentation
• Prompt tracking by market
• Competitor comparison
• Historical trends
• Export/API access for enterprise reporting

A few platforms worth evaluating:

My shortlist by use case

Global enterprise (50+ countries)

I’d look first at:

1. Profound
2. DemandSphere
3. Ahrefs Brand Radar

These are better if you need governance, reporting, multiple teams, and integration with existing SEO workflows. CitationDesk DemandSphere

International SEO team managing many languages

I’d compare:

1. Peec AI
2. Omnia
3. Rankscale

They are more focused on the actual AI answer layer: “Does the model recommend us in German, Japanese, French, Spanish, etc., and what sources is it citing?” Omnia Rankscale.ai

If citations are the main KPI

Prioritize tools that expose:

• exact cited URL
• citation frequency
• citation share vs competitors
• language/region differences
• prompt-level results

A simple “AI visibility score” is usually not enough for a multilingual site because the same question can produce different answers depending on locale and language. OnlyAEO

Questions I’d ask vendors before buying

1. Can you run the same prompt in 10+ languages and compare results?
2. Can I set location (e.g., France vs Canada French vs Belgium French)?
3. Do you store full AI responses, not just scores?
4. Can I see every URL/domain cited by the AI model?
5. Can I export data via API or CSV?
6. Do you track my competitors in each market?

For a truly global site, I would avoid choosing based only on the number of AI engines tracked. The harder problem is usually localized citation discovery: finding why your German pages are invisible while your English pages are cited, or why AI prefers third-party sources over your own localized content. OnlyAEO

If you share your scale (number of languages/countries, B2B vs ecommerce, and whether you need enterprise reporting), I can narrow this to 2–3 platforms.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d prioritize platforms that actually execute/measure prompts by language + geography, rather than tools that give you one global AI-visibility score.

My shortlist

My recommendation

I'd start with OtterlyAI. It specifically advertises monitoring across 65+ countries and languages, while tracking every cited domain/URL and brand mention. That's unusually close to your requirement. Otterly

If you need granular prompt-level data and an API for your own BI dashboards, I'd also evaluate Indexly. It queries each language separately and exposes prompt, response, citation, and mention data through an API. Indexly

If geo accuracy is your biggest concern—e.g. "What does ChatGPT recommend to someone in Germany asking in German versus someone in the US asking in English?"—I'd put Omnia and Asky high on the evaluation list. Omnia says it runs browsers from real locations and supports any country/language; Asky says it varies language, region, login state and prompt phrasing through front-end agents. Omnia Asky

One important thing to test in demos

Don't just ask vendors whether they support "multilingual." Ask them to demonstrate this exact matrix:

Brand × Prompt × AI engine × Language × Country × Citation URL × Date

For example:

• ChatGPT → German → Germany
• ChatGPT → English → UK
• ChatGPT → French → France
• Gemini → German → Germany
• Perplexity → Spanish → Spain
• Claude → Japanese → Japan

You want to see the actual AI response and cited URLs, not just a proprietary visibility score. This matters because AI answers and their sources can differ substantially by language and location. onlyaeo.com psentry.com

If you tell me how many languages/countries you operate in and which AI engines matter most (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, etc.), I can narrow this to the best 2–3 platforms and compare their coverage, methodology, API/reporting, and likely enterprise pricing.

If you need granular prompt-level data and an API for your own BI dashboards, I'd also evaluate Indexly. It queries each language separately and exposes prompt, response, citation, and mention data through an API. indexly.ai

If geo accuracy is your biggest concern—e.g. "What does ChatGPT recommend to someone in Germany asking in German versus someone in the US asking in English?"—I'd put Omnia and Asky high on the evaluation list. Omnia says it runs browsers from real locations and supports any country/language; Asky says it varies language, region, login state and prompt phrasing through front-end agents.

One important thing to test in demos

For a multi-language site, you’ll want an AI visibility / GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) platform that can segment by:

• Language (English, German, Japanese, etc.)
• Country/region (US vs UK vs France, etc.)
• AI engine (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, AI Overviews, etc.)
• Prompt set (the questions your customers actually ask)
• Citation source (which URLs/domains AI systems use)

Some platforms worth evaluating:

For a global website, I would prioritize these capabilities:

1. Locale-level prompt tracking

• Example: - “best CRM software” → US English
• “beste CRM Software” → Germany
• “meilleur CRM” → France

AI answers often change by language and location, so a single global score can hide gaps. OnlyAEO

2. Citation URL reporting

You should be able to see:

• Which pages on your site get cited
• Which competitors are cited instead
• Which third-party sites influence AI answers
• AI crawler visibility checks

Useful diagnostics:

• robots.txt / crawler access
• structured data/schema
• entity consistency
• localized content quality
• Regional simulation

A good platform should let you compare:

• US vs EU vs APAC
• English vs local-language prompts
• Different AI engines

My shortlist by use case

• Enterprise / many markets: Rankscale, Omnia, Menra Rankscale.ai Omnia Menra
• SEO team focused on citations: Citations.io, Asky Citations.io Asky
• Testing many countries/languages quickly: Searcherries, Rankscale Searcherries Rankscale.ai

If you have a large multilingual site (for example 10+ languages and multiple country domains/subfolders), I’d evaluate tools using a sample matrix first: 20–50 commercial prompts × each language × each target market, then compare citation share rather than relying on a single “AI visibility score.”

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d shortlist these three:

My pick: Semrush vs. Ahrefs

If your primary requirement is “show me how visible we are in France vs. Germany vs. US, and across different AI models,” I'd start with Semrush. Its Visibility Overview explicitly provides mentions by country, LLM distribution, cited pages and citation metrics. Semrush Semrush

If you want the deepest combination of SEO + AI citation research, I'd lean Ahrefs Brand Radar. It currently analyzes hundreds of millions of search-backed prompts and reports mentions, citations, AI share of voice and cited pages/domains across AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot, with Claude available through custom prompts. Ahrefs Help Center Ahrefs

One important distinction: language support isn't the same as geographic localization. For your use case, I'd specifically verify that a platform lets you define something like:

Spanish query → Spain → ChatGPT
Spanish query → Mexico → ChatGPT
German query → Germany → Google AI Mode
French query → France → Perplexity

rather than simply translating one English prompt into several languages.

What I'd require in your evaluation

For an international site, I'd score platforms on:

• Language: Can you create native-language prompts, rather than translations?
• Country/region: Can you isolate US, UK, Germany, France, Japan, etc.?
• LLM: ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Copilot, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode.
• Citation URL: Does it tell you which exact URL was cited?
• Citation frequency: How often are you cited vs. merely mentioned?
• Competitors: Share of voice by language + market.
• Prompt-level history: Can you see exactly how the answer changed over time?
• Local SERP context: Particularly important for Google AI Overviews/AI Mode.
• Export/API: Essential if you want to combine this with your own international SEO reporting.

For a serious multinational program, I'd trial Semrush and Ahrefs side-by-side first. Ahrefs looks particularly compelling if your existing SEO team already lives in Ahrefs; Semrush has an especially straightforward geographic/LLM breakdown. Ahrefs Semrush

If you tell me which languages/countries you operate in and which AI engines matter most, I can make you a shortlist of 3–5 platforms with a feature-by-feature comparison specifically for multilingual AI visibility and citation tracking.

