Why teams switch

Five reasons GEO teams move off Profound.

No throat-clearing, no feature parity charts. The things customers tell us in the first migration call.

  • 01

    Coverage gaps.

    Profound tracks 8 engines. We track 10 — including Grok and AI Mode, the two that ship the fastest right now.

  • 02

    Refresh cadence.

    Profound runs weekly batches. We refresh daily, so a Monday change shows up Tuesday, not the following Monday.

  • 03

    Suggestions engine.

    Profound reports the problem. We rank the fixes by expected lift and ship drafted code so your team patches in a sprint.

  • 04

    Pricing transparency.

    Profound hides pricing behind a sales call. We publish ours. Plans start at $99 and scale by prompts, not seats.

  • 05

    Free tier.

    Their AEO Report is email-gated and one-time. Our Clovion Report is open, unlimited, and refreshes whenever you re-run it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Run Clovion alongside Profound until your renewal date — the 30-day side-by-side trial is built for exactly this. Most teams use the overlap to validate the switch before they let Profound auto-renew. If you want to negotiate an early exit, we can share the comparison data your procurement team will ask for.

Yes. Export the CSV from Profound and we map prompts, competitor lists, and persona tags into your Clovion workspace. Historical share-of-voice from Profound does not transfer — that data lives in their system — but your forward tracking starts day one with full history from Clovion.

Most teams are operating in Clovion within the first week. The product is built around three things: the visibility number, the prompt-level breakdown, and the ranked fix list. If your team used Profound, the mental model transfers fast. Solutions engineers run a 30-minute onboarding call for every new account.

We publish pricing at /pricing. Most teams that switch from Profound spend less for more engines and daily refresh — but it depends on prompt count and competitor count. Send us your current Profound contract anonymized and we will run the exact comparison in writing.

Run both. The 30-day overlap is free and the data settles arguments. You will see where the two tools agree, where they disagree, and which one matches your team's ground-truth checks. Switching on the strength of a sales demo is a worse bet than switching on the strength of your own data.

Teams at Notion, Brex, and several mid-market SaaS companies in the last 12 months. We can put you in touch with a reference on a similar stack before you commit — ask on the migration call.

The honest pitch

Choosing between us? Run both. Decide on data.

Thirty days side-by-side. Same prompts, same engines, same window. The tool that surfaces more, faster, wins your renewal.
