How to read the plans
Three units define every plan, and they are worth thirty seconds before you compare tiers:
- An audit: one full visibility check: Cited fires your buyer-intent prompts at the AI engines on your plan, stores every answer, and recalculates your share of voice, citations and endorsement strength from that evidence
- A prompt check: a single question asked to a single engine inside an audit, so a 20-prompt audit across two engines is 40 prompt checks
- An AI-drafted asset: a ready-to-publish output generated from your gaps: comparison pages, FAQs, content briefs and full drafts, each written against the sources AI currently cites instead of you
Choosing is mostly a question of cadence and depth. If you want a steady weekly read on one brand with the two engines most buyers use, Starter covers it. If you are running visibility as an ongoing program, with competitive alerts, more prompt depth per audit and enough asset volume to actually publish the fixes, Pro is built for that. Agencies running client rosters get pooled audits, per-client reports and roster-scoped projects on Agency Pro, and it grows with scale packs as the roster does.
Two things to know before you pick. First, every plan measures the same way: fixed prompt sets, stored answers, apple-to-apple trend lines, so upgrading changes your capacity, never your methodology. Second, the free audit is a real audit, not a teaser: same engines, same evidence, same scoring, because the fastest way to understand Cited is to see your own numbers.
Which plan fits your team
Plans map to team shape more than company size. The quickest way to choose is to find the row that sounds like your week:
- Free: you have heard buyers mention AI answers and want proof before you commit budget. Two full audits show where you stand against competitors, with the cited evidence behind every answer
- Starter: one person owns marketing and needs a steady read on one brand. Three audits a month, twenty prompts per audit and weekly auto-audits keep the trend moving without setup work
- Pro: a team runs visibility as an ongoing program. Two projects, deeper prompt sets, Competitive Snapshots, threat alerts on tracked rivals and a Business Impact Report on your cadence, with Slack delivery so nobody has to watch a dashboard
- Agency Pro: you report to clients. Four roster projects with pooled audits and per-client Executive Brand Reports, growing to 44 client projects with stackable scale packs
- Enterprise: you operate across markets, languages or product lines. Coverage is scoped to each, engines are added to match where your buyers actually ask, and generated content can carry your brand's tone of voice
- Whitelabel & Custom: your agency's name goes on the deliverable. Self-branded reports and share links, unlimited roster-scoped projects, priced per client roster
Two guardrails make the choice low-stakes. Downgrading never deletes data: projects beyond the new limit go read-only and reactivate the moment you upgrade again. And every paid plan can audit in any of 91 prompt languages, one per project, so international coverage is a project decision, not a plan decision.
If you are torn between two tiers, start lower. The methodology is identical on every plan, fixed prompt sets and stored answers throughout, so the trend line you build on Starter carries over untouched when Pro's competitive layer starts earning its keep.
Frequently Asked Questions
Free and Starter track ChatGPT and Perplexity deeply, Pro adds Claude, and Enterprise covers 10+ engines: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Gemini standard, plus Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Grok, Kimi, GLM or any other engine on request. New engines are included as they ship.
Yes, both, on Enterprise on request. They often cite different sources for the same query, so Cited tracks them as separate engines: where you appear, which pages get cited, and where competitors win on each.
A project is one tracked setup: a domain, its buying questions and its competitor list. Pro includes 2, and you can point both at the same domain to track separate lines of business, each with its own prompts, competitors and trend. Monthly audits are shared across projects.
Yes, on every paid plan: pick one of 91 prompt languages per project and the buying questions are generated natively in it, the way your buyers type them. One language per project keeps trends clean; a second project on the same domain covers a second language. Free projects audit in English.
Yes, two. Agency Pro is self-serve at $799/mo ($665/mo billed annually) with 4 client projects, 24 audits and 30 assets a month, growing to 44 clients with Scale Packs. Whitelabel & Custom adds self-branded reports plus unlimited projects and seats, priced per roster: use Let's talk and we reply within one business day.
Yes, on Enterprise and Whitelabel & Custom. Give Cited up to 3 brand documents per project and it learns your voice, then writes every brief and draft in it, grounded in your audit evidence so nothing is invented in your name. Agencies load each client's documents into that client's project.
No. Every idea, brief and draft is checked against your live pages, the pages AI already cites for you, and your earlier drafts before anything is written. Close calls become updates that strengthen the existing page instead, and every asset shows the verdict.
One fresh collection of AI answers across your tracked prompts. Fresh answers are collected daily, and re-checking within the same day never counts against your monthly allowance.
Yes, freely: review, swap, add your own, or pull in prompts you spot behind real citations before any run. Keep a stable set for clean trend lines, or rotate it for breadth.
Yes. Cancel or downgrade whenever you want, you keep full access through the end of your billing period, and we don't charge you again after that. No refunds for unused time, same as most subscriptions.
No. Digests, reports and alerts go to the account owner only; teammates see everything live in the dashboard. The only email a teammate ever receives is their one-time invite.
Nothing is deleted. Projects beyond your new plan's limit go read-only, not gone, reactivate them by upgrading again, whenever that is.
Yes, anytime, from your account's billing settings, handled the same way as any other plan change.
Competitive Snapshot and asset allowances reset monthly and don't roll over, they're sized for steady use, not banking up.
Yes, annual is roughly 2 months free compared to paying monthly, on both Starter and Pro.
Prices are exclusive of tax ("$95 + taxes", not one all-in number) because customers are global. India-billing customers see 18% GST added at checkout; customers billing from elsewhere generally won't see a tax line added.