One important distinction: language support isn't the same as geographic localization. For your use case, I'd specifically verify that a platform lets you define something like:

Spanish query → Spain → ChatGPT
Spanish query → Mexico → ChatGPT
German query → Germany → Google AI Mode
French query → France → Perplexity

For a multi-language, multi-region site, you’ll want an AI visibility platform that can do more than track brand mentions in English. The important capabilities are:

• Run prompts in native languages (not just translated English prompts)
• Segment results by country/region
• Track which URLs/domains AI cites
• Compare visibility across ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, etc.
• Export reports by market/team

Some platforms worth evaluating:

My shortlist by use case

Global enterprise (many countries + many locales)

• Citenso
• Omnia
• Rankscale

SEO/content team trying to improve AI citations

• Maya
• Asky
• Omnia

Agency managing multiple clients

• Omnia is positioned strongly for multi-brand dashboards and reporting. Omnia

What I would test before buying

Run the same 20–50 buyer-intent prompts in each target market:

Example:

• English / US: “best accounting software for startups”
• German / Germany: “beste Buchhaltungssoftware für Startups”
• Japanese / Japan: equivalent native query

Then compare:

1. Mention rate — how often your brand appears
2. Recommendation position — whether AI recommends you vs merely mentions you
3. Citation rate — percentage of answers citing your pages
4. Citation sources — which third-party sites AI trusts instead
5. Regional differences — where your brand disappears

For a genuinely international site, I would avoid tools that only provide a single global “AI visibility score”; AI answers often differ substantially by language and location, so the useful view is a market × language × model matrix. OnlyAEO

If you share your stack (enterprise SEO, ecommerce, SaaS, publisher, etc.) and target languages/countries, I can narrow this to the 2–3 platforms most likely to fit.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d shortlist these platforms:

My recommendation

For your particular use case, I'd put Ahrefs Brand Radar and Profound at the top of the evaluation.

Ahrefs is particularly interesting because its Brand Radar can analyze brands, products and regions, and it tracks AI visibility across Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini and Perplexity. It also identifies the pages/domains being cited. Ahrefs Help Center Ahrefs

Semrush is also unusually useful for international sites: its AI Visibility report provides country-level breakdowns, along with mentions, citations and cited pages. Its underlying database currently covers 289M+ AI queries and is refreshed daily. Semrush

OtterlyAI is a good alternative if you want a purpose-built AI visibility product rather than adding another large SEO suite. It explicitly tracks both brand mentions and website citations across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode and Copilot. Otterly

One important caveat for multilingual sites

Don't evaluate these platforms merely on whether they say they support "multiple languages." You want to test whether they can isolate:

language × country × search engine × prompt × brand/product × cited URL

For example, you should be able to compare:

• English / US
• English / UK
• German / Germany
• French / France
• Spanish / Spain
• Spanish / Mexico
• Japanese / Japan

…and determine that your German site is cited by ChatGPT for German queries in Germany, rather than getting a single global AI visibility score.

This matters because AI-search behavior varies substantially by geography and language; Ahrefs' international AI Overview data, for example, shows substantial differences in AI Overview prevalence across countries and languages. Ahrefs

If you tell me roughly how many languages/countries you operate in (e.g. 8 languages × 25 countries), I can narrow this to the 2–3 platforms that are actually best for that scale and compare their pricing, API/export capabilities, and geographic/language granularity.

language × country × search engine × prompt × brand/product × cited URL

For example, you should be able to compare:

For a multi-language site, you’ll want a platform that can do more than just “AI mentions.” The important capabilities are:

• Prompt tracking by language (e.g., English vs German vs Japanese queries)
• Geo-specific results (AI answers can differ by country)
• Citation extraction (which URLs/domains AI engines rely on)
• Competitor comparison
• Historical trends (visibility gains/losses over time)
• Coverage across major AI engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, AI Overviews)

Some platforms worth evaluating:

My shortlist by use case

If you have many country sites (10+ locales):

• Citenso or Omnia are worth testing because they emphasize multilingual and geo-level tracking. Omnia Citenso

If you are an enterprise SEO/content team:

• Look for platforms with: - API access
• exportable citation datasets
• competitor benchmarking
• integrations with SEO/content workflows

If your priority is “which pages should we improve to get cited?”

• Choose a tool that exposes: - cited URLs
• missing citation opportunities
• competitor sources winning instead of you

Evaluation checklist before buying

Ask vendors:

1. Can you run the same prompt in different languages and countries?

• Example: “best CRM software” in US English vs France French vs Japan Japanese.
• Do you store the full AI answer snapshot, not only a score?

• You’ll want the actual wording and citations.
• Which AI systems are covered?

• ChatGPT
• Gemini
• Claude
• Perplexity
• Google AI Overviews / AI Mode
• Can you separate:

• brand mentioned
• brand recommended
• brand cited
• your own domain cited
• Can you connect results back to your multilingual SEO stack (hreflang, localized content, PR, digital authority)?

For a global site, I would avoid tools that only provide an English “AI visibility score.” The useful signal is usually “Are we cited and recommended in each market where customers ask questions?” Omnia psentry

If multilingual + multi-region AI visibility and citation tracking is the core requirement, I’d shortlist Profound and Scrunch, with Profound as my first choice for a global enterprise site.

1. tryprofound.com — my pick for global scale

Profound explicitly supports 30+ languages and 150+ regions, and lets you analyze visibility, share of voice, citations, competitors and topics across regions. Profound

Its citation tooling goes down to the sources AI engines are actually pulling from, including how often you and competitors are cited. Profound

This matters because AI visibility can be radically different by market. Profound's 2026 research found that European markets frequently have different AI leaders than the US, and that local leaders correlate strongly with citations from country-specific domains. Profound

I'd choose Profound if you have something like:

US / UK / Germany / France / Japan / Australia × English / German / French / Japanese × ChatGPT / Gemini / Perplexity / Google AI Overviews

2. scrunch.com — excellent alternative, especially for citation analysis

Scrunch is particularly compelling if you want to see the exact AI responses and URLs being cited.

It supports prompts in any language and lets you combine language with country-specific personas. It tracks the actual response, citations, domains/URLs, position, sentiment and other visibility metrics. Scrunch Help Center Scrunch

Its citation reporting can be filtered by country, AI platform, topic, persona, prompt and citation owner, and you can analyze citations at either domain or individual URL level. Scrunch

That's useful for answering questions such as:

"Why are we visible in France but not Germany?"

or

"Which German publishers are getting cited by ChatGPT for our category while our German site isn't?"

The important distinction

For a multilingual site, don't evaluate these tools simply on whether they support multiple languages.

You want this matrix:

Language × Country × AI engine × Prompt × Brand visibility × Citation URL

For example:

That is much more actionable than an overall "AI visibility score."

My recommendation: if you're running a serious international SEO/AEO program, demo Profound and Scrunch side-by-side. Profound has the stronger stated geographic/language coverage; Scrunch has particularly nice granularity around actual citations and multilingual prompt/geo analysis. Profound Scrunch Help Center

If you tell me your number of countries/languages and which AI engines matter most, I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 platforms and compare pricing, coverage, APIs, prompt volume, historical data, and citation reporting.

For a multi-language site, you’ll want an AI visibility / GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) platform that can do more than track mentions in English. The key capabilities are:

• Prompt tracking by language (e.g., “best CRM in German” vs “best CRM in English”)
• Geo simulation (US vs Germany vs Japan vs Brazil results)
• Citation/source tracking (which URLs, publications, directories, reviews, etc. AI cites)
• Competitor share of voice
• Coverage across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews, etc.

