Trovance vs Ahrefs Brand Radar.
Who each is for.

Ahrefs Brand Radar tracks the prompts you write on up to seven AI platforms, and sells a search-backed prompt index for researching any brand’s AI visibility, next to the rest of Ahrefs. Trovance is for lean B2B teams that want the gaps in those answers turned into drafts a person approves, from a weekly check of their buyer questions.

What it does
Brand Radar is Ahrefs’ AI visibility tool. It tracks prompts you write, as often as daily, on AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot and Claude, and it sells an index of search-backed prompts for researching any brand’s AI visibility. Reports show mentions, citations, impressions and AI share of voice, next to the rest of Ahrefs.

Which should you choose?

Choose Trovance if…

  • You want each gap drafted in your voice, with a person approving every draft before it ships.
  • You want a ranked queue of what to publish next, not only reports to read.
  • You want a fixed weekly check on a published plan, rather than a quota of checks to spend.

Choose Ahrefs Brand Radar if…

  • You already pay for Ahrefs Lite or above and want to start with the prompts it includes.
  • You want instant research on any brand’s AI visibility across a search-backed prompt index.
  • You want AI visibility beside your search-demand and SEO data in one tool.
  • You want Claude or Copilot in your tracking, at a daily, weekly or monthly cadence you set for each platform.

A few good questions.

Can we buy Brand Radar without the rest of Ahrefs?

Yes. Custom prompt packages start at $50 a month for teams that only track their own prompts, and the AI Visibility Index is $199 a month per platform. Ahrefs’ Lite plan and above also include 5 to 20 tracked prompts.

What does Brand Radar show after an answer?

Mentions, citations, cited pages and AI share of voice, and the fan-out queries AI runs behind a prompt, which point to content gaps. Your team decides what to create; Trovance drafts each gap in your voice for a person to approve.

Which one checks AI answers more often?

Brand Radar lets you set daily, weekly or monthly checks per platform, each counted against your quota. Trovance’s scheduled sweeps are weekly on a fixed set of engines per plan. Choose the cadence your team can act on.

What should we test before choosing?

Take the same five buyer questions through both, on the engines your buyers use. Compare what each shows about the sources cited, and what your team has in hand afterwards: a report to act on, or a draft to approve.

Try it on your own buyer question.

Get understood. Get cited. Get chosen.
