What Otterly.AI does that Citead does not

Microsoft Copilot included in every plan, and Claude as well as Google AI Mode available as options: Citead tracks none of these three engines.
Sector visibility benchmarks (about 148 "Most visible brands in…" pages) and a ranking of the 100 most visible brands, published without an account.
Large-scale citation studies, such as the analysis of 617,985 citations across 7 engines and 5 sectors, and single-variable experiments published with their figures.
8 free tools without an account, against 4 at Citead, and a prompt marketplace.
Broader social proof: more than 40,000 professionals announced, G2 4.8 out of 5, Gartner Cool Vendor.

Gemini included in every plan, while it is a paid option at Otterly.AI.
Built-in fix editor with the score updated during editing; Otterly.AI stops at recommendations.
Website in French and English, support in French, interface in 9 languages; Otterly.AI is in English only.
A clear trial length: 14 days without a card, where Otterly.AI shows 14 days in a pop-up and 7 days in its FAQ.
Article generation and rewriting counted in credits within the same subscription (50 credits at €29 per month).

Where Citead falls short

Citead does not track Microsoft Copilot, Claude or Google AI Mode.
Citead publishes no sector benchmarks of brand visibility; its public ranking covers the GEO score of pages, not observed citations.
Citead offers neither a prompt marketplace nor a partner agency directory.
