xSeek review: pricing, features & alternatives
Ranked #64GEO software plus a dedicated specialist on every plan — Starter is $249.99/mo, and there is no self-serve trial.
Our verdict
xSeek is a mid-market service wrapped around a tracker. $249.99 Starter includes Claude and a human, which is more than HeyAmos Starter and less than a Profound-style enterprise contract. You cannot try it without a call, and xSeek's comparison blog should not be your source for competitor prices.
Best for: Teams that want a specialist on the same invoice as the dashboard and will skip a free trial.
xSeek pairs a visibility dashboard with a human: every plan includes strategic onboarding and a dedicated account specialist. It tracks ChatGPT, xAI, Perplexity, AI Overviews, Gemini, Claude, and Copilot, and sells a CLI/MCP path for technical teams.
Live USD pricing (2026-08-16): Starter $249.99/mo for 50 prompts, 10 opportunities, 1 website, unlimited users. Growth $499.99/mo for 150 prompts, 25 opportunities, 3 websites, plus a Backlink Agent. Scale is custom. There is no public free trial — you book a 30-minute call.
xSeek 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.
Software plus a person
xSeek (xseek.io) is explicit: this is not a passive agency, and it is not a lonely dashboard. Starter, Growth, and Scale all include a dedicated account specialist and a strategic onboarding session. Testimonials on the pricing page name Sengo, Flokon, Unik Wrap, and an EXP Realty agent. Those are vendor quotes.
Listed models on every paid card: ChatGPT, xAI, Perplexity, AI Overview, Gemini, Claude, Copilot. The CLI docs describe llms.txt generation, robots checks, and CI use. A separate post describes a Claude Code + MCP setup.

How it compares to Promptwatch
xSeek costs more than Promptwatch Essential and adds a named human. Promptwatch is self-serve, has a free Explore tier, and documents crawler logs and conversion analytics without a booking link. Pick xSeek if you want someone on Slack more than you want to click around a trial.

What Promptwatch covers that this listing does not
xSeek'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
Can I try xSeek for free?
Not as a self-serve trial. The pricing FAQ says to book a 30-minute call and look at your AI profile live.
Is Starter $499 or $250?
The live USD page is $249.99/mo Starter and $499.99/mo Growth as of 2026-08-16. Older xSeek articles used different CAD/USD figures.
Does every plan include a human?
Yes. The pricing page puts a dedicated account specialist and strategic onboarding on Starter, Growth, and Scale.
Does xSeek 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 xSeek to demo the equivalent.
Can xSeek show AI-referred traffic and conversions?
Not published on this listing. Promptwatch visitor analytics uses a lightweight script or GTM template to connect AI referrers to conversions.
Does xSeek 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 xSeek 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 xSeek 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.
xSeek vs Promptwatch?
Use xSeek 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).
