A check marks where BotSay gives you more for the month.
Qwairy charges credits for each answer, more for premium models read through official APIs, so how many questions a plan reads depends on the engines and schedule you choose.
Qwairy charges 1 credit for each answer from its core models, and 2 to 20 credits for each answer from premium models read through official APIs (credits). Its plans hold up to 100, 300 or 800 questions, and how many answers the credits buy depends on the engines and schedule you choose. Unused credits roll over.
BotSay's price covers a set number of questions, each asked on ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Google AI Overviews and Google AI Mode every week. Every engine costs the same, because every engine is included:
- Starter: $59 a month for 60 questions.
- Growth: $139 a month for 150 questions.
- Scale: $359 a month for 400 questions.
A likely range and a test, printed with every reading
Qwairy lets you monitor daily, weekly or monthly, and its optional boost asks for 2 to 20 answers per model on a run (monitoring). Its FAQ says provider output can vary between generations, so an answer is an observation rather than a universal result. Qwairy publishes no likely range for any figure and no test for when a change is real.
BotSay asks the same questions of the same six engines every week and compares the week with the one before. Your Mention rate comes with its likely range, the span the true rate almost certainly sits in, and the number of answers behind it. When the rate moves, BotSay runs the exact test on both weeks and labels the change as real once it clears their combined uncertainty. Share of voice, Average rank, Your pages cited and Sentiment show each week's figure and how it moved. Below, an invented brand's two weekly ranges sit clear of each other.
The figures as a table
| Week | Mention rate | Likely range (%) |
|---|---|---|
| Last week | 27.8% | 25.1 to 30.7 |
| This week | 34.0% | 31.1 to 37.0 |

BotSay ranks the work by how many questions it could win
Qwairy gives each action in its Action Center a score from 0 to 100, anchored to a Critical, High or Standard tier, and a demand signal from 1 to 5 (its release notes).
BotSay's action list gives each item the number of your questions it could win, with the answers that show it:
- Pages to write: topics where rivals are named and you are not.
- Places to be mentioned: the review sites, communities and publishers the engines lean on, and whether you are on them.
- Quick decisions: small choices that make your numbers more accurate, like confirming which sites are yours.
Once you publish, BotSay follows the questions that work was meant to win and labels the change in Mention rate when it is real.
