Disclosure: VisibilityOS is published by the team that builds Cituna, one of the tools discussed here. Read this as our view, not a neutral review.

For Claude checked every day on the entry plan, next to ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Grok, Google AI Overviews and Google AI Mode and with Search Console included, the best Claude rank tracker is Cituna at $39 a month, the lowest price among the twelve tools here that is not metered in credits and includes Claude at no extra cost. On credits, Keyword.com ($9.80) and Rankscale ($20) let you run a few Claude checks for less; Geoptie ($49) lets you pick Claude as one of four engines; Mangools ($49) checks 500 prompts weekly; and Promptwatch ($95), Rankability ($97) and Trakkr ($100) include Claude on plans that cost more than twice as much.

Fewer trackers cover Claude than ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini or Google's AI surfaces. On many plans it is missing, sold as an add-on, or held back for Enterprise, and on Keyword.com and Rankscale a Claude check costs eight to twelve times a ChatGPT one (on Rankshift, two and a half times most engines). Each entry below says where Claude sits on the plan and what it really costs to run. Facts were read from each vendor's pages on 28 or 29 September 2026, and Rankability's on 16 October 2026.

Cituna asks Claude your buyers' questions every day and keeps each answer with the brands named, your position and the pages cited, next to six other engines and your Search Console data. Start tracking your brand in Claude with Cituna, from $39 a month.

Picks by need

  • Claude daily with six other engines and Search Console at one flat price: Cituna, $39.
  • A few Claude checks a month for under $10: Keyword.com, credit-based.
  • Claude on a schedule you choose, with Grok available too: Rankscale, $20.
  • Claude as one of four engines you pick, across many markets: Geoptie, $49.
  • Hundreds of Claude prompts, checked weekly: Mangools, $49.
  • Claude added to a plan that already covers Copilot: Otterly.AI, $58 with the add-on.
  • Claude and Copilot with API and MCP for unlimited seats: Rankshift, $92 in credits.
  • Claude with Search Console, API and MCP on the entry plan: Promptwatch, $95.

  • Claude and Grok on every prompt, daily, with no engine picking: Trakkr, $100.

How we chose these Claude trackers

A tool made the list when its own pages showed three things: Claude by name among the engines it checks, a published price at which a brand can track Claude (included, as a chosen engine, or as a priced add-on), and a published check frequency. Tools that missed one of the three are listed near the end with the reason.

The twelve are ordered by the lowest published monthly price at which Claude is tracked, add-ons counted. Month-to-month rates are used where shown, euro prices sit where the vendor's dollar figure or the exchange rate puts them, and ties go alphabetically. Vendor facts were read on 28 or 29 September 2026, except Rankability's tracker page, read on 16 October 2026. Citation figures come from Cituna's scans of seven engines in the 30 days to 22 September 2026, published in what Claude cites.

What we weighed for Claude in particular:

  • Is Claude on the plan, or behind a door? "Tracks Claude" on a home page can mean a $29 add-on or a sales call.
  • What does one Claude check cost? On credit plans Claude is priced far above other engines, so a credit total says little until you divide it.
  • Does the check use web search? Anthropic says that when Claude uses the web it gives direct citations; an answer written without a search has none to give. Ask each vendor whether its Claude checks run with search on, because an answer from training data alone will cite nothing.

What makes Claude different to track

Claude reads more sources than most engines but spreads them thin. In Cituna's scans of questions about AI visibility tools, its 552 answers in the 30 days to 22 September 2026 carried 7.9 third-party citations each, second only to Perplexity, and its ten most-cited publisher sites took 9.5% of those citations, against 15.2% for the other six engines. No single roundup decides what Claude says, so a tracker has to store every source, not only your own links.

Claude also leans on vendors' own sites. The five hosts it cited most in that window were aiclicks.io (171 citations), llmpulse.ai (170), rankability.com (116), geoptie.com (104) and getmint.ai (89), all tools in this category, and four of them appear on this list. Among other sites it gave articles and reference pages a larger share than any other engine, and it cited no Reddit threads at all. How to get cited by Claude works through what that means for your pages.

And Claude can answer the wrong question. For a prompt asking which tracker covers ChatGPT, Claude and Grok without enterprise pricing, it cited seven AI-text detectors. Phrase tracked prompts carefully, and read the sources a tracker stores, not only the mention count.

