Searchable is one of the newer entrants in AI search visibility, and one of the fastest growing by search footprint. It promises to track where your brand appears across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews, then turn the gaps into content work.

Two things before we start. Citeme publishes a platform that tracks brand citations in AI engines and also operates as a GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) agency, so Searchable is a direct competitor of ours. And we have not run an account on it. This review judges a public offer, a documented positioning and signals we measured ourselves. Where we could not verify something, we say so.

**Our score: 3.5 out of 5.** Searchable has the cleanest category entry we have measured this year and a genuinely strong start in search. What holds the score back is the absence of independent evidence: almost nothing has been written about it by anyone who is not the vendor or an AI-generated review page.

## What Searchable actually is

Searchable positions itself as an AI search visibility and analytics platform. The public site describes prompt tracking, citation intelligence, share of voice against named competitors, sentiment, and a technical audit layer, bundled into a single workflow aimed at brand teams. It also advertises a free visibility report and an agent you can query about your own site.

One point of confusion worth clearing up. There are two different companies in these search results. Searchable, at searchable.com, is the AI visibility platform reviewed here. Searchable.ai is a separate company founded in 2019 in San Francisco, building a personal semantic search engine. They are unrelated, and the Crunchbase profile that ranks on this query belongs to the second one.

> **In short**: Searchable is an AI search visibility platform at searchable.com that tracks prompts, citations, share of voice and sentiment across the main AI engines, with a technical audit layer. It should not be confused with Searchable.ai, an unrelated semantic search company founded in 2019.

## What its own search footprint says

This is the part other reviews skip, and it is the part we can actually measure. We pulled the organic footprint of each platform in the category with DataForSEO on 20 September 2026, United States, so the comparison is like for like.

| Platform | Keywords ranked | Estimated monthly traffic | Keywords in position 1 |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| AirOps | 527 | 2 028 | 12 |
| Searchable | 308 | 1 262 | 3 |
| Scrunch | 110 | 2 109 | 8 |
| Citeme (us) | 21 | 21 | 0 |

Two readings. Searchable has built the second-widest keyword footprint in the category, and **235 of its 308 ranked keywords are new**, which is the signature of a site that has been publishing hard and recently. Very few of those positions are strong yet: three keywords in position 1 against AirOps' twelve. It is breadth first, depth later.

And the honest part: we are last in that table by a wide margin. We publish it because a review that only flatters the reviewer is worth nothing, and because the gap is the whole reason we can say something useful here. We are not writing from a position of strength in traditional search.

## Where Searchable is winning right now

On its own brand query, Searchable holds position 1, which is the minimum expected. The interesting detail is in the AI Overview that Google now shows above those results. It cites two sources: searchable.com itself, and a single independent review on radarkit.ai sitting at position 7.

That is the whole GEO lesson in one screenshot. One review page, ranked seventh, feeds the AI-generated answer that appears above every organic result. Position seven in the classic ranking, first in the answer people actually read.

> **In short**: Searchable ranks for 308 keywords, of which 235 are new, but holds only three first positions. Its brand query triggers an AI Overview that cites just two sources, the vendor and one third-party review ranked seventh, which shows how few pages it takes to own an AI answer in a young category.

## The limits we can see from outside

Almost no independent evidence exists. Searching the brand returns the vendor site, LinkedIn, a Trustpilot page, a Crunchbase profile for a different company, and one review. There is no detailed usage report, no comparison of readings over time, no quantified evaluation by a customer. For a buyer, that means you cannot lean on a peer's experience, and the free report becomes the only honest way to judge.

The pricing is public but thin on detail. Three tiers are advertised. What each tier covers in terms of engines, prompts and refresh frequency is where the real cost difference lives in this category, and it is not something you can compare from a pricing page alone.

The measurement question stays unanswered. Every platform here, ours included, claims to track citations across engines. The figure that separates them is how often each prompt is re-run, because model answers vary between runs. A number measured once is a photograph, not a trend. Nothing public tells you Searchable's refresh cadence.

