Where the two differ

Who ships the fixes

Profound's Agents and Workflows draft and publish AEO content, operated by your team. AirPulse's team ships the remediation with yours (rendering, schema, sitemaps, llms.txt) and re-audits every change live.

Agent analytics

Profound's Agent Analytics is the closest product to Agent Pulse. AirPulse ties crawler and agent log data to the remediation queue, so a section GPTBot stops fetching becomes a task, a fix and a re-audit.

Pricing

Profound (checked 2026-09-09): Starter $99/month (ChatGPT only, 50 prompts, one seat), Growth $399/month (three engines, 100 prompts, three seats), billed yearly; Enterprise custom. AirPulse: Starter $89/month (two engines, 25 prompts), Growth $179/month (three engines, 50 prompts), 14-day free trial.
