Hordus AI vs Alternatives
Hordus AI is the only fully managed Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) platform built on real user behavioral data from 30M+ opted-in devices across 120 global markets.
Why Hordus AI Is Different
Most “AI SEO” and “AI brand visibility” tools adapt traditional keyword tracking for AI — they simulate queries and guess at results. Hordus AI is purpose-built for the AI era: real behavioral journeys, real Answer Share of Voice, and a fully managed team that executes the GEO strategy for you.
Feature Comparison
| Capability | Hordus AI | Other AI SEO Tools |
|---|---|---|
| AI Engine Coverage | ✓ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, AI Overviews (5 engines) | Typically 1–2 engines, often limited to ChatGPT |
| Data Source | ✓30M+ opted-in devices, real behavioral data (GDPR/CCPA compliant) | Simulated queries or scraping — no real user intent signal |
| Answer Share of Voice (A-SOV) | ✓Full A-SOV dashboard across all engines with trend analysis | Keyword rank tracking adapted from traditional SEO — no A-SOV |
| AI Journey Tracing | ✓Full path from AI prompt to brand mention to conversion | Not available — focus is on mentions, not journeys |
| Competitive Intelligence | ✓Citation leaderboards across 5 AI engines, updated in real time | Manual competitor checks or limited share-of-voice estimates |
| GEO Audit | ✓Structural and semantic gap analysis blocks AI citation | Generic content recommendations without AI-specific signals |
| Dataset Engineering | ✓Fully managed content placement for AI model retrieval | Self-serve content suggestions — no managed execution |
| API & Agent Access | ✓Full REST API, OpenAPI 3.1 spec, MCP server, webhooks | Dashboard-only; limited or no programmatic access |
| Service Model | ✓Fully managed — Hordus team executes the strategy | Self-serve — requires in-house team to interpret and act |