## Who it suits

Searchable makes sense for a brand team that wants prompt tracking and citation intelligence in one interface, without an agency attached, and that is comfortable being an early customer of a young product. The free visibility report is a genuinely low-risk way to see your own numbers.

Look elsewhere if you need a documented track record before signing, if you need the work executed rather than only measured, or if your market is French-speaking: the platform and its content are built in English first.

## Our verdict: 3.5 out of 5

| Criterion | Score | Why |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Clarity of the offer | 4.0 | Public pricing, a free report, a clear scope |
| Search execution | 4.5 | 308 keywords and 235 of them new, the fastest build in the category |
| Depth of positions | 2.5 | Only three first positions for that breadth |
| Verifiability | 2.5 | One independent review in the entire results page |
| Product focus | 4.0 | The most narrowly focused of the three on visibility measurement itself |
| **Overall** | **3.5** | Average of the five criteria. A strong, fast start, short on outside proof |

### What is Searchable AI?

Searchable is an AI search visibility and analytics platform at searchable.com. It tracks where a brand appears across AI engines such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews, measures share of voice against named competitors, reads the sentiment attached to those mentions, and adds a technical audit layer covering how readable your pages are to AI crawlers. It targets brand and marketing teams rather than agencies. Worth knowing before you search for it: a different company called Searchable.ai, founded in 2019 in San Francisco, builds a personal semantic search engine and is unrelated. The Crunchbase profile that appears on this query belongs to that second company, which is a common source of confusion when you are researching the platform.

### How much does Searchable cost?

Searchable publishes three pricing tiers on its site, which already puts it ahead of much of this category, where a sales call is often the only way to learn a price. What the public page does not settle is the thing that actually drives cost in AI visibility tools: how many engines are queried, how many prompts are tracked, and above all how often each prompt is re-run. Model answers vary from one run to the next, so a platform that measures weekly and one that measures monthly are selling different products at comparable prices. Ask for the refresh cadence per tier before comparing quotes, and ask whether the number of prompts is a hard cap or a fair-use guideline.

### Is Searchable better than AirOps or Scrunch?

They solve different problems, so the comparison depends on what you need. Measured on their own search footprint on 20 September 2026, AirOps ranks for 527 keywords with twelve first positions, Searchable for 308 with three, and Scrunch for 110 with eight. AirOps is primarily a content operations and workflow platform that added AI visibility, Scrunch positions itself around AI customer experience, and Searchable is the most narrowly focused of the three on visibility measurement itself. If your problem is producing content at scale, AirOps is the closer fit. If it is knowing precisely where you stand in AI answers, Searchable is more direct. None of the three publishes enough about refresh cadence for a buyer to compare measurement quality from the outside.

### Are there independent reviews of Searchable?

Barely, and this is the main gap for a buyer today. As of 20 September 2026, the results page for the brand returns the vendor's own site, a LinkedIn company page, a LinkedIn launch post, a Trustpilot page, a Crunchbase profile belonging to a different company, and exactly one third-party review. No detailed usage report, no comparison of readings over several months, no quantified evaluation published by a customer. That single review is doing a lot of work: it is one of only two sources Google's AI Overview cites on this query. Until more independent evidence exists, the free visibility report is the most reliable way to form your own view, ideally run with a written protocol so you can judge the readings rather than the interface.

### Should I trust a review written by a competitor?

Only if it shows its work, which is why this one publishes its own numbers alongside Searchable's. Citeme ranks for 21 keywords against Searchable's 308, and we put that in the table rather than leaving it out. The measurements here come from DataForSEO on a stated date, in a stated market, and can be reproduced by anyone with an account. What we cannot tell you is how the product feels to use, how good its support is, or whether its citation data holds up over six months, because we have not run an account. Treat the measured parts as verifiable and the judgement parts as coming from someone with an interest. That is true of every competitor review, including the ones that do not say so.
