Profound is built for large marketing teams: up to nine answer engines, daily runs, and agents that can publish to your CMS. XORV measures fewer engines today, publishes its prices from free, and keeps every change behind your approval.

At a glance
Who Profound fits
Enterprise marketing teams and agencies that want many engines, real prompt data and agents that publish, and that buy through a sales demo.
Who XORV fits
Brands and agencies that want buyer questions measured on four engines every day, with published prices from free and every change behind an approval.
The main difference
Profound covers more engines and its agents act more on their own. XORV shows what each number counts, keeps failed answers apart from zero, and publishes its prices.
Profound and XORV, row by row
Fifteen rows in five groups. Each cell was read on November 2, 2026 unless it shows another date, from the page its number opens. Where a company’s website says nothing, the cell reads “Not disclosed”, never “No”.
What is comparedProfoundXORV
Measurement
What one measurement is
A prompt, run daily on each tracked engine; each answer is stored once, with its text, citations and date.12
A buyer question, sent word for word to every engine in the plan.13
AI engines
Up to nine on Enterprise, among them ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot and Claude; three on the trial.23
ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overview on Core and Agency, with Claude and Google AI Mode coming. Free: ChatGPT. Pro: ChatGPT and Perplexity.14
Countries and languages
30+ languages and 150+ regions published; one of each on the trial, custom on Enterprise.32
The market and language you choose: one on Free and Pro, two on Core, ten on Agency.1415
It reads the answers people see on up to nine AI engines, not each engine’s API, across 150+ regions. 3
Real prompt data
Prompt Volumes, a licensed and anonymised set of prompts people actually send, helps choose which questions to track. 12
Enterprise security
SOC 2 Type II, and single sign-on with SAML or OIDC on Enterprise. 1011
From measurement to publishing
Agents and workflows can publish to several CMSs, with an optional human review before anything goes live. 6
What XORV does differently
Each screen below comes from Dunelight, a made-up coffee roaster in XORV’s example workspace. Its numbers follow XORV’s rules; no real company appears.
A failed answer is never a zero
Profound’s pages don’t say how failed or unreadable answers are counted. XORV marks each one “not measured” and leaves it out of the count, so a gap never reads as a loss.
Visibility reads “named in 12 of 44 measured answers”, with the questions, engines, market and date behind it, and two different scopes are never compared.
Profound lets an agent publish without a manual approval step if you choose. In XORV every change is proposed, approved, applied and then verified, and the approval can’t be switched off.
Talvara Coffee is named in 22 of 44 answers this run, Dunelight in 12. The gap is on delivery and subscription questions, where talvara.coffee is cited and Dunelight is often left out.