Some platforms worth evaluating:

My shortlist by use case

Large global website (10+ languages, many markets)

• Menra
• donguri.ai
• Citenso

SEO team adding AI visibility to existing workflows

• Omnia

International B2B / localization-heavy sites

• PSentry

Need detailed citation intelligence

• Citenso, Omnia, Menra

Before choosing, test these scenarios

Ask vendors to show results for:

1. Same prompt, different languages:
   • “best accounting software”
   • English vs French vs Japanese

2. Same language, different regions:
   • US vs UK vs Australia

3. Citation breakdown:
   • “Which URLs caused the AI answer to recommend competitor X instead of us?”

4. Historical tracking:
   • “Did our visibility improve after publishing localized content?”

For a serious multilingual site, I would prioritize citation-level data over a single AI visibility score. A score tells you that you are losing; citations tell you why and what content, PR, reviews, or localization work can fix it. www.useomnia.comdonguri.ai

If you share your approximate scale (number of languages, markets, B2B/B2C, and whether you care about ChatGPT/Gemini/Perplexity specifically), I can narrow this to 2–3 best-fit platforms.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d focus less on generic “AI visibility scores” and more on whether the platform can segment prompt × language × country/market × AI engine, and expose the actual cited URLs/domains.

My shortlist

Current comparisons show Profound, Peec, Otterly, Ahrefs and Semrush all covering multiple major AI engines, but their depth around geographic/prompt segmentation differs. DataDab UX Continuum

For your specific use case, I'd pick Profound or Peec

Profound is the one I'd investigate first if you have dozens of markets/languages and need enterprise-grade reporting. It is positioned around large-scale AI visibility measurement and tracks major answer engines including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Claude and Copilot. DataDab

Peec AI would be my second choice, particularly if you want a more accessible analytics workflow. It has a strong European/global orientation and explicitly supports multi-country tracking on higher tiers. Ayzeo

One particularly important point for a multilingual site: don't just ask whether a vendor supports “multiple languages.” Ask them to demonstrate something like:

English / US → ChatGPT → “best X software” → cited URLs
German / Germany → ChatGPT → same intent → cited URLs
French / France → ChatGPT → same intent → cited URLs
Japanese / Japan → ChatGPT → same intent → cited URLs

You want to see whether the citation set actually changes by locale, not merely whether the UI lets you translate the dashboard.

What I would require in an RFP

For a global site, I'd make these mandatory:

• Country-level localization, not just language selection
• Language-level prompt tracking
• ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude at minimum
• Actual citation URLs, not just “brand mentioned”
• Citation frequency and share of citations
• Competitor citation comparison
• Historical citation trends
• Ability to create separate market views, e.g. US-English, UK-English, DE-German, FR-French
• Localized prompts rather than machine-translated English prompts
• Ability to distinguish your localized URLs from your global/canonical URLs
• Export/API access if you want to combine this with your SEO/analytics warehouse

That's especially important because AI engines can behave differently across countries and languages; research from Peec, for example, has found substantial differences in how translated pages are cited across countries and AI sources. Peec AI

My ranking for your use case: Profound → Peec AI → Ahrefs Brand Radar → Semrush → Otterly.

If you tell me roughly how many languages/countries you have (e.g. 8 languages × 20 countries) and whether you're enterprise or mid-market, I can narrow this down to the 2–3 platforms I'd actually run a trial with.

Peec AI would be my second choice, particularly if you want a more accessible analytics workflow. It has a strong European/global orientation and explicitly supports multi-country tracking on higher tiers. ayzeo.com

One particularly important point for a multilingual site: don't just ask whether a vendor supports “multiple languages.” Ask them to demonstrate something like:

English / US → ChatGPT → “best X software” → cited URLs
German / Germany → ChatGPT → same intent → cited URLs
French / France → ChatGPT → same intent → cited URLs
Japanese / Japan → ChatGPT → same intent → cited URLs

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d shortlist Profound and OtterlyAI first. The key is that you need to track the same prompts in the local language + country, not just translate an English keyword set. Recent Profound research found that query language can materially change which sources AI engines cite. www.tryprofound.com

My recommendation

1. Profound — best if this is a serious global program

Profound lets you break down visibility by region, platform, prompt, topic and citation, and its citation analysis identifies the exact domains and pages being cited. help.tryprofound.com

That makes it particularly useful if you want reporting like:

Germany / German / ChatGPT → visibility 24% → citation share 8%
France / French / ChatGPT → visibility 17% → citation share 3%
US / English / ChatGPT → visibility 41% → citation share 14%

It also lets you compare your citations vs. competitors' citations, which is probably the most actionable metric for a global SEO/GEO team. www.tryprofound.com

Profound

2. OtterlyAI — best if language/country breadth is the priority

Otterly explicitly advertises monitoring across 65+ countries and languages, with citation tracking down to the domain/URL level. otterly.ai It also supports country-specific prompt monitoring and daily tracking. help.otterly.ai

This is attractive for a site with, say, 20+ country/language combinations, where coverage and operational simplicity matter.

OtterlyAI

One important requirement

Don't evaluate these platforms based simply on "does it support French/German/Japanese?"

I'd test whether they can handle this matrix:

Prompt × Language × Country × AI engine × Date

For example, the prompt:

"best accounting software for small businesses"

should ideally be monitored separately as:

• English → US
• English → UK
• German → Germany
• French → France
• Spanish → Spain
• Spanish → Mexico
• Portuguese → Brazil
• Japanese → Japan

Then measure mention/visibility + position + citation URL + citation domain + competitor + sentiment for each cell.

That's important because language itself can change the citation landscape; Profound's 2026 research found substantially different citation patterns when prompts were evaluated in their native languages. www.tryprofound.com

If you tell me roughly how many languages/countries you have (e.g. 8 languages / 25 markets) and whether you're enterprise or SMB, I can narrow this to the best 2–3 platforms and compare their pricing, coverage, APIs, and reporting.

For a multi-language website, you’ll want an AI visibility / GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) platform that can do more than track mentions in English. The important capabilities are:

• Language-level tracking (e.g., English vs German vs Japanese answers)
• Regional simulation (US vs EU vs APAC results)
• Citation source tracking (which URLs/domains AI models rely on)
• Competitor comparison by market
• Multiple AI engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, AI Overviews, etc.)

Some platforms worth evaluating:

My shortlist by use case

Large multinational site (20+ locales)

• Start with Omnia, Citenso, or Emergine.
• Prioritize: country targeting, citation exports, API access, historical trends. www.useomnia.comcitenso.com

SEO/GEO team managing many markets

• Look at Menra or Rankscale for dashboards, competitor tracking, and recurring scans. rankscale.aiwww.menra.ai

B2B company selling internationally

• PSentry is positioned specifically around multilingual/export-market visibility. www.psentry.com

Questions I would ask vendors before buying

1. Can you run the same prompt in native languages?
   • Example: “best accounting software in Germany” should not just be an English prompt translated afterward.

