Switch to GeoGen if

  • You need more than 3 LLMs on a starter budget.
  • You want an API, CLI and MCP server.
  • You want workspaces with separate billing instead of site-count tiers.
  • You track hundreds of prompts and want to avoid per-tier caps of 25 to 100.

Stay with Mentions.so if

  • You use the white-labelled Agency plan with a custom domain.
  • Pitch workspaces and the Insights Board are part of your workflow.
  • The AI traffic and crawler analytics are central to your reporting.

What is Mentions.so?

Mentions.so is a tracker that monitors how brands appear in AI answers, compares them with competitors and analyses sentiment per model. It adds AI traffic analytics, crawler analytics, regional responses across eight locales and an AI agent for plain-English questions. Plans scale by prompts and sites.

Where Mentions.so shines

Daily prompt updates and unlimited seats are on all four plans. The top Agency plan stands out: 300 prompts, unlimited sites, a pitch workspace for prospects, a custom domain and white labelling.

The Insights Board turns recommendations into a Kanban-style workflow. Crawler analytics show when AI bots visit and where citation volume is changing. Pro and above cover all LLMs, including Llama, which several rivals skip.

Where buyers look elsewhere

Starter is thin: 25 prompts and 3 LLMs. Even Business tops out at 100 prompts, so a team with hundreds of prompts has to jump to the $399 Agency plan.

The site itself raises questions. It advertises Mentions 2.0 as a private beta and contains leftover developer text on the page, which suggests the product and pricing may change. Yearly prices are not published, only a 16 percent discount, so the exact annual bill is unknown.

Mentions.so vs GeoGen: the real differences

  • Engines. GeoGen supports 16, including Grok 4.3, Claude Sonnet 4.6 and Opus 4.8, Gemini, Perplexity and Copilot; plan tiers choose 2 to 7 of them. Mentions.so supports 8 and includes Llama, which GeoGen does not track.
  • White label. Mentions.so Agency includes a custom domain and white labelling. GeoGen only confirms agencies can present the dashboard with their own logo.
  • Pricing structure. Mentions.so scales by sites and prompts. GeoGen scales by brands: Standard is EUR 75 (EUR 60 yearly) for 2 brands and 50 prompts, Growth EUR 239 (EUR 199) for 5 brands and 150 prompts.
  • Developers. GeoGen documents a REST API with 30+ endpoints, a CLI and an MCP server.
  • Data. GeoGen records query fan-outs for Grok and Perplexity.

Before you decide

Check the beta. Mentions 2.0 is described as a private beta, so ask whether the plan you are buying includes it, whether pricing changes at launch, and what migration looks like for existing customers. Check the prompt cap against your list too: 25, 50, 100 and 300 are small enough that many agencies will land on the Agency plan within a few clients. If white label with a custom domain is the draw, request a demo of the exact client-facing view before you commit, and compare it with how your clients actually consume reports today.

It also helps to confirm how Llama coverage is handled. Mentions.so lists Llama among its engines, which matters if open-weight models are part of your audience research. GeoGen does not track Llama or Meta AI, so that gap alone can decide the comparison for some buyers.

How to switch

  1. Export prompts and competitor lists from Mentions.so.
  2. Decide whether you need Llama coverage. If yes, GeoGen will not cover it.
  3. Choose a GeoGen plan and add prompts with language and location.
  4. Install the tracking script for AI crawler and referral visits.
  5. Agencies should check white-label needs with GeoGen before moving client dashboards.
