Writesonic is a trademark of its owner. Writesonic details come from its public pricing page; answers a month are daily answers × 30. Plans change, so check before you buy.

$29a month

is where Wellows starts, with ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, AI Overviews and AI Mode tracked daily. Wellows sells this tool, so confirm every price on Writesonic's own site before you buy.

Short answer

  • Replacing the GEO tracker on a budget. Wellows starts at $29 a month and tracks ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode daily, with Content Opportunities and the KIVA writing agent included. Writesonic Starter is $79 a month billed yearly for three engines.
  • Perplexity and AI Mode without a quote. Writesonic tracks Perplexity and Google AI Mode only on Enterprise. Every Wellows plan includes both, and the $497 plan runs 240 prompts on all five engines.
  • Tracking and writing in one tool. Content Opportunities lists the pages you are missing and KIVA drafts them, which covers both jobs teams used Writesonic for.
  • Stay with Writesonic if you want one subscription for AI articles, site audits and GEO tracking, and three engines are enough until you move to Enterprise.

Why look

Why teams look for a Writesonic alternative

Writesonic bundles writing, audits and GEO tracking. Teams look elsewhere when the GEO features they need sit on higher tiers, when they want deeper citation data, or when they only ever used one half.

GEO features sit on higher tiers

Sentiment starts on Growth at $399 a month billed yearly, and the Action Center is a limited trial there, with full access on Enterprise. Perplexity and Google AI Mode are tracked only on Enterprise, so teams that need those engines face a custom quote.

Citation detail beyond mentions

The pricing page itemises prompts, engines and sentiment, but not citation tracking by source. Teams that want to see which pages engines cite, and which third-party pages shape answers about them, compare tools built around citations.

Writing only, or tracking only

Some teams use Writesonic only for articles and never open the GEO tab; others want tracking and already write in-house. Paying for both halves makes less sense when one would do.

Citations

How Writesonic and Wellows show the sources AI cites

Writesonic's pricing page lists prompts, engines and sentiment by plan. Wellows tracks five engines daily and counts citations in two kinds, each with its own way to grow.

Explicit

An engine cites a page you published, on all five engines

Writesonic's writer drafts and publishes articles, and its pricing page doesn't itemise which of them engines cite. Wellows logs every explicit citation by prompt, engine and URL on ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, AI Overviews and AI Mode, including the two Writesonic tracks only on Enterprise.

Grown on your site: Content Opportunities picks the missing page, KIVA researches it and Wellows drafts it for the prompts you are losing.

Implicit

A review or roundup that names you is the source

Writesonic's Action Center suggests off-page actions, five a month on Growth and in full on Enterprise. Wellows counts these third-party citations as their own number on every plan and grades the tone of each page behind them.

Grown off your site: the cited pages that name rivals and not you, each with a verified contact and a pitch draft.

Tracking

Five-engine GEO tracking, shown in Wellows

Where you stand on all five engines this morning

Each day starts with a short written recap of the last run across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, AI Overviews and AI Mode: what shifted, which competitor moved up and what to tackle first. Rank, visibility and citation counts sit under it.

  • Your citation share against every tracked rival, split by engine
  • Explicit and implicit counts, with the change since the previous run
  • Filters for engine, region and branded or unbranded prompts

What you also get

What Wellows adds next to Writesonic

Outreach on every plan, not from Growth up

Writesonic's off-page actions sit in the Action Center from Growth up. Wellows lists the cited pages that name your rivals and not you on every plan, each with a verified contact and a pitch you can send.

Pages drafted for the prompts you lose, not an article quota

Writesonic's writer turns out a set number of articles a month. KIVA starts from your Search Console data to choose the terms and follow-up questions a missing page needs, then Wellows drafts that page to be quoted.

Tone graded from $29, not from $399

Writesonic adds sentiment from Growth at $399 a month billed yearly. Wellows grades the tone of each cited page from $29 and puts the negative ones engines use most at the top.

Perplexity and AI Mode in the daily brief, below Enterprise

Writesonic refreshes daily on three engines below Enterprise. Wellows sends a short note each morning on what moved across all five, including Perplexity and AI Mode, and which rival gained.

White-label reports, which Writesonic doesn't list

Writesonic lists Looker Studio on Enterprise and no white-label reports. Wellows gives agencies per-client dashboards in their own branding on every plan.

Unlimited seats, against 1 to 3 on Writesonic

Writesonic plans include one to three users and one or two projects, with extra users at $50 each. Wellows has unlimited seats and projects, so every brand and client gets its own space.

This is how Wellows does it

Introducing C.I.T.A.T.I.O.N.™

Wellows’ proven framework for AI visibility optimization.

“See, Craft, Proof, Sell” is what you experience. C.I.T.A.T.I.O.N.™ is the eight-step method behind it.

Eight steps, one loop. That’s the difference between a platform that reports a number and a method built to move it.

  7. O
  8. N
  1. C: Chart the visibility gap

    Exactly where you’re cited today and where you’re not, against every named competitor.

  2. I: Investigate why competitors are cited

    We check both the AI answer and the source pages behind it, the layer most tools never open.

  3. T: Target the prompts and pages that matter

    The gap becomes a ranked list: the prompts and pages worth going after first, not a generic content calendar.

  4. A: Author content built to be cited

    KIVA, our built-in writing assistant, drafts the page against your own Search Console data.

  5. T: Trust-build through verified outreach

    Citations you can go earn directly, not just wait for.

  6. I: Improve against daily signals

    Nothing sits still. Every shift surfaces the next day, at the URL level.

  7. O: Own the answer

    The goal was never a mention. It’s being the source the model pulls from.

  8. N: Numbers that prove the movement

    Pick two dates, see the exact lift, and put your climb next to a named rival.

Testimonials

What practitioners say about Wellows

Feedback from people working in AI search.

  • Your client's competitors are being cited by ChatGPT. Your client isn't. And until you fix that, the gap is only going to widen. The strategy is simple. Get your client onto the pages that LLMs already trust. But finding those pages? That used to be a nightmare. Wellows changes this completely.

    Freddie ChattEcommerce SEO Consultant
  • If you want to measure AI visibility, reliably track your LLM citations, identify where competitors are winning, and systematically close those gaps. That's exactly what Wellows is built for.

    Vladi KriulinContent Strategist
  • You're guessing which sites to contact. Guessing what to say. Guessing if it'll even move the needle on AI visibility. That's where Wellows turns this into a repeatable system. And it's why I've decided to use this.

    Alex GrobermanFounder, Alex Groberman Labs
  • I've been testing a tool called Wellows that turns these hidden signals into real visibility. The workflow is surprisingly smart!
