Upthread vs SISTRIX AI
SISTRIX AI measures how your brand appears in Google AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT and Perplexity, inside the SISTRIX SEO toolbox and free during its beta. Upthread works on the Reddit threads those answers cite: it ranks them, drafts a reply you post, and tracks it.

Why people look beyond SISTRIX AI.
SISTRIX is an SEO toolbox for Google and Amazon, and its AI Visibility product measures where and how your brand appears in AI answers: mentions, rankings, sentiment and the sources behind them, across platforms and with history, in the same interface as its Google data. 1
Plans cost 119 euros a month on Start, 239 on Plus, 419 on Professional and 799 on Premium, plus taxes, and can be cancelled monthly; you can try it free for 14 days. The AI tools are included in every package for now, and SISTRIX reserves the right to price them separately later. 2
Its Prompt Monitoring tracks your own prompts in Google AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT and Perplexity, gives you and every competitor it detects a daily AI Visibility Index, and shows the third-party sources AI cites where your pages are missing. 3
Upthread looks at one of those third-party sources, Reddit, and does the work there. It ranks the Reddit threads AI answers cite and Google ranks for your keywords, drafts two replies per thread grounded in the subreddit's rules, and tracks each reply after you post it.

Switching from SISTRIX AI.
Upthread needs no SEO project to begin: enter your website and it drafts a brand profile, then suggests buyer questions, competitors, keywords and focus subreddits for you to edit, so your SISTRIX prompts and keywords fit right in. Add your role and disclosure line, choose engines and a country, and the first discovery and visibility runs start, with a ranked inbox targeted inside three minutes. The extension is optional.
What you bring across
- Your prompt sets. The buying questions in them become Upthread buyer questions, asked in Google AI Overviews and AI Mode and the API engines.
- The competitors SISTRIX detects in your answers, entered with aliases, so share of voice per engine counts each one.
- The keywords you already track for Google. Upthread uses them to find the Reddit threads that rank in Google results for your market.
What works differently
- SISTRIX shows which third-party sources AI cites where your pages are missing. Upthread keeps the Reddit threads among those sources, adds the ones ranking in Google, and ranks each by priority. 3
- SISTRIX gives you a daily AI Visibility Index across four platforms. Upthread checks Google AI Overviews and AI Mode twice a week and ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude weekly through their APIs. 3
- SISTRIX points you to the content and brands already cited, to uncover optimisation potential. Upthread's next step is a Reddit reply: two drafts per thread, grounded in the thread and its rules, posted by you. 1
