Search Atlas

The following is from the current Search Atlas pricing page, checked September 29, 2026. The page shows monthly prices and annual totals, a 7-day trial, and free onboarding. Starter has no LLM Visibility projects or queries; Growth is the first plan with AI Visibility. Confirm taxes, cancellation, credit exhaustion, overages, and account-level access at checkout.

Plan	Price	Selected published limits
Starter	$79/month ($950 billed annually)	50,000 universal credits/month, 1 seat, 1 project, 2,000 tracked keywords, 50,000 audit pages, and 0 LLM Visibility projects/queries
Growth	$159/month ($1,910 billed annually)	120,000 universal credits/month, 3 seats, 2 projects, 3,500 tracked keywords, 100,000 audit pages, 2 LLM Visibility projects, 100 queries, ChatGPT/Gemini/Google AI Mode
Pro	$319/month ($3,828 billed annually)	400,000 universal credits/month, 5 seats, 4 projects, 6,000 tracked keywords, 10,000,000 audit pages, 4 LLM Visibility projects, 100 queries, five AI platforms with Copilot and Perplexity
Agency	From $999/month ($11,988 billed annually)	1,000,000+ universal credits/month, 10 seats, 10 projects, 50,000 tracked keywords, 1,000,000 LLM Visibility projects, 250 queries, client portals and branded dashboards

The page also lists separate quotas for AI SEO tasks, AI articles, content pages, audits, rank tracking, and site crawls. These are not interchangeable with LLM visibility credits. A team should estimate cost using:

monthly LLM credits = prompts × platforms × refreshes × reporting runs

For example, expanding a 100-prompt panel from three to five platforms increases the measurement budget even if the prompt text stays unchanged. The formula is a planning model, not a promise about every overage rule.

Recurring positive themes

The live G2 listing shows 4.6/5 from 163 reviews, while Capterra’s current page shows a broader product sample with visible praise and criticism. Positive themes include breadth, OTTO automation, support, and organized AI-search comparisons. Concerns include platform complexity, fast-changing releases, credit systems, support experiences, and a visible account describing LLM-visibility restriction or repricing. Some Capterra complaints concern Publication.Media services rather than the core SEO product, so they should not be generalized. Neither source independently validates the current LLM Visibility module’s accuracy or business impact. The strongest supported positive remains workflow breadth: Search Atlas places SEO execution, content, reporting, and LLM visibility in one platform.

Recurring concerns and tradeoffs

• Independent evidence specific to the current LLM Visibility module is limited; G2 and Capterra reviews cover the broader product.
• The current pricing surface makes Growth the first plan with LLM Visibility, but feature rollout and credit treatment still need account-level verification.
• Broad bundles can make feature and credit comparisons difficult.
• Platform names do not explain the sampling method or model version.
• Vendor-selected results should not be treated as causal proof of business impact.

How much should buyers trust the evidence?

Trust official pages for the displayed price, quota, and feature claims, while remembering that they describe Search Atlas’s own offering. Treat the G2 rating as a directional usability signal, not proof of GEO effectiveness; the review sample is for the broader platform and the rating may change. Treat Capterra’s older pricing/feedback context as corroboration and a warning to verify current access. Request a trial, raw exports, and a reproducible prompt run.

AICiteKit interpretation

Search Atlas is strongest as an integrated SEO execution and reporting platform with an LLM visibility layer. Evidence is currently stronger for the workflow and packaging than for the effectiveness of its GEO module.

What to verify during a trial or demo

1. Does the selected plan actually permit LLM visibility runs, and how are credits deducted?
2. Can the team export full answers, cited URLs, timestamps, prompts, platform, model, country, and language?
3. Are Copilot and Perplexity excluded below Pro, and what exact surfaces are used?
4. Can OTTO show the proposed diff, approval state, deployment method, and rollback record?
5. Which changes are applied through the pixel, CMS, API, or server, and what happens if the connection is removed?
6. Can a fixed prompt panel be rerun without silently changing the denominator?
7. Can LLM observations be reported separately from GSC, GA4, crawl, ranking, and conversion data?
8. What are overage, retention, rate-limit, API, and cancellation terms?

Last reviewed: September 29, 2026 Evidence confidence: Medium for public pricing, workflow, and stated platform limits; low-medium for independent user feedback and GEO outcome effectiveness. AICiteKit interpretation: Buy for integrated agency SEO execution with an LLM visibility layer, not for an unsupported promise of AI-attributed growth.