2. Can you separate language vs geography?
   • German user in Germany ≠ German-speaking user in Switzerland.

3. Do you store the full AI response and citations?
   • You need the exact answer, not only a score.

4. Can you track your own URLs being cited?
   • A mention without a citation is less actionable.

5. Can you export data via API?
   • Important if you have hundreds of pages/locales.

For a multilingual enterprise site, I’d generally avoid tools that only provide a single “AI visibility score”; the actionable data is usually which prompts, in which markets, produce which citations from which sources. emergine.aiwww.useomnia.com

If you share your number of locales (e.g., 10 languages vs 100+) and whether your site is B2B, ecommerce, or publishing, I can narrow this to a few best-fit platforms.

Yes. For a multilingual, multi-region site, I’d shortlist these three:

For your particular use case

I'd lean toward Peec AI or Profound, rather than simply adding an AI feature to an SEO platform.

You want to be able to segment something like:

Brand visibility → AI engine → country → language → prompt → competitor → cited URL

That's important because "visibility in ChatGPT" isn't one metric. A site might have excellent visibility in English/US but almost none in German/Germany or Japanese/Japan.

Peec AI is particularly interesting for global brands: current comparisons specifically identify it as strong for multi-country tracking and multilingual content, while Profound is positioned more toward enterprise-grade analytics. ayzeo.com

OtterlyAI is a good lower-cost alternative. It tracks mentions and citations across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Gemini, Copilot and Claude, and lets you analyze different countries. otterly.ai Its citation reporting has also recently been expanded to identify the URLs being used as sources and compare citation winners/losers. otterly.ai

One thing I'd verify before buying

Don't just ask vendors "Do you support multiple languages?"

Ask them to run a pilot with your actual prompts in, say:

• 🇺🇸 English / US
• 🇬🇧 English / UK
• 🇩🇪 German / Germany
• 🇫🇷 French / France
• 🇯🇵 Japanese / Japan
• 🇪🇸 Spanish / Spain or Mexico

And measure:

1. Brand mention rate
2. Citation rate
3. Which of your URLs are cited
4. Which competitor URLs are cited instead
5. Share of voice
6. Position/ranking within the AI answer
7. Sentiment/brand framing
8. Results by language and country
9. Changes over time
10. Ability to export/API the underlying citation data

The last two are especially important: you don't want a dashboard that gives you a single "AI visibility score" without letting you see which prompts produced which citations.

My ranking for a multinational website: Peec AI → Profound → OtterlyAI. If you're an enterprise with hundreds/thousands of markets, products and prompts, I'd put Profound first; if you're a global SEO team wanting a cleaner operational analytics tool, I'd start with Peec. Current 2026 comparisons broadly make the same enterprise-vs-mid-market distinction. ayzeo.com

If you tell me how many languages/countries you operate in and roughly how many prompts/keywords you need to track, I can narrow this down to the best platform and plan for your setup.

For a multi-language, multi-region site, you’ll want an AI visibility / GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) platform that can do more than track brand mentions. The important capabilities are:

• Prompt tracking by language and country
• AI answer capture (not just API estimates)
• Citation URL tracking (which pages/domains AI engines reference)
• Competitor comparison
• Engine coverage (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews, etc.)
• Regional segmentation (e.g., US English vs German vs Japanese results)

Some platforms worth evaluating:

My shortlist for a multilingual global site

Enterprise / large international site

• DemandSphere — strongest if you already run enterprise SEO operations and need integration with existing workflows. www.demandsphere.com
• Omnia — good if the primary goal is understanding “where are we cited in AI answers in each market?” www.useomnia.com

Growth-stage company / marketing team

• Writesonic — useful if you want tracking plus recommendations for content changes. writesonic.com
• Indexly — useful if citation monitoring and competitor benchmarking are priorities. indexly.ai

Very localization-heavy sites

• Asky or Rankscale are worth testing because they emphasize region/language-specific AI results rather than a single global score. rankscale.aiaskylabs.com

Before choosing, I’d test each platform with a matrix like:

• 20–50 commercial prompts per market
• 5–10 languages
• ChatGPT + Gemini + Perplexity + Claude
• Compare:
  • % of answers mentioning you
  • citation share
  • cited URLs
  • competitor citations
  • differences between countries

A common issue with AI visibility tools is that a brand can be highly visible in English US queries but nearly invisible in local-language markets because AI systems pull from different sources. The platform should expose those differences rather than just giving one global score. askylabs.comwww.useomnia.com

If you share your approximate scale (number of languages, regions, and whether you’re B2B/ecommerce/media), I can narrow this to 2–3 best fits.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d narrow the shortlist to Semrush, Profound, Peec AI, and Otterly.ai. The key is not just “does it track ChatGPT?” but whether it can run the same prompt set by language + location + AI engine and show the actual sources/citations.

My pick: Semrush

For your particular requirement, Semrush AI Visibility is probably the strongest starting point.

Its Brand Performance reporting explicitly lets you select domain + location + language, and Semrush says it supports more than 68,000 location-language combinations. Its reporting includes mentions, cited pages, citations, LLM distribution, and geographic breakdowns. www.semrush.com

It also supports 220+ countries and territories for prompt tracking, with daily updates, which is particularly useful if you're operating across many markets. www.semrush.com

For example, you could structure tracking like:

• 🇺🇸 US / English
• 🇬🇧 UK / English
• 🇩🇪 Germany / German
• 🇫🇷 France / French
• 🇯🇵 Japan / Japanese
• 🇧🇷 Brazil / Portuguese
• 🇲🇽 Mexico / Spanish

…and compare visibility, mentions, citations, competitors and sentiment across those markets rather than treating “global AI visibility” as one number.

When I'd choose the others

Profound — I'd investigate this if you're a large enterprise with dozens of markets, brands/products and a dedicated GEO team. It's positioned more toward enterprise-scale AI-search intelligence and governance. Current industry comparisons generally put it in the enterprise tier. mentionsapi.com

Peec AI — attractive if you want a more focused AI-search analytics product rather than buying into a huge traditional SEO suite. It's particularly worth evaluating for prompt-level visibility, competitor comparisons and reporting. ayzeo.com

Otterly.ai — good option if you want to get started quickly and monitor multiple AI engines without an enterprise rollout. It tracks mentions and the links/citations being referenced, and supports geographic filtering. otterly.ai

One important distinction

I'd make sure your evaluation separates:

AI mention tracking

“Does ChatGPT mention our brand?”

from

citation/source tracking

“Which URL/domain did the AI answer use to support its answer?”

and from

regional AI visibility

“Does ChatGPT recommend us when the query is asked from Germany in German versus the US in English?”

The third is where many tools become much less useful. For an international site, language + location + prompt + engine should be first-class dimensions, not something you approximate with separate projects.

If you tell me roughly how many languages/markets you have (e.g. 5 languages / 20 countries vs. 20 languages / 100 countries), I can give you a tighter Semrush vs. Profound vs. Peec comparison, including likely pricing and which one I'd buy.

Yes. For a multilingual, multi-region site, I’d shortlist these three:

My recommendation: Profound vs. Semrush

If your primary question is “Are we being cited by AI, and exactly which sources are driving that?” → Profound.

Profound tracks visibility, share of voice, citations, sentiment, positioning and competitors across answer engines. Its citation tooling lets you drill into the actual URLs being cited, citation share/count, regions, platforms, prompts and topics. help.tryprofound.com

It is particularly interesting for multilingual SEO because Profound has specifically studied how query language changes the citation graph. Its 2026 research analyzed 3.25 billion citations across 7 models and 14 countries, using native-language prompts rather than simply translating English queries. www.tryprofound.com

If you also want traditional SEO, technical SEO and AI visibility in one enterprise stack → Semrush.

