Koalr vs Rankscale
Flat pricing you can forecast, credits you cannot
Rankscale meters everything through credits - every engine query burns them, so the monthly bill moves with usage. Its own site describes analysis rather than execution: it "does not generate text or media itself", and no alerting appears on its published plans or changelog. Koalr is a flat price per site with the full loop included, from daily monitoring to published content.

Koalr and Rankscale, row by row.
Every Rankscale entry below was read off its own pricing page, documentation and changelog in August 2026. Where its published materials do not describe a capability, the row says so in those words rather than claiming the capability is missing.

On every plan
What Koalr includes that Rankscale doesn't.
Each of these is standard on the £79 Starter, not held back for a larger plan or an enterprise contract.
A Content Studio that drafts
It ranks what to write, drafts against a named prompt and the page currently outranking you, and tracks citations after publish. Monitoring tells you that you are losing a prompt; this is the part that does something about it.
Planning and scheduling built inBeta
Plan the pipeline and schedule publishing from inside the Studio, so the work that came out of the visibility data goes live without moving to a second tool.
AI Traffic, on every plan
See which AI crawlers read which pages, joined against what those engines then cite. Crawled-but-never-cited is the most actionable state a page can be in, and it only shows up when both halves sit in one place.
Alerts and a weekly digest
Visibility drops and competitor overtakes reach you when they happen, and a weekly digest sums up what changed. Nobody has to remember to open the dashboard.
Its own crawler: GEO Audit and AXOBeta
Koalr crawls your pages and the rival page currently beating you, checking schema, llms.txt and answer structure, then scores how readable the page is to an agent from 0 to 100.
Kevin, over your own data
An in-app agent that streams answers about your metrics, prompts, citations, competitors and actions, and sends a daily digest. Ask it what moved this week instead of assembling the answer from four dashboards.
“You’ve done an absolutely stonking job. It exceeded my expectations.”