The 12 Claude rank trackers, by price

1. Keyword.com (best for a few Claude checks under $10)

Keyword.com's AI Visibility plan costs $9.80 a month, or $7.83 billed annually, for 20 credits (read 28 September 2026). Claude is on that plan, but a Claude check uses 3 credits where ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI surfaces use 0.25. So the entry plan buys about six Claude checks a month: enough to look at a handful of prompts once, not to track them. Grok is not offered. Search Console, GA4 and an MCP server are included, and the 14-day trial needs no card.

Where it falls short: Claude is the most expensive engine on the plan, so tracking it weekly or daily means a much larger credit tier.

2. Rankscale (best for Claude on your own schedule)

Rankscale's Essentials plan costs $20 a month, or $204 a year, for 120 credits, and every engine it supports is on every plan, Claude and Grok included (read 28 September 2026). A Claude run costs 2 credits against about 0.25 for Perplexity, so the 120 credits buy about 60 Claude runs a month, two prompts a day if Claude is all you run. You set the cadence per project, from hourly to monthly. MCP is on every plan, and Search Console and GA4 connect in beta.

Where it falls short: credits drain eight times faster on Claude than on Perplexity, and the seven-day trial is for the $99 Pro plan only.

3. Cituna (best for Claude with six other engines and Search Console)

Cituna costs $39, $119 or $399 a month, and every plan checks Claude daily with ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Grok, Google AI Overviews and Google AI Mode, with Google Search Console built in (read 29 September 2026). Claude is not priced as a premium engine: it runs on the same prompts as the other six at no extra charge. For each Claude answer Cituna keeps the brands named, your position when named and the pages cited, so you can see whether Claude read your page or a roundup that mentions you.

It then writes the fix for each gap it finds and can publish the article; its API and MCP are read-only below the $119 Pro plan. Because Claude cites so many vendor and article pages, seeing which of those it used for a prompt you lost tells you where to publish next.

Where it falls short: no Microsoft Copilot, and the three-day trial needs a card.

Track Claude with six other engines and Search Console in Cituna, from $39 a month.

4. Geoptie (best for picking your engines)

Geoptie's Starter costs $49 month to month, or $41 a month billed annually, for 15 prompts and two brands (read 28 September 2026). Each plan tracks any four of seven engines, and Claude is one of the seven alongside ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, AI Mode and AI Overviews; you can swap the four at any time. Checks run daily across 123 markets. Its free GEO rank tracker also covers Claude without signup. geoptie.com was the fourth most-cited host in Claude's answers in our scans, with 104 citations in the 30 days to 22 September 2026.

Where it falls short: Grok is not offered, and a prompt tracked in several countries uses one prompt per country.

5. Mangools AI Search Watcher (best for many Claude prompts, checked weekly)

Mangools' AI Search Watcher Pro costs $49 a month, or $34.90 a month billed annually, for 500 prompts (read 29 September 2026). Its FAQ names eight engines, Claude and Grok among them, with ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Mistral and Llama. Each update runs every prompt twice, and updates are weekly on every plan. That is the largest prompt set here under $90, which makes it a good fit for testing how Claude treats a long list of comparison questions. API and MCP access come on every plan, and a free plan covers 5 prompts without a card, though the page we read did not say which engines it runs.

Where it falls short: weekly data only, no Perplexity or Copilot, and Search Console is not published.

6. Otterly.AI (best for Copilot users adding Claude)

Otterly.AI's Lite plan costs $29 a month, or $25 billed annually, for 15 prompts checked daily on ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Microsoft Copilot (read 28 September 2026). Claude is a $29 monthly add-on on Lite, which doubles the price to $58. Gemini and AI Mode are $9 add-ons each, and Grok is not mentioned. The trial runs seven or 14 days without a card, depending on which page you read.

Where it falls short: the Claude add-on costs as much as the plan itself, and 15 prompts is a small set.

7. AIclicks (best for tracking plus articles)

AIclicks' Starter costs $59 a month for 30 prompts on three models, with ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini as the defaults (read 28 September 2026). Any of the three can be swapped for another of its 11 models, and Claude and Grok are both on that list. Checks are daily, five AI-optimised articles a month are included, and the three-day trial needs no card. aiclicks.io was the host Claude cited most in our scans, with 171 citations in the 30 days to 22 September 2026.