Semrush currently offers worldwide/regional AI visibility reporting, with Brand Performance supporting 68,000+ location/language combinations, and Prompt Tracking covering 220+ countries and territories. www.semrush.com It also lets you break visibility down geographically and by LLM, while tracking the pages that get cited. www.semrush.com

For your use case, I'd structure the measurement like this

Don't just track:

“Does ChatGPT mention our brand?”

Track a matrix of:

Language × Country/Region × AI Engine × Prompt × Brand × Competitor × Citation URL

For example:

• 🇺🇸 English / US / ChatGPT
• 🇬🇧 English / UK / ChatGPT
• 🇩🇪 German / Germany / ChatGPT
• 🇫🇷 French / France / Gemini
• 🇪🇸 Spanish / Spain / Google AI
• 🇲🇽 Spanish / Mexico / ChatGPT
• 🇯🇵 Japanese / Japan / Gemini
• 🇧🇷 Portuguese / Brazil / Google AI

That's important because the same translated query can produce substantially different citations. Profound's research found that language itself can materially change which domains AI cites. www.tryprofound.com

What I'd buy

Enterprise/global site: Profound + your existing SEO platform.

If you want one platform: Semrush AI Visibility is probably the safer choice because it combines conventional SEO and AI visibility and has unusually broad geographic/location-language coverage. help.tryprofound.comwww.semrush.comwww.semrush.com

If AI visibility is becoming a dedicated function: I'd choose Profound. Its citation-level data is closer to what I'd want for an actual GEO/AEO program, rather than merely another visibility score.

If you tell me roughly how many countries/languages you operate in and whether you're B2B, ecommerce, or publisher, I can narrow this to the best 2–3 platforms and compare coverage, prompt limits, citation depth, API/reporting, and likely enterprise cost.

For a multi-language site, I’d prioritize platforms that can measure (1) AI mentions/share of voice, (2) citation sources, (3) prompt performance by language, and (4) country/region differences. The strongest options currently are:

My shortlist by use case

Global enterprise (50+ countries/languages)

• DemandSphere AI Search Visibility
• Rankscale AI Visibility Tracker
• Omnia AI Visibility Tracking

SEO/GEO team trying to improve AI citations

• Asky AI Visibility Platform
• Indexly AI Search Visibility

Content team managing many localized sites

• Writesonic AI Visibility Tracker
• Omnia AI Visibility Tracking

For a multilingual site, I’d make sure the platform can answer:

• “When someone asks this question in German vs English vs Japanese, does AI recommend us?”
• “Which URLs are being cited in each market?”
• “Are local competitors replacing us in specific countries?”
• “Is AI citing our translated pages or only our English pages?”
• “Are citations coming from our site, PR coverage, reviews, Wikipedia/Wikidata, directories, or competitors?”

A practical setup is usually:

1. Build a prompt library per market (e.g., 50–200 buyer questions per language).
2. Track ChatGPT, Google AI results, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini.
3. Segment dashboards by country → language → product category → competitor.
4. Export citation domains monthly and compare against your SEO/content roadmap.

For a truly global multilingual site, I’d lean toward Omnia, DemandSphere, or Rankscale for monitoring scale, and Asky or Indexly if your main goal is improving citation acquisition. www.useomnia.com

If you share your number of languages/countries (for example, 10 languages across EU vs 50+ markets), I can narrow this to a better shortlist.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d shortlist Scrunch and Profound first. Both go beyond generic “AI mentions” and let you analyze visibility + citations + competitors + geography, but they have somewhat different strengths.

My pick: Scrunch

For your particular requirement, Scrunch looks like the cleanest fit.

It explicitly supports prompts in any language, records the actual AI response and citations, and lets you associate prompts with country-specific personas. For example, you could track:

• 🇺🇸 English → United States
• 🇬🇧 English → United Kingdom
• 🇩🇪 German → Germany
• 🇫🇷 French → France
• 🇪🇸 Spanish → Spain
• 🇯🇵 Japanese → Japan

You can then see which URLs/domains are being cited in each market and language. Scrunch's documentation specifically says it supports country-level geolocation and multilingual prompts, and its citation reporting can be filtered by country, platform, topic, etc. helpcenter.scrunchai.com

Scrunch multilingual documentation

Where Profound is particularly strong

Profound is worth evaluating if you're running a larger enterprise SEO/AEO program. Its Answer Engine Insights product provides visibility score, share of voice, citations, competitors, sentiment, platforms and regions. It also lets you analyze citation share by region/model. help.tryprofound.com

It currently covers a particularly broad set of answer engines, including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Gemini, Copilot, Grok, Meta AI, Amazon Rufus and DeepSeek. www.tryprofound.com

One caveat: Profound says regional coverage isn't uniform, with strongest coverage currently in the US, UK and selected European markets. help.tryprofound.com

What I'd want to measure

For a global site, don't just ask the platforms for an overall "AI visibility score." Build the measurement around a Language × Country × Platform × Prompt matrix.

For example:

Germany / German / ChatGPT / "beste CRM Software für mittelständische Unternehmen"

Then track:

1. Brand mention rate
2. Position/prominence in the answer
3. Share of voice vs competitors
4. Whether your domain is cited
5. Which specific URL is cited
6. Citation share by competitor
7. Third-party sites that influence the answer
8. Sentiment/recommendation
9. Changes over time
10. Differences between languages for the same commercial intent

That last one is particularly important. AI doesn't necessarily translate your English result into another language and give you the same sources. Profound's 2026 research found meaningful differences in citation behavior when prompts were evaluated in their respective native languages across countries. www.tryprofound.com

Bottom line

If multilingual + international citation tracking is the primary requirement → I'd start with Scrunch.

If you want a broader enterprise AEO platform with demand data, competitive intelligence, citation share, content workflows and AI-crawler analytics → evaluate Profound as well.

I would demo both using your actual markets and languages, rather than relying on their feature lists. The important test is whether they can accurately reproduce the AI experience for, say, French users in France vs French users in Canada, and whether the citation URLs are captured consistently.

If you tell me how many languages/countries you operate in and which AI engines matter most (ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Perplexity, etc.), I can narrow this down and compare Scrunch vs Profound vs other serious platforms for your exact setup.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d shortlist these platforms:

My pick: Ahrefs Brand Radar

For your particular use case, Ahrefs Brand Radar is probably the first one I'd evaluate. It explicitly tracks mentions, citations, impressions and AI Share of Voice, and lets you investigate which pages/domains are being cited. help.ahrefs.com

It also has a large search-backed prompt database rather than relying exclusively on synthetic prompts, which is useful when you want to compare visibility across markets. Ahrefs says Brand Radar can analyze brands, products, regions and authors, and currently covers 405M+ search-backed prompts. help.ahrefs.com

The particularly useful distinction for an international site is that it doesn't just tell you "you're mentioned in AI." It can show which sources AI used/cited, including the difference between pages AI retrieved and pages it actually cited. help.ahrefs.com

If international coverage is your #1 requirement

I'd put Profound and Ahrefs at the top of your evaluation list, then Peec.

