# Nodpick

> Status: Nodpick opens soon; early access through the waitlist at https://nodpick.com/#waitlist.

> Nodpick is an AI visibility tracker: it asks AI assistants and Google's AI answers the questions a company's buyers ask, and shows whether the brand is named, whether it is recommended or just mentioned, who is named instead, which sources are cited and what to fix first. Every answer behind a score can be read. Every paid plan measures ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude (all with web search, in the chosen country and language); Agency, or an add-on on Starter and Growth, adds Grok, Mistral, DeepSeek and Kimi (the last two answer without web search). The free check asks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude. It asks buyer questions in seven languages, scores the brand's position from 0 to 100, shows share of voice and cited sources, and lists ranked recommendations, each with an evidence grade (A documented, B studied, C untested). Every score comes with a 95 % range. Paid plans ask each question once a week and ask again when the brand's mention changes (both answers count); a weekly change only counts as real when it beats the brand's normal swing. Google AI impressions can be imported from Search Console. It does not track Microsoft Copilot, voice assistants or featured snippets.

Plans: Starter 49 €/month (1 brand, 25 questions); Growth 129 €/month (3 brands, 70 questions); Agency 399 €/month (15 brands, 220 questions). Net prices for businesses (B2B), plus VAT where it applies. All six core engines are on every plan; Agency, or the "More assistants" add-on on Starter and Growth, adds Grok, Mistral, DeepSeek and Kimi. Free check: 5 scored questions plus 1 question about your brand (not scored), on ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude; you confirm your email once (code or link), no card; one check per website per week. Seven languages, 17 markets. Subscriptions open on launch day.
