Coverage Gap
And twelve more Promptwatch doesn’t ship.
Side by Side
The capability split, grouped.
| Capability | Promptwatch | Writesonic |
|---|---|---|
| Visibility + data depth | All major engines | Yes |
| Real numerical AI search volume | Not available | Topic and prompt-level numerical volume |
| Multi-region geography | Country only | Country, state, city on every paid tier |
| Portfolios | Per-website pricing (1 / 2 / 5 sites) | Native multi-brand with cross-brand rollups |
| Free trial | Explore tier ($0, 10 prompts, ChatGPT only) | 7 days, no credit card |
Pricing
Promptwatch starts at $99, but caps you at one seat, one website, five generated articles, and country-only geography. The Action Center, agentic workflows, and trust posture aren’t on the roadmap.