The important thing is to test them with your actual matrix, e.g.:

• 🇺🇸 English → US
• 🇬🇧 English → UK
• 🇩🇪 German → Germany
• 🇫🇷 French → France
• 🇪🇸 Spanish → Spain / Mexico
• 🇯🇵 Japanese → Japan
• etc.

Don't assume that a tool's claim of "multilingual" means it genuinely reproduces language + country + search context. That's the part I'd validate in a trial.

What I'd measure

For each language × country × AI engine, I'd want:

1. Brand mention rate
2. Citation rate
3. Your cited URLs
4. Competitors cited instead
5. Share of voice
6. Prompt-level results
7. Citation source/domain
8. Change over time
9. AI engine differences
10. Country/language differences

For example, you might discover:

US/English: 42% visibility
Germany/German: 17%
France/French: 31%

…and, more importantly, that German-language AI answers consistently cite German third-party sites rather than your German pages. That's much more actionable than a single global "AI visibility" score.

One caveat: AI visibility platforms are still measuring a rapidly changing environment, and different products use different prompt sets and methodologies. So for a serious international program, I would run a 2–4 week bake-off of Ahrefs vs. Profound vs. Peec using the same 100–300 prompts per market, rather than choosing based on the dashboard alone. Community comparisons also show meaningful differences between these platforms. www.reddit.com

If you tell me how many languages/countries you cover and roughly how many prompts you want to track, I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 platforms and compare pricing, language/geo support, AI engines, API/export capabilities, and citation tracking.

Yes. If multilingual + multi-region AI visibility and citation tracking is the requirement, I’d shortlist these:

My pick: Semrush

For your specific use case, Semrush is probably the safest starting point. Its AI Visibility Toolkit tracks mentions, cited pages and citations, with geographic breakdowns. Its Prompt Tracking supports 220+ countries and territories, while Brand Performance can be configured around a particular location and language, including very granular geographic locations. www.semrush.com

It also covers major AI surfaces including ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode and Perplexity, and its underlying prompt database currently contains 289M+ prompts/responses across 40+ regional databases. www.semrush.com

Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit

If citations are the #1 priority: Profound

Profound is particularly compelling if your question is less "how often is my brand mentioned?" and more "exactly which URLs are AI engines citing, across which prompts, and how does that compare with competitors?" Its citation tooling shows which answer engines cite your content, how frequently, and which sources competitors are winning. www.tryprofound.com

Profound AI Citation Tracking

A good lighter-weight option: Peec AI

Peec AI tracks visibility, position, sentiment and share of voice, while also showing the third-party sources AI models cite for your category. It's attractive if you want a dedicated AI-visibility product rather than a large traditional SEO suite. peec.ai

Peec AI

One important caveat: don't evaluate these platforms based on English tracking alone. Recent research across 12 languages found that changing the query language can materially change which brands get recommended, meaning an English-only AI visibility report can miss local-market visibility. arxiv.org

If you tell me your languages + target countries + whether you're primarily B2B, ecommerce, or publishing, I can narrow this to the best 2–3 platforms and compare their actual language/region coverage, AI engines, citation depth, and pricing.

Yes. For a multi-language, multi-region site, I’d prioritize platforms that let you control both the prompt language and the search country, while also showing the actual URLs/domains being cited.

My shortlist

1. OtterlyAI — probably my first choice for you.
It explicitly supports prompts in any language, and each prompt can be associated with a country context. It currently supports 65+ countries and tracks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Gemini, Copilot and Claude. Its citation reporting lets you drill into cited domains and filter by country and engine. help.otterly.ai

OtterlyAI

2. Profound — strongest enterprise option.
I'd investigate this if you have lots of markets, hundreds/thousands of prompts, or need sophisticated competitive/enterprise reporting. It's more of an enterprise GEO intelligence platform than a simple rank tracker.

Profound

3. Peec AI — good middle ground.
Worth considering if you want a dedicated AI-search analytics platform rather than adding another capability to an existing SEO suite. It's particularly useful for tracking mentions, citations, competitors and prompt-level performance.

Peec AI

4. Ahrefs Brand Radar — excellent if you're already an Ahrefs customer.
Brand Radar analyzes AI visibility across a very large prompt set and reports share of voice, cited pages/domains and competitors. Its major advantage is connecting AI visibility with Ahrefs' broader SEO/search data. help.ahrefs.com

Ahrefs Brand Radar

For your use case, I'd test this specifically

Don't just ask vendors "Do you support multiple languages?" Ask them to demonstrate:

English + French + German + Spanish, each from US/UK/France/Germany/Spain, with the same commercial-intent prompts, and show me the cited URLs for every AI response.

That's a much better test than a generic feature checklist.

You want to be able to answer things like:

• France / French: Are we cited by ChatGPT?
• Germany / German: Which competitor is getting cited instead?
• US / English: Which pages on our site generate citations?
• UK / English: Does our visibility differ from the US?
• Which third-party domains are AI engines citing about us?
• Which languages/markets have the biggest citation gaps?
• Are we mentioned but not linked/cited?
• Which competitor domains consistently appear where we don't?

If multilingual + regional citation tracking is the core requirement, I'd start with OtterlyAI and Profound, then benchmark Peec against them. Otterly is especially compelling because its documentation explicitly says monitoring works in all languages and its country-level querying is designed to reproduce regional AI-search experiences. help.otterly.ai

If you tell me how many languages/countries you operate in and roughly how many prompts you want to track, I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 platforms and compare pricing, engine coverage, API/reporting, and enterprise features.

For a multi-language site, you’ll want an AI visibility / AIO (AI Optimization) platform that can measure:

• AI answer presence (whether your brand appears in ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, etc.)
• Citation tracking (which pages/domains are cited)
• Prompt coverage by language
• Regional differences (US vs EU vs APAC, etc.)
• Competitor visibility
• Sentiment and brand mentions
• Source attribution and missed opportunities

The strongest options currently are:

For a global multilingual website, I’d shortlist:

1. Enterprise / global brand

• Profound

Best if you need reporting by country, language, product line, and executive dashboards.

2. SEO team managing many locales

• Semrush + an AI visibility specialist tool

Useful if you already manage hreflang, international rankings, content gaps, and technical SEO.

3. AI-search-first monitoring

• Peec AI or Otterly.AI

Better if your main goal is "Are we being mentioned and cited in AI answers?"

Important evaluation questions for your case

Before choosing, check whether the platform supports:

1. Localized prompts
   • Example: “best accounting software in Germany” vs “beste Buchhaltungssoftware Deutschland”
   • Not just translated prompts, but native-language queries.

2. Regional AI endpoints
   • Google AI Overviews availability differs by market.
   • ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity responses can vary by location.

3. Citation-level reporting

You want reports like:

• Prompt: “best CRM for small businesses”
• AI engine: ChatGPT
• Region: France
• Language: French
• Citation: /fr/product-page
• Competitor cited instead: X

4. International URL mapping

Make sure it understands:

• /en-us/
• /de-de/
• /fr-fr/
• subdomains
• country domains (.de, .jp, etc.)

My practical recommendation

For a serious multilingual site, I’d test:

1. Profound (enterprise benchmark)
2. Peec AI (lighter-weight AI visibility)
3. Semrush (international SEO foundation)

Run a 2–4 week comparison using the same prompt set across your top languages and markets. The winner is usually the one that has the best native-language prompt coverage and citation reporting, not necessarily the one with the biggest SEO feature list.

