GetCito started as AI Monitor, an AI visibility tracker. In October 2026 its site describes it as an award-winning AI search optimization and digital marketing agency that created what it calls the first open-source GEO platform. The company is led by co-founder and CEO Avinash Tripathi, publishes research frameworks on LLM SEO, and has offices in India and the United States. It claims more than 140 B2B SaaS and D2C brands as clients.
This change matters if you are comparing software: GetCito now sells mainly a done-for-you service. The open-source tool is free if you host it yourself, while the paid Growth and Scale plans combine the tool with a team of a GEO strategist, a content writer, a frontend developer, a brand mention specialist and a community manager. It suits SEO experts, PR teams, founders, agencies and local businesses that want people to execute the work, and developers who want to run an AI visibility tracker on their own servers.

The best GetCito alternatives
1. Sorank
Sorank is SEO and GEO software on autopilot, with no agency layer. Instead of a retainer with a human team, the software finds the keywords, builds the topic clusters, then writes, illustrates and publishes 20, 60 or 120 articles per month on your CMS (more than 10 platforms, including WordPress, Shopify and Webflow) with internal linking, anti-cannibalization and fact-checking. It draws on data from thousands of sites and hundreds of millions of keywords, with search intent, query fan-out, a GEO ranking of the domains AI cites and a weekly read of what up to 5 chosen competitors publish. A unified dashboard brings Search Console, Analytics and AI traffic together.
Each week Sorank asks AI your customers' questions (25 prompts on ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini with Essential, 50 prompts with Perplexity and Grok added on Pro, 150 on Business) and shows whether your brand is mentioned, which brands are cited instead and which sources AI uses. Backlinks come from a network of direct, one-way links between the sites of more than 5,000 Sorank users, with credits (100 per month on Pro, 300 on Business). Plans are Essential at $99 per month, Pro at $249 and Business at $499, or $49, $129 and $249 per month billed yearly, with a 3-day free trial and a 90-day money-back guarantee (see pricing). Agencies can use the white label, and the MCP connector lets you drive Sorank from Claude or ChatGPT.
