Comparison
AIV Index vs Peec AI.
Peec AI’s pricing page is headed “Pricing for Brands”, says it is “trusted by 3000+ brands and agencies”, and pitches Starter “for SEO and content managers getting started with AI Search visibility”. Below is how the two actually differ — including the places Peec AI is the better buy.
How this was sourced. Every claim about Peec AI below comes from Peec AI’s own live pages, read on 21 September 2026 — not from third-party “best tools” round-ups, because in this category almost all of those are published by a competing vendor ranking itself first. Where Peec AI does not publish something, it says not published rather than being guessed at.

Where Peec AI is the better choice
- Daily tracking on every paid tier. Our sweeps are monthly by default, so Peec gives you a much higher sampling frequency.
- Unlimited users on every tier — if a whole marketing team needs logins, that is cheaper with them.
- Google AI Mode and AI Overviews tracked on every tier, plus crawl-log and AI-referral analytics through CDN integrations (Vercel, Cloudflare, AWS, Akamai and others).
Where AIV Index is the better choice
- Priced in rands. For an SA business, a $95–$495 monthly card charge (about $125 with a fourth model added on Starter, at annual billing) carries FX cost and volatility that R650–R3,500 does not.
- Claude and Perplexity in the panel at every price. On Peec, Claude is Enterprise-only and Perplexity is an add-on; our four engines are the same on every tier.
- SA-specific prompt design and competitor sets, plus the SA AI Visibility Index as published reference data, with every raw answer and cited source readable.
Pick Peec AI if
You want daily tracking, a large team on one seat price, or Google AI Mode and AI Overviews tracked — and USD billing is not an issue for you.
Pick AIV Index if
You are measuring an SA market, you want rand pricing, you want Claude and Perplexity without an enterprise contract, and you want to read the actual answers and sources behind the number.
Before you buy either, check something free: whether the AI crawlers can reach your site at all. If they are blocked at the server, no tracker will change the answer.
