Found by AI vs Trakkr - Content
A self-serve AI platform. A managed AI Content service.
If you want a self-serve AI drafting platform - log in, spend credits, finish drafts on your site - Trakkr works. $79/month for 5 credits, $399/month for 25 credits plus visibility tracking. We're a managed service: AI Content (€199-€799/month) means we write, edit, and publish the articles for you. Monitoring runs, content gets produced and shipped, reports come back - no logging in to draft. Different operating model.
The Core Difference
Trakkr is a self-serve drafting platform. We're a managed AI Content service.
Trakkr is a self-serve AI drafting platform with eight-engine visibility tracking bundled in. Your team logs in, spends article credits, gets long-form AI-generated drafts in your brand voice - 5 credits/month on Growth ($79/mo), 25 credits/month on Scale ($399/mo, agency white-label features). The drafts are well-structured and on-topic, but they're drafts: most reviews note real editing is expected before publication, and the article lands wherever your team deploys it (typically your site). If your team is comfortable operating the platform and has an editor who can finish drafts, it's a tidy bundle.
Found by AI is the other kind of product: a managed service. We don't sell credits and you don't log in to draft. Our AI Content Minimum is €199/mo annual (€239 monthly): 3 launch articles, 2/month, 1 language. Growth is €399/mo annual (€479 monthly): 8 launch articles, 4/month, plan translated into 3 languages. We write, edit, and publish (or support publishing) the articles on your site, informed by what AI Monitoring sees in your visibility gaps. Optional found-by.ai profile included when useful at no extra cost. Different operating model - you operate Trakkr's platform; we operate the AI Content.
Where each one sits on content
What Trakkr does for content
- Article credits as the unit of output: 5/month on Growth ($79/mo), 25/month on Scale ($399/mo). Each credit produces one long-form, AI-generated, brand-voiced article
- Drafts ship at-the-door - most reviews note real editorial polish is expected before publication, so the editing time lands on your team
- Generated content publishes on your site - same operating model as your sales pages, no separate profile surface in the deal
- Eight-engine AI visibility tracking bundled in alongside the credits - useful if you want one platform doing both jobs at the same price point
What Found by AI does for content
- Productized content production - we write, edit, and produce 8 launch articles plus 4 articles/month, with quarterly refreshes through AI Content (Growth €399/mo)
- Optional profile included - found-by.ai can be used as an add-on surface, but the paid value is recurring AI Content
- AI Content tiers: Minimum €199/mo annual (€239 monthly): 3 launch, 2/month, 1 language; Growth €399/mo annual (€479 monthly): 8 launch, 4/month, 3 languages; Pro €799/mo annual (€959 monthly): 16 launch, 8/month, 10 languages; AI Content includes AI Monitoring Minimum on every plan, monthly and annual; Growth is available as a paid upgrade
- No editorial cost lands on your team - articles ship finished, not as drafts your editor still needs to take to publishable quality
The operating difference
Monitoring shows the gap. AI Content does the work.
Found by AI pairs low-cost AI Monitoring with recurring content production. The found-by.ai profile is an optional included surface, not a separate product or proof claim.
| Generates content? | Publishes for you? | Publishing surface | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Trakkr | Yes (article credits) | No | Customer's own site |
| Found by AI | Yes | Yes | Recurring AI Content; optional found-by.ai profile |

AI Monitoring is the diagnostic. Recurring AI Content is the paid work; the optional profile is included and can be skipped without changing price.

Credits vs finished articles
Choose Trakkr if...
- You want article credits you can draft and deploy on your own site, with editing handled in-house
- Your bet is that your own domain is the right surface for AI citations and you want a credit-based pipeline feeding it at a steady rate
- You're an agency or multi-brand operation needing white-label, client portals, and 25 credits/month - Scale at $399/mo is built for that shape of work
Choose Found by AI if...
- You want finished AI Content prepared and supported for publication on your site - no draft pipeline to staff editors against
- You'd rather have recurring AI Content produced for your customer site, with publishing support and optional profile inclusion when useful than article credits to push live on your own domain
- You believe the service differentiator is execution - that recurring finished content beats a larger queue of drafts your team still has to finish
- You want predictable productized pricing - €199/mo, €399/mo, or €799/mo - with AI Content including AI Monitoring Minimum on every plan
Frequently asked questions
What does Trakkr actually do for me?
Trakkr is a self-serve AI platform you operate yourself. You log in, spend article credits, get long-form AI-generated drafts in your brand voice - 5 credits/month on Growth ($79/mo), 25 credits/month on Scale ($399/mo) - and take those drafts through editing and publication on your site. Eight-engine AI visibility tracking is bundled in. If you want a platform you run yourself, where your team is comfortable spending credits and finishing drafts, Trakkr works. Found by AI is a managed service: AI Content (€199-€799/month) means we write, edit, and publish (or support publishing) the articles. You don't log in to draft. Different operating model - self-serve platform versus done-for-you service.
Why €199 instead of $79?
Different products, different price floors. Trakkr Growth at $79/month is mostly a tracker with a small content allowance - 5 credits/month for drafts your team finishes on your site. Our AI Content Minimum is €199/mo annual (€239 monthly) for 3 launch articles plus 2/month in 1 language, written and published for you. So $79 and €199 aren't equivalent. The closer comparison: Trakkr Scale at $399/month (25 credits) versus our AI Content Growth at €399/mo annual (€479 monthly): 8 launch articles, 4/month, plan translated into 3 languages. Same on the invoice. The difference: whether your team operates a drafting platform or whether we ship finished articles.
Can I use both?
Yes. Trakkr's article credits can feed your site if you want a steady trickle of drafts for your blog, knowledge base, or commercial pages and your team has the editorial capacity to finish them. Found by AI produces customer-site AI Content for you: planning, writing, editing, refreshes, and publishing support, with an optional found-by.ai profile when useful. The bills stack, but the surfaces don't compete if your team wants both self-serve draft volume and a managed AI Content stream.
What does "25 credits" actually mean for output?
On paper, 25 long-form articles per month at Trakkr Scale ($399/month). Each credit produces one AI-generated article in your brand voice. In practice, the honest math includes editorial finishing on your team - most reviews note AI-drafted long-form needs real editing before publication, so 25 credits is 25 drafts you take through to publication. Our AI Content Growth at €399/month is 8 launch articles plus 4/month with quarterly refreshes - fewer pieces, but written, edited, and shipped to your site with no editorial work landing on your team. If you want volume and have an editor, Trakkr's the right answer. If you want fewer pieces, finished, with no team time spent on drafting, that's us.
Bottom line
Trakkr is a self-serve AI drafting platform - $79/month for 5 credits, $399/month for 25 credits plus visibility tracking - that your team operates themselves. Log in, spend credits, finish drafts, publish on your domain. If your team is comfortable running the platform and has the editorial capacity to finish the drafts, Trakkr is the right answer for that operating model. Found by AI is the other kind of product: a managed AI Content service at €199-€799/month where we write, edit, and publish (or support publishing) the articles - informed by AI Monitoring, with an optional found-by.ai profile when useful. The question: do you want a platform your team operates, or the content produced for you? If the first, Trakkr. If the second, us.
