The Shortlist

Where each tool earns its place.

3 non-overlapping options evaluated for this exact job
01 · Audit the AI narrative & tone

Peec AI

From $95/moStarter · $95/mo ($80/mo billed annually)
Ideal Retainer / Team Fit:

How do ChatGPT and Perplexity describe our brand versus competitors?

Mentions alone can hide reputational drift. Peec tracks qualitative sentiment and competitor head-to-heads across consistent buyer prompts. When an LLM calls your product “legacy” while recommending a rival for enterprise, Peec captures the exact quote, model discrepancy, and sentiment score so PR can align the brand narrative.

PR Team Output

Narrative & Sentiment Matrix: extracts exact qualitative wording, sentiment shifts, and competitor positioning for Messaging Gap Briefs.

Operational Watch-out

Peec pinpoints where your positioning is mischaracterized; fixing it requires updating external publications and owned press releases.

Evaluation Protocol
Test in your trial: Run 10 buyer-intent prompts (e.g., “Drawbacks of [Brand]” vs competitors). Document the exact adjectives and draft one messaging realignment brief.

02 · Connect upstream web buzz to AI answers

Brand24

From $199/moIndividual · $199/mo annual ($249/mo monthly) + AI add-on
Ideal Retainer / Team Fit:

Is an AI narrative shift an isolated hallucination or an active PR crisis?

AI answers don’t exist in a vacuum—they ingest web sentiment and recent controversy. Brand24 bridges traditional social listening with AI search monitoring. When an AI answer turns negative, PR can immediately check if it stems from a viral Reddit thread, a customer review storm, or a fresh news headline, allowing intervention before the narrative hardens.

PR Team Output

Crisis Correlation Alert: connects public sentiment spikes on forums and news to AI answer changes before narratives harden.

Operational Watch-out

Social listening sentiment reflects public chatter, which takes time to feed into or shift model weights.

Evaluation Protocol
Test in your trial: Correlate a recent customer sentiment spike with your weekly AI answer logs. Verify whether the negative discussion surfaced in answer engine citations.

03 · Trace the media sources driving citations

Scrunch AI

$250/moCore plan · $250/mo flat (7-day trial)
Ideal Retainer / Team Fit:

Which specific journalists, reviews, and press outlets shape the answer?

LLMs don’t invent facts; they synthesize specific URLs. Scrunch breaks down the exact media outlets, reviews, and external articles cited by Perplexity and ChatGPT. Instead of blind press release blasts, your PR team gets a verified list of high-citation editorial sources to pitch for corrections, updated coverage, or thought-leadership pieces.

PR Team Output

Earned Media Pitch List: identifies the top authoritative publications, reviews, and articles cited by answer engines.

Operational Watch-out

A cited press article is a relationship lead to pitch or update; it is not proof of total campaign reach.

Evaluation Protocol
Test in your trial: Identify the top 3 external publications cited in your category. Assign your team to pitch updated commentary or factual corrections to those specific outlets.