Where it falls short: choosing Claude means giving up one of the three defaults, and API, MCP and GA4 start on Pro at $189.

8. LLM Pulse (best for weekly reports across engines)

LLM Pulse's Starter costs €49 a month with weekly checks, shown as $59, or €79 with daily checks (read 28 September 2026). Claude is not in the base set of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, AI Overviews and AI Mode; it is a €25 monthly add-on on weekly Starter, which puts weekly Claude tracking at €74. Grok is a €15 add-on. Each of the 50 prompts counts once across every engine it runs on, MCP is on every plan, and the 14-day trial on weekly plans needs a payment method. llmpulse.ai drew 170 Claude citations in our scans in the same window.

Where it falls short: the add-on price we read applies to weekly Starter, so daily Claude data costs more than €74 a month.

9. Rankshift (best for Claude with API and MCP for a whole team)

Rankshift's Starter costs €77 a month, shown as $92, or €69 billed annually, for 150 prompts a day and 9,500 credits a month (read 28 September 2026). Every plan covers all nine engines in its calculator, Claude and Microsoft Copilot among them, and refresh is daily or weekly. Claude and Copilot cost 5 credits a run where most engines cost 2, so Starter buys about 1,900 Claude runs a month, roughly 60 a day. API and MCP access, unlimited projects and unlimited seats come on every plan, and the 30-day trial needs no card.

Where it falls short: Claude is priced two and a half times most engines, Grok is not offered, and Search Console is not published.

10. Promptwatch (best for Claude with Search Console, API and MCP on the entry plan)

Promptwatch's Essential costs $95 a month, or $950 a year, for 50 prompts checked daily on four models (read 28 September 2026). Its supported-models table lists 11, Claude and Grok among them, alongside ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, AI Overviews and AI Mode. Every brand plan includes Google Search Console, and API and MCP access come with Essential. The 7-day trial covers Essential and Professional, with card terms not published.

Where it falls short: Claude takes one of only four model slots, the page does not say how the four are chosen, Copilot is not listed, and Essential has one seat.

11. Rankability (best for agencies tracking Claude for clients)

Rankability's Claude rank tracker page, read on 16 October 2026, lists three agency plans: Starter at $97 a month with 100 tracked AI queries, Agency at $297 with 300, and Agency Pro at $497 with 500. Every paid plan includes 11 AI platforms, Claude among them, with unlimited client workspaces and team members and API and MCP access. Scans run daily, weekly or on a custom schedule, and each records mentions, citations, your position and the competing brands Claude named. rankability.com was the third most-cited host in Claude's answers in our scans, with 116 citations.

Where it falls short: on 29 September 2026 its pricing page showed a single plan at $497 a month on a 12-month agreement, so confirm which terms apply before you sign.

12. Trakkr (best for Claude and Grok on every prompt, daily)

Trakkr's Growth plan costs $100 a month, or $1,000 a year, and every plan includes all eight of its models: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Grok, DeepSeek and Meta AI (read 28 September 2026). Growth tracks one brand daily on 50 prompts, so each prompt runs on Claude every day with no slot to give up and no credit to divide. It also includes 25 articles a month, three seats and MCP; the REST API starts on Scale at $500.

Where it falls short: no Google AI Mode or Copilot, Search Console only through a guide that uses exports, and the 14-day trial needs a card.

Other tools that list Claude

These name Claude but missed one test, as read on 28 or 29 September 2026. AthenaHQ's Starter, $295 a month for 3,600 credits across 11 models, adds Claude to the free tier's engines, but no check frequency is published. xseek's Starter, $249.99 a month, tracks Claude among eight engines, and Knowatoa adds Claude on Growth at $199, but neither publishes a check frequency. Peec AI and Profound offer Claude only on custom-priced Enterprise plans. SE Visible lists Claude as coming soon rather than live, and Semrush's AI Visibility Toolkit does not name it. Separately from its paid Watcher above, Mangools' free AI Search Grader runs Claude Haiku 4.5 with a free account, a small API model rather than the Claude app with web search. Superlines, Writesonic and other names in the lists that rank for this search were not checked against their own pages for this note.
