LLMrefs and QueryTrace both track how often AI models mention your brand. LLMrefs tracks more models on one uncapped plan, at about eight times QueryTrace's starting price.

LLMrefs is a single-plan AI visibility tool that tracks up to 8 AI models and 500 prompts, aimed at agencies running multiple projects.

14-day free trial. No card required.

QueryTrace is the better pick for most people comparing the two: a founder or small team tracking one brand who wants a low, clear price.

LLMrefs is worth it only if you're the exception: a team or agency that wants the widest possible model coverage and prompt volume on a single uncapped plan, and does not mind paying more for it.
