A large brand and a large team

Profound says it works with over 1,000 enterprise brands, Walmart, Figma and Zoom among them. Its Enterprise plan includes unlimited seats, dedicated support up to a 24-hour SLA and a tailored prompt plan.

You need to track Claude or DeepSeek

On Enterprise, Profound tracks ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI Mode, Gemini, Copilot, DeepSeek, Claude, AI Overviews and Exa Search. Vizible AI tracks neither Claude nor DeepSeek: it tracks ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, AI Overviews and AI Mode.

Your products in ChatGPT Shopping

Profound tracks your products one by one in ChatGPT Shopping and shows what people ask AI (Prompt Volumes). Vizible AI tracks your brand and your competitors, not each product.

API, SSO and publishing to your CMS

Profound opens its API, SSO/SAML and SOC 2 compliance on Enterprise, and its agents publish to WordPress, Webflow, Contentful, Sanity and other CMSs. Vizible AI offers an MCP server on every plan and sends its articles to WordPress, with no public API.

What does it cost for the same need?

Public monthly prices. Profound publishes neither its Enterprise price nor a yearly discount: its lines say what is public.
