§03 / WHERE PROFOUND WINS

Honest list of what Profound does well or has that we don't.

○More engines (9 vs our 5)
○AI bot crawl analytics — we don't track AI bot traffic to your site yet
○Autonomous publishing agents
○Enterprise integrations (Salesforce, etc.)

§04 / WHERE CABBGE WINS

Where we beat them, in concrete terms.

●Half the price at every comparable tier ($50 vs $99 for entry; $200 vs $399 for mid)
●All 5 engines (ChatGPT + Gemini + Perplexity + Claude + Grok) included from $50 — Profound gates engines behind tier upgrades
●Self-serve from signup to first scan — no sales call
●Free public grader with permanent shareable result page
●Off-domain coverage audit (Wikipedia / Wikidata / G2 / Trustpilot / Reddit) — Profound doesn't have it

§05 / THEIR STRENGTHS

What Profound markets, in their own framing.

·9 engines monitored: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Grok, Copilot, Meta AI, DeepSeek, AI Overviews
·Query Fanout feature — exposes the actual sub-queries an engine fans out to
·AI bot crawl analytics — tracks GPTBot/ClaudeBot/PerplexityBot hits to your site
·Autonomous content agents that draft and publish
·Enterprise customers, well-funded

§06 / THEIR WEAKNESSES

Public, observable shortcomings — verifiable on their site.

·Starter is $99/mo and only includes ChatGPT — Gemini / Perplexity / Copilot are higher tiers
·Real-feature tier starts at $399/mo (Growth)
·Enterprise pricing $2,000–$5,000+/mo at the top
·Sales-led for the tiers that matter; not truly self-serve
·Pricing assumes you already have a marketing team to act on the reports

§07 / WHICH TO PICK

Pick Profound if…

·You need 9-engine coverage and have $400+/mo to spend
·You want autonomous agents handling publishing
·You're enterprise and need Salesforce / GA4 integration
·AI bot crawl analytics is a non-negotiable feature for you

Pick Cabbge if…

·You're under 50 employees or bootstrapped
·$50–$200/mo is your real budget
·You want to self-serve everything — no sales calls, no demo gates
·You'd rather have schema + FAQ + article artifacts generated for you than a report telling you to write them