For a multi-language, multi-region site, you’ll want an AI visibility platform that can do more than just “does ChatGPT mention us?” — it should track:

• Prompt performance by language (e.g., English vs German vs Japanese queries)
• Region/country targeting (US vs UK vs France vs Japan, etc.)
• AI engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI features)
• Citation sources (which URLs/domains AI systems rely on)
• Competitor visibility
• Share of voice and sentiment
• Historical trends

Some platforms worth evaluating:

My shortlist for your use case

Enterprise / global website (10+ languages, multiple markets):

1. Asky — strongest match if regional accuracy matters. askylabs.com
2. LLM Visibility — good if your team wants granular prompt + language analysis. llmvisibility.tech

SEO/GEO team adding AI visibility as a new channel:

1. Citations.io — simpler citation monitoring workflow. citations.io
2. RankScope — stronger dashboard-style competitive tracking. rankscope.ai

Evaluation checklist for a multilingual site

Before choosing, test each vendor with the same matrix:

• 20–50 buyer prompts per market
  • “best [category] in Germany”
  • “[brand] alternatives in France”
  • “who offers [service] in Japan”
• Run each prompt in:
  • local language
  • English
  • local spelling/terminology
• Compare:
  • mention rate
  • citation rate
  • cited URLs
  • competitor displacement
  • whether your localized pages are cited (not just your English pages)

A key point: AI visibility often does not transfer cleanly across languages and markets. A brand that performs well in English may have very different citation patterns in other languages, so tools that only test English prompts can give a misleading picture. arxiv.org

If you share your stack (e.g., WordPress/Drupal/Next.js, number of languages, markets, and whether you care more about ChatGPT citations vs Google AI Overviews vs Perplexity), I can narrow this to 2–3 options.

For a multi-language, multi-region site, you’ll want an AI visibility platform that can do more than track “does my brand appear?” The important capabilities are:

• Prompt tracking by language (e.g., English vs German vs Japanese queries)
• Regional simulation (country/location-specific AI answers)
• Citation/source tracking (which URLs get referenced)
• Model coverage (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Copilot, Google AI Overviews)
• Competitor benchmarking by market
• Export/API support for enterprise reporting

A shortlist:

For your specific use case (multi-language site), I would evaluate them this way:

1. Best specialist choice: OtterlyAI

Good fit if your primary question is:

“When someone asks an AI assistant a question in France, Germany, Japan, etc., does it recommend us and cite our pages?”

It tracks AI answers, mentions, and cited domains across AI search experiences. help.otterly.aihelp.otterly.ai

2. Best enterprise stack: Semrush/Ahrefs + AI visibility layer

If you already manage:

• hundreds/thousands of localized pages
• hreflang
• international keyword research
• content operations

then keeping SEO intelligence and adding AI visibility tracking may be easier operationally.

3. For global brands: build a measurement framework

Regardless of tool, I’d set up tracking around:

Markets

• US English
• UK English
• German
• French
• Spanish
• Japanese, etc.

Prompt categories

• “best [product] in [country]”
• “alternatives to [competitor]”
• “companies that provide [service]”
• “where can I buy [product]”

Metrics

• AI mention rate
• citation rate
• cited URL distribution
• competitor share of answers
• local-language visibility gap

One important point: don’t assume English visibility represents other markets. Research has found that AI-generated brand recommendations can change materially depending on the query language, so English-only monitoring can miss local-market visibility issues. arxiv.org

If you have 10+ languages and multiple country domains/subfolders, I’d lean toward an enterprise setup: OtterlyAI (AI citation layer) + your existing SEO platform (Semrush/Ahrefs) + localized prompt sets.

If your main requirement is tracking AI visibility, mentions, and citations across multiple languages and countries, the field narrows quite a bit. Most tools are good at English, but only a handful are built for international brands.

Here's how I'd evaluate them:

Best overall: Peec AI

For multilingual websites, Peec is one of the strongest options because it allows you to:

• Track prompts separately by country and language
• Monitor visibility in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Gemini, Claude (depending on plan)
• See exactly which websites AI systems cite
• Compare competitors by market
• Measure share of voice over time
• Identify the third-party sources influencing AI answers—not just whether you're mentioned peec.ai

This is especially useful if you operate localized sites like:

• example.com/en/
• example.com/fr/
• example.com/de/
• example.com/ja/

or country domains such as:

• example.fr
• example.de
• example.co.jp

Best enterprise: Profound

If you're a global company with many markets, Profound is generally regarded as the most mature enterprise platform.

It offers:

• Geographic prompt testing
• Language-specific monitoring
• Competitive benchmarking
• Citation analysis
• Executive reporting

The tradeoff is cost—many advanced features are available only on enterprise plans. nboundmarketing.comhigoodie.com

If you already invest heavily in SEO

If your organization already relies on Semrush or Ahrefs, their AI visibility products can be a practical extension because they combine traditional SEO data with AI visibility metrics. However, they generally aren't as deep on multilingual prompt tracking or citation intelligence as dedicated AI visibility platforms. nboundmarketing.com

Features I'd insist on for a multilingual site

Regardless of vendor, I would verify that it supports:

• Native-language prompts (not just machine-translated English)
• Country-specific testing (e.g., Germany vs. Austria vs. Switzerland)
• AI engine selection (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI)
• Source/citation tracking
• Prompt libraries organized by language
• Competitor comparisons within each market
• API or export for BI dashboards
• Historical trends by language and country

Many tools advertise "multilingual," but actually just translate prompts. The better platforms execute prompts in the target language and track regional differences in AI responses. nboundmarketing.comhigoodie.com

For a company operating in 10+ countries, my shortlist would be:

1. Profound (largest enterprises)
2. urlPeec AIturn0search5 (best balance of capabilities and usability)
3. Scrunch AI (strong mid-market option)

If you tell me how many languages you support, which regions (e.g. Europe, APAC, LATAM), and whether your site uses ccTLDs (example.fr) or language folders (/fr/, /de/), I can recommend the platform that best fits your setup.

If you're running a multilingual website, you want more than "AI rankings." You need a platform that can answer questions like:

• Is our brand being cited in ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, and other AI assistants?
• Does visibility differ between English, Spanish, German, Japanese, etc.?
• Are citations different by country or region?
• Which pages are AI models using as sources?
• How does AI visibility compare with traditional SEO?

The landscape is evolving quickly, but these are among the strongest options:

1. Profound

One of the most mature enterprise AI search intelligence platforms.

Pros:

• Tracks visibility across multiple AI assistants
• Country- and language-specific monitoring
• Brand and competitor comparisons
• Citation/source analysis
• Enterprise reporting

Best if you operate in 10+ markets and need executive reporting.

2. Scrunch AI

Designed around AI discoverability rather than traditional SEO.

Strengths:

• AI answer monitoring
• Citation analysis
• Content optimization recommendations
• Supports multilingual brands
• Tracks changes over time

Good fit for publishers and SaaS companies with international audiences.

3. Peec AI

Focused on AI search monitoring with an approachable interface.

Useful for:

• Prompt tracking
• Comparing competitors
• Multiple languages
• Multiple AI models

Less enterprise-heavy than Profound.

4. Goodie AI

Emphasizes understanding why AI systems mention (or don't mention) your brand.

Includes:

• Citation monitoring
• Prompt monitoring
• AI visibility dashboards
• International support

5. Semrush AI Toolkit

If you already use Semrush, this can complement your SEO workflows.

