Profound alternative for agencies
What Profound costs per client and when a per-report price makes more sense for an agency.
The short answer
Profound sells an Enterprise platform (custom pricing) with a free 7-day trial of 50 prompts, and an Agency Growth plan where each client workspace is an add-on at $399 a month (100 prompts on ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews).
For an agency, that is $3,990 a month for 10 client workspaces before the base fee. With our Agency AI Visibility Reports, a monthly white-label packet for the same 10 clients costs $120, and a weekly one about $520.

FAQ
How much does Profound cost?
Profound lists a free 7-day trial (50 prompts daily) and custom Enterprise pricing on its pricing page as of Oct 22, 2026. Its Agency Growth plan, announced Nov 11, 2025, adds client workspaces at $399/month each and pitch workspaces at $199/month for five.
Is a weekly report enough for AI visibility?
For client reporting, usually yes. AI answers vary run to run, so trends across weeks are more useful than daily noise. Brands running daily campaigns or monitoring a crisis need daily tracking.
Can you run the reports for us?
Yes. The $99 portfolio audit covers up to 5 clients, delivered as finished packets.
