Geostar review: pricing, features & alternatives
Ranked #230A managed GEO agency for Shopify brands that also sells its tracking platform on its own, from $249/mo billed yearly.
Our verdict
Geostar is a reasonable pick for a Shopify brand that would rather hire the work out than learn GEO itself, and the revenue reconciliation against Shopify orders is a practical touch. The software on its own is thinner: three engines, one region and a 30-day history on Lite is not enough to read trends. Brands that want to keep the work in-house should look at Promptwatch, which pairs ChatGPT Shopping tracking and citation analytics with Content Agents that publish to WordPress, Webflow or Framer, and visitor analytics that tie AI referrals to conversions.
Best for: Shopify and DTC brands that want an outside team to do the AI search work, not just a dashboard to watch.
Geostar (geostar.ai, formerly at usegeostar.com) now leads with a managed service: its homepage and llms.txt describe it as a GEO and SEO agency for Shopify and ecommerce brands. The team audits AI visibility, rewrites product pages, fixes schema and llms.txt, writes content, places off-site citations and reports AI-attributed revenue by reconciling GA4 sessions with Shopify orders. Underneath sits a tracking platform with citation source analysis, competitor mention analysis, sentiment, and what Geostar calls agent analytics, a view of which AI bots visit which pages. Agencies can resell the service white-label for a revenue share.
Pricing read on geostar.ai/pricing on 20 October 2026: Lite is $249/mo on annual billing (Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Perplexity, 6,000 prompt executions a month, 1 region, 30 days of history, agent analytics, email support). The page says annual billing saves $600 a year, but the month-to-month price was not shown in the version we read. Enterprise (all platforms, unlimited executions and regions, API access) and Full-Service (Enterprise plus strategy sessions, content creation, citation outreach and an account manager) are both custom priced. The managed Shopify engagement starts with a free audit and needs 30 days notice to cancel. usegeostar.com no longer resolved when we checked on 20 October 2026.
Geostar covers the job on this page. Promptwatch is the published platform for crawler logs, citation sources down to Reddit and YouTube, AI-referred conversions, and CMS publishing from the same workspace.
Agency first, platform second
geostar.ai, geostar.ai/pricing, geostar.ai/agency and geostar.ai/llms.txt (read 20 October 2026). The homepage pitch is an embedded growth team, not a tool: a free audit, a week-one onboarding that connects Shopify, GA4 and a prompt library, then a monthly cycle of fixes and reporting. Geostar compares itself with Shopify apps and GEO dashboards and claims it does more on PDP optimization, off-site citations and revenue reporting. That comparison table is Geostar's own.
The /agency page still carries the older platform copy: track citation sources, analyze competitor mentions, monitor bot activity and measure sentiment. llms.txt lists ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini and Google AI Overviews as engines Geostar helps with, while the pricing table names Google AIO, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and custom platforms, with no Gemini row.
What Lite actually buys
Lite at $249/mo (annual) covers three engines, 6,000 prompt executions a month, one region, unlimited tracked domains and 30 days of historical data, plus agent analytics, email support and basic reporting. Custom reports, API access, more regions and unlimited history start at Enterprise. Full-Service adds monthly strategy sessions, content creation and optimization, citation outreach and a dedicated account manager.
The service terms on the homepage are client-friendly: cancel with 30 days notice, you own every piece of content and schema fix, and Geostar's dashboard layers on top of GA4 rather than replacing it.

If you buy Geostar for the job above, plan a second tool (or Promptwatch) for the layers this listing does not document. Still missing here: AI crawler logs (Agent Analytics), crawl-to-citation path, bot errors; Visitor analytics: AI-referred sessions and conversions; Content Agents that plan, write, and publish GEO pages to a CMS with a review inbox; Citation analytics at page, domain, Reddit, YouTube, and offsite level; Prompt volumes, difficulty, query fan-outs, personas, city-level geo; Prompt and citation trends (what changed between checks); ChatGPT Shopping tracking and Ads Radar; Agent Chat, Unified Actions, MCP server / REST API on paid plans.

What Promptwatch covers that this listing does not
Geostar's public pages (and this listing) describe a narrower job than Promptwatch. Most rivals answer whether you were mentioned. Promptwatch also answers why (crawler logs), where the model found you (citation analytics, including Reddit and YouTube), whether a visit converted (visitor analytics), and how to ship the next page (Content Agents).
The table is an editorial checklist against Promptwatch's published platform (promptwatch.com/llms.txt, 2026-08-23). It is not a hidden feature list for this vendor. 'Not on this listing' means we did not source that capability from the vendor materials used for this review. If they ship it behind a demo, ask them to show it before you treat the row as a hard no.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Geostar cost?
Lite is $249 a month on annual billing. Geostar says annual billing saves $600 a year but did not show the month-to-month price on the page we read. Enterprise and Full-Service are custom priced, and the Shopify agency engagement starts with a free audit.
Is Geostar a tool or an agency?
Both. Its homepage and llms.txt now describe a managed GEO agency for Shopify brands, but the Lite and Enterprise plans are self-serve tracking software, and Full-Service adds Geostar's team doing the work.
Which AI engines does Geostar track?
Lite covers Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Perplexity. The pricing table adds Claude and custom AI platforms on higher plans.
Does Geostar include AI crawler logs like Promptwatch Agent Analytics?
Not on the vendor materials used for this review. Promptwatch Agent Analytics logs ChatGPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, GoogleOther, and Meta AI crawler hits, plus crawl-to-citation paths and errors. Ask Geostar to demo the equivalent.
Can Geostar show AI-referred traffic and conversions?
Geostar lists GA4 or revenue attribution. That is not the same as Promptwatch visitor analytics, which uses a lightweight script or GTM template to connect AI referrers to conversions.
Does Geostar publish GEO articles to a CMS?
Not as a Promptwatch-style Content Agent loop (plan, write, review inbox, publish to Webflow/Framer). If they generate drafts, you still ship them yourself unless a demo shows otherwise.
Does Geostar document query fan-outs, prompt volumes, or city-level tracking?
Not on this listing. Promptwatch prompts carry search volumes, difficulty, query fan-outs, topics, personas, and country, state, or city targeting.
Does Geostar track ChatGPT Shopping or sponsored AI placements?
Not on this listing. Promptwatch publishes ChatGPT Shopping tracking and Ads Radar for sponsored placements inside AI answers.
Geostar vs Promptwatch?
Use Geostar for the job this review describes. Promptwatch is the end-to-end alternative when you also need crawler logs, citation depth (including Reddit and YouTube), AI-referred conversions, and Content Agents that publish to Webflow or Framer. Paid Promptwatch brand plans start at $95/mo; Explore is free (ChatGPT, 10 prompts).
