Updated 2026-10-29 Each fact read on the tool's own page, on the date shown

Yoast's AI brand tracking, in Yoast SEO AI+ at $358.80 a year, checks up to five questions a week. Its alternatives in 2026: Goppa, Otterly, Surfer and Search Atlas. Goppa keeps Yoast: it measures 20 questions on ChatGPT, Google AI Overview, Google AI Mode, Gemini and Perplexity, tracks Google, and writes each approved fix into Yoast's own fields, from €49 a month. Otterly starts at $29 a month.

The alternatives

1. Goppa

It gets the fix onto your site. Missing titles, meta descriptions, image alt text and product data are written by AI in your site's language, checked against your own pages, and applied by the plugin after you click approve.

Goppa starts at €49 a month, or €39.99 a month billed yearly, plus VAT, with 20 tracked questions, 100 Google keywords and the WordPress plugin that applies the fixes. The first check is free, with no card. Source: trygoppa.com/pricing · checked on 2026-10-29

When Yoast is the better choice

Yoast is the better choice when you only need the SEO fields, sitemaps, schema and llms.txt: the free Yoast plugin does that; when you want readability and inclusive-language checks while you write; when you need Claude in your AI tracking today; or when a few questions checked once a week are enough for you.
