Why people look beyond SeekON.

SeekON is an AI visibility audit tool from Winfield Technologies. It asks ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini about your business live, for the keywords your customers use, and reports whether each one names you, which competitors it names instead and where it gets your facts wrong. 1

Its pricing is short: a free audit of your site, a $27 Pro Audit paid once that covers 3 audits with live tests on up to 3 keywords, and monitoring at $29 a month that checks your keywords weekly. Enterprise work across several sites is scoped with you before you pay. 2

Upthread is built for ongoing work rather than a snapshot. It keeps a ranked inbox of the Reddit threads that AI answers and Google results put in front of your buyers, drafts two replies per thread that follow the subreddit's rules, and tracks each reply after you post it.

Who should choose which.

  • You want a one-off read of what ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini say about you, for $27 with no subscription. 2
  • You only need a weekly email when your AI ranking changes on a few keywords, for $29 a month. 3
  • You run a small business and want answers and fixes from your website address alone, with no setup and no onboarding call. 4

Who should choose Upthread

Switching from SeekON.

Like an audit, setup begins with your website address, but it leads somewhere ongoing. Upthread drafts your brand profile and suggests buyer questions, competitors, keywords and focus subreddits to edit; add your audit keywords and named competitors. Set your role and disclosure line, choose engines and a country, and the first discovery and visibility runs start, aiming at a ranked inbox inside three minutes. The extension is optional.

What you bring across

  • The keywords from your audit. Turn them into Upthread buyer questions, asked in Google AI Overviews and AI Mode and the API engines.
  • The competitors the audit named. Add them with aliases, so Upthread counts them in share of voice and spots them in Reddit threads.
  • The facts AI got wrong about you. Put the correct ones in your brand profile, which grounds every Upthread draft.

What works differently

  • SeekON's Pro Audit is a snapshot you pay for once. Upthread runs continuously: fresh Reddit threads every day, Google's AI answers checked twice a week and the API engines weekly. 2
  • SeekON's monitoring emails you when your AI ranking changes on up to 3 keywords. Upthread tracks up to 25 buyer questions on Starter and shows the Reddit threads behind the answers. 3
  • SeekON hands you a fix list for your own site. Upthread hands you replies for the Reddit threads AI cites: two drafts per thread, grounded in the thread, its top comments and its rules. 1
