finding out or acting on it
At $45 a month, HubSpot AEO is the cheapest honest answer to a reasonable question: do AI models mention my brand at all? For a lot of companies that is the right first purchase, and nothing here argues otherwise.
The constraint is what happens next. 25 prompts across three models is 75 AI responses. AI models are non-deterministic, so the same question asked twice can come back differently, and at that sample size a single unlucky answer moves your number. It is enough to spot a problem. It is rarely enough to diagnose one, and a small sample does not just produce a noisy number, it points you at the wrong work.
Centium runs 120 prompts across six models, 720 responses in one complete reading, and reports the sources each model cited when it answered. That is the difference between knowing your visibility moved and knowing which publication, which page, and which competitor moved it.
Every Centium plan includes the full platform, including query fan-out and AI crawler access, so you can see whether the models can even reach your site. The only thing that changes between plans is how often the data refreshes.
what 25 prompts cannot cover
AI models are non-deterministic, so the same question can come back differently each time you ask it. At 25 prompts, one answer is four percent of your whole reading. At 120, it is under one percent.
Running the same 25 prompts every day makes that reading more precise, not wider. And 25 does not stretch far: sell three product lines to two kinds of buyer and you have six segments with four prompts each.
Centium runs 120 prompts across six models, 720 AI responses per reading, enough to cover a category and its segments at once. See how Centium measures visibility.
- You already know AI models are talking about your category, and you need to change what they say.
- Your buyers use Claude, Grok, or Google AI Mode, none of which HubSpot AEO covers.
- You want the sources behind each answer, so you know which page or publication to go earn.
- More than one person needs the dashboard, and you want export and archived history included.
- You want measurement depth: 120 prompts across six models, 720 AI responses in one reading.
- Your business has more than one product line, buyer type, or use case, and 25 prompts cannot cover them all.
- You are checking AI visibility for the first time and want the lowest-cost way to do it.
- Price is the binding constraint, and $45 a month is what the budget allows.
- ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity are the only models your buyers use.
- You run marketing in HubSpot and want AEO recommendations drawing on your CRM data.
- Twenty-five prompts genuinely cover your category.

HubSpot AEO is the cheapest way to find out whether AI models mention you: $45 a month for 25 prompts across ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. Centium is $99 for 120 prompts across six models, 720 AI responses per refresh, and the sources behind each answer. One tells you if you show up. The other tells you why, and what to change.
HubSpot AEO is $50 per month, or $45 per month billed annually, and includes 25 tracked prompts with the option to buy more at any time. It does not require a HubSpot subscription. AEO is also included with Marketing Hub Pro and Enterprise at a larger prompt allowance.
HubSpot AEO covers three: ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. Centium covers six on every plan: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Google AI Mode, Perplexity, and Grok. HubSpot does not cover Claude, Grok, or Google AI Mode, so a recommendation you earn in any of those is invisible there.
For a first look, yes. At $45 a month with no HubSpot subscription required, it is the lowest-cost way to confirm whether AI models name your brand. The limit is what you can do with it: 25 prompts across three models is 75 AI responses, which is enough to spot a problem and rarely enough to diagnose one.
It depends on how much of your business you need to see. AI models are non-deterministic, so each prompt is a sample rather than a fact, and at 25 prompts a single prompt is four percent of your entire reading. It is also a coverage limit: a company selling three product lines to two kinds of buyer has six segments before it asks anything about pricing or alternatives, and 25 prompts across six segments is four apiece. Running them daily makes that narrow reading more precise, not wider. Centium runs 120 prompts across six AI models, which is 720 AI responses in one reading.
Centium, if you have moved past checking and need to act. It runs 120 prompts across six AI models for $99 a month, reports the sources each model cited, and includes unlimited seats, export, and archived history on every plan. If price is the binding constraint, HubSpot AEO is genuinely cheaper.
No. HubSpot sells AEO standalone at $50 a month, or $45 billed annually, and it tracks your brand regardless of where your site is hosted. It is also bundled into Marketing Hub Pro and Enterprise, where the prompt allowance is larger and recommendations draw on your CRM data.