Advantages:

• Combines SEO and AI visibility
• Global keyword datasets
• Market segmentation

Its AI monitoring is improving but isn't as specialized as dedicated AI visibility platforms.

What to look for in multilingual tracking

Not every platform truly supports international monitoring. Ask whether it can:

• Run prompts in the target language (not just translate English prompts)
• Simulate users in specific countries
• Compare AI responses across regions
• Track localized citations (e.g., French pages cited in France vs. English pages cited in Canada)
• Detect changes over time by language
• Monitor multiple LLMs separately

Those capabilities matter because AI assistants often produce different answers based on language, region, and available local sources.

If your site spans many countries

For a site with content in 20–50 languages, I'd prioritize:

1. Profound for the broadest enterprise AI visibility capabilities.
2. Scrunch AI for strong multilingual AI optimization and citation insights.
3. Semrush AI Toolkit alongside one of the above, since it adds valuable SEO and regional search data that AI-only tools don't cover.

The combination of an AI visibility platform plus a traditional SEO suite is often more effective than relying on either category alone, since AI assistants still draw heavily from the broader web ecosystem.

If your primary requirement is tracking AI visibility across multiple languages and countries, only a handful of platforms currently do this well. The main differentiators are whether they can vary prompts by language, country/region, and AI model (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI, etc.), and whether they capture citations rather than just mentions.

Here's how the leading platforms compare:

For a multilingual website, I'd prioritize these capabilities:

• Native support for prompts in each language (rather than translating English prompts)
• Country-specific execution (e.g. Spanish in Spain vs. Mexico)
• Ability to compare AI responses across regions
• Tracking which URLs or domains AI models actually cite
• Historical trends by language and market
• Competitor comparisons within each locale

The standout strengths are:

• Waikay currently advertises one of the broadest combinations of 47 languages and 100+ countries, while capturing complete AI responses, citations, and prompt-level results across major AI models. waikay.io
• Goodie has particularly strong segmentation by language, geography, persona, and topic, making it attractive if your organization manages multiple international markets or publishing brands. higoodie.com
• Peec AI is a strong mid-market option that emphasizes prompt tracking, share of voice, sentiment, and identifying which sources AI models cite. peec.ai
• Profound is generally regarded as an enterprise platform with deeper competitive analytics and reporting, though it typically comes with enterprise pricing. waikay.io

For organizations operating internationally, I recommend evaluating whether the platform lets you test prompts like:

• "best CRM for small businesses" in German (Germany)
• the same prompt in French (France)
• the same prompt in Japanese (Japan)

and then compare:

• AI visibility
• citations
• cited pages
• competitors
• changes over time

That kind of market-by-market comparison is much more informative than a single global visibility score.

If you can share:

• how many languages you publish in,
• which countries matter most,
• and whether you're B2B, ecommerce, publisher, or SaaS,

I can narrow the recommendation to the platform that's the best fit for your use case and budget.

If your site operates in multiple languages and you care about AI visibility by country, language, and model (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, AI Overviews, etc.), I'd prioritize platforms that let you segment prompts and results by locale—not just track global mention counts.

Here's how the leading options compare:

For a multilingual website, I'd shortlist:

1. Peec AI (best balance)

• Track prompts in different languages.
• Compare visibility across AI models.
• See which third-party sites AI systems cite.
• Competitor benchmarking.
• Share of Voice by prompt cluster.
• Designed for marketing teams rather than data analysts. peec.ai

2. Profound (best enterprise choice)
If you're running dozens of locales or an international brand:

• Country and language prompt libraries
• Entity tracking
• Citation analysis
• Executive dashboards
• Team collaboration
• Large prompt volumes and governance features make it a common enterprise choice. www.conductor.com

What you should verify before buying

Many tools advertise "multilingual," but ask for a demo of:

• Native-language prompts (Japanese, German, Spanish, Arabic, etc.)
• Country-specific prompts (e.g. Spain vs. Mexico)
• Model-specific tracking (ChatGPT vs Gemini vs Perplexity)
• Source/citation extraction
• Historical trend data
• Competitor comparison by market
• API/export for BI dashboards

These capabilities vary substantially between vendors.

A workflow for global sites

For a site with multiple locales (for example, /en/, /fr/, /de/, /ja/), I'd recommend tracking:

• Language: English, German, French, Spanish, Japanese, etc.
• Region: US, UK, Canada, Germany, France, Japan, Brazil, etc.
• AI model: ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, AI Overviews.
• Prompt intent: informational, comparison, transactional, support.
• Citation source: which URLs and domains are being cited.
• Visibility metrics: mention rate, ranking/position, share of voice, sentiment, and citation frequency.

That combination gives you a much clearer picture than global averages.

If you're an enterprise (100k+ pages, many countries), I'd lean toward Profound or Conductor. If you're a global marketing or SEO team that wants strong multilingual tracking without enterprise complexity, Peec AI is probably the strongest fit today. www.conductor.com

If your primary goal is tracking AI visibility across multiple languages, countries, and AI models, only a handful of platforms currently do this well. Here's how I'd categorize them.

1. Goodie (strongest multilingual capabilities)

Goodie is one of the few vendors that explicitly supports segmenting AI visibility by:

• language
• geography
• AI model
• persona
• topic

It also tracks:

• citations
• domains AI is sourcing from
• brand mentions
• sentiment
• share of voice
• historical trends

For international websites, this is valuable because visibility often differs dramatically between:

• English vs Spanish
• US vs UK
• Germany vs Austria
• Japanese vs English prompts

Goodie's documentation specifically mentions monitoring by geography and language, which is still uncommon. higoodie.com

2. Peec AI

Peec is probably the easiest platform to start with.

It tracks:

• ChatGPT
• Gemini
• Claude
• Perplexity
• Google AI Overviews
• Google AI Mode

It also shows:

• citations
• prompt rankings
• sentiment
• visibility
• share of voice
• citation sources

For multilingual sites, you can organize prompts in different languages and compare results across models. Their platform is more prompt-centric than country-centric but works well for international SEO teams. peec.ai

3. Profound

Profound is generally considered the enterprise option.

It's designed for organizations that need:

• hundreds or thousands of tracked prompts
• competitor monitoring
• executive reporting
• AI crawler intelligence
• deep citation analysis

Many large global brands evaluating GEO/AEO tools shortlist Profound because of its depth, although it tends to come with enterprise pricing. www.tryprofound.com

What I'd recommend based on your use case

If you operate a multilingual website (for example, 20+ country or language versions), I'd prioritize platforms that let you:

• run the same prompt in multiple languages
• specify the market (US, UK, Germany, France, Japan, etc.)
• compare citation sources by region
• identify which local domains AI trusts
• monitor competitors separately in each market

Those capabilities matter because AI models often cite different sources depending on the language and locale. A brand that appears frequently in English responses may have little or no visibility in French or Japanese responses. Repeated measurement across languages and regions is also important because AI responses vary over time and between runs. arxiv.org

My shortlist

• Best enterprise/global: Goodie
• Best balance of features and cost: Peec AI
• Best for large enterprise analytics: Profound

If you can share:

• how many languages you support,
• which countries matter most (e.g. US, UK, DE, FR, JP),
• and whether you're an ecommerce, SaaS, publisher, or marketplace,

I can narrow it down to the platform that best fits your workflow and budget.
