The Problem with Enterprise AEO Tools

Profound is a powerful platform that helped define the Answer Engine Optimization category. However, their go-to-market strategy is focused exclusively on Fortune 500 enterprises.

This leaves startups, D2C brands, and SMBs completely priced out of the AEO revolution. If you try to use Profound, you are forced to book a demo, negotiate annual contracts, and pay thousands of dollars a month just to see how ChatGPT perceives your brand.
