AthenaHQ

AthenaHQ helps marketing teams optimize how their brand shows up in AI search answers. It brings Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) into one unified workflow—so you can monitor visibility across major AI platforms, understand why you’re winning or losing, and take action to improve outcomes.

With cross-platform AI visibility tracking across 11+ LLMs, AthenaHQ shows where your brand is referenced, how often it appears, and how you compare with competitors. Teams can use citation and source analysis to see what AI platforms are pulling from, identify content gaps AI can’t answer, and apply automated content optimization recommendations. AthenaHQ also supports AI-powered PR monitoring and press kits to understand brand mentions and sentiment across AI platforms, with tools for proactive narrative control.

AthenaHQ is designed for AEO/GEO specialists and teams responsible for brand discovery, content strategy, and measurement—especially organizations that need consistent oversight across multiple channels, prompts, and audiences. Executive and board-ready reporting helps connect AI visibility work to ROI tracking and investment decisions.

Plans include a Free option with a $25 free credit, as well as Starter and Enterprise tiers. Starter is $295/month (or $300/month billed annually, with credits provided), while Enterprise offers custom setup and custom credits; additional API access and extra credits are available as paid add-ons.
