SE Ranking alternative

CrunchJunkie vs SE Ranking

SE Ranking's SEO plans include AI-search tracking (100 prompts tracked daily on 5 LLMs on Core, €109/mo), and a €79/mo AI Search add-on adds more prompts and its AI Results Tracker for AI Overviews, AI Mode, Perplexity and ChatGPT. CrunchJunkie starts from AI visibility instead: 10 engines on every plan from €14/mo, reported next to ad and analytics channels. For backlinks and keyword research, SE Ranking is the stronger tool.

Who should choose SE Ranking

  • Rank tracking, keyword research and backlinks are your daily work. That is SE Ranking's core.
  • You want AI Overviews and AI Mode tracked in the same tool as your Google rankings.
  • You want to try before you pay: SE Ranking's 14-day trial needs no card.

Who should choose CrunchJunkie

  • You need Claude, Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek or Meta AI, none of which SE Ranking tracks today (Claude is listed as coming soon): all 10 engines are on every CrunchJunkie plan.
  • You report AI visibility to clients next to Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, Microsoft Ads, GA4 and Search Console.
  • You want more than 100 tracked prompts a day without buying an add-on: CrunchJunkie has no prompt cap on paid plans.
