The short answer

GEO Agency scores your pages and suggests fixes, from £0 to £129 a month with VAT included. It runs on Google Gemini, so its results are estimates.

Honest limits

GEO Agency runs on Google Gemini, so its scores and answer simulations are estimates, not a record of what ChatGPT or any other assistant told a customer.

We do not promise rankings or a place in AI answers, and this page does not claim that either tool can.

Common questions

How much does Profound cost?

When we checked on 13 November 2026, Profound's pricing page showed a free Trial and an Enterprise plan with custom pricing ("Get a Demo"). An FAQ there mentions a self-serve Agency Growth plan, but no price was shown for it. GEO Agency costs £0, £29 or £129 a month, VAT included.

Which AI assistants does Profound track?

Its pricing page (checked 13 November 2026) lists ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews on the Trial, and up to 10 answer engines on Enterprise, including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, Gemini, DeepSeek, Claude and Google AI Overviews. GEO Agency runs on Google Gemini only.

Is GEO Agency a cheaper Profound?

Not quite. Profound tracks what answer engines say about a brand. GEO Agency scores your pages, suggests fixes and reports on them, and its answer simulation runs on Gemini. They overlap, but they are built for different jobs.

Can an agency use GEO Agency for several clients?

Yes. The Agency plan (£129 a month, VAT included, 500 credits) adds a shared team workspace, the WordPress connection and white-label PDF reports.
