The short answer

  • Choose the panel before comparing prices: prompt counts alone do not specify the same engines, regions or frequency.
  • Peec pricing lists 50 prompts and three chosen models on Starter. Different views of Scrunch pricing showed different plan names and allowances; confirm the current offer.
  • Scrunch Agent Pages describes delivery to retrieval agents; this is a separate decision from monitoring answers.

Quote the same panel

Write down the prompts, engines, regions, languages and reporting frequency for both vendors. Ask for a written price covering that panel rather than comparing headline prompt counts.

Peec pricing lists daily tracking, 50 prompts and three models on Starter, and 150 and 350 prompts on Pro and Advanced. Confirm which engines, countries and API rights are included; its published materials can differ by plan.

Scrunch pricing displayed different plan names and prompt allowances in separate views, with an entry offer from $250 per month. Ask for the current plan, billing basis and refresh cadence in the quote.

For a hypothetical procurement exercise, hold 20 questions, two agreed engines and one market constant. Ask both vendors how many slots and runs that configuration consumes; do not assume their units or prices are equivalent. Peec describes daily tracking. Scrunch describes daily runs for the first 14 days and every 72 hours by default thereafter. Confirm current settings.

Keep answers and history

Both tools should be evaluated against the same export task: retrieve a prompt, engine, date, answer and citation URL, then reproduce a report. Ask how missing runs and changed prompt wording affect the series.

Peec’s archive API says archiving stops prompt runs while retaining chats and history. Verify plan access and the export fields your team requires.

Scrunch’s API FAQ describes response text, citations and metadata. Its data FAQ says up to one year is available in the platform and via API. Confirm the endpoint window and API entitlement; that window alone does not prove older stored records are deleted.

Peec defines position as average rank among brands when the brand appears, with lower numbers better. Scrunch describes a 100/50/0 top/middle/bottom position average among mentions, with higher scores indicating more prominent placement. Do not put the two on the same scale or interpret them as sales.

Decide whether to serve agent pages

Scrunch Agent Pages describes translating pages and serving the result to AI retrieval bots at the CDN. This delivery layer is a separate workflow from measuring sampled answers.

The brand Scrunch pricing table we saw lists AXP as custom on Enterprise, not Core. Confirm availability and cost in the current quote; the entry monitoring price does not establish delivery access.

If delivery matters, ask both vendors to demonstrate the precise feature and its entitlement. Review bot selection, canonical page consistency, approvals and rollback with the site owner. We have not verified delivery or its effect on citations.

Peec Actions describes recommendations and content editing, and Peec Agent describes analysis and task workflows. Ask about plan access and publication approval. These action workflows and delivery of site content to visiting bots are distinct capabilities.

Make the decision with one trial

Consider Peec AI when its documented archive workflow and confirmed panel coverage fit. Consider Scrunch when its API terms or described agent delivery address a specific requirement.

Common questions

Which is better for my team?

Consider Peec AI for its documented archive workflow and Scrunch for its described agent delivery. Compare the same panel and test the required exports.

Does Scrunch include API access on Starter?

Scrunch pricing lists Enterprise Data API with Enterprise. Confirm the exact API and entitlement in your order.

Can Peec preserve a prompt’s history?

Peec’s archive endpoint says archiving stops runs while retaining chats and history.

Are their prompt allowances directly comparable?

No. Confirm engines, regions, frequency and what counts toward each allowance before comparing the cost.
