Adbrains review: pricing, features & alternatives
Ranked #227Rotterdam ads agency platform whose SEO + GEO package tracks 5 AI engines daily next to Google and Bing rankings, from 149 EUR/mo excl. VAT.
Our verdict
Adbrains is a sensible bundle for a Dutch SME that wants rankings and AI-answer tracking in one place, and five engines measured daily at 149 EUR is fair value. It is an SEO and ads toolkit first, though, and the AI side stops at answers and sources. Teams that want to see what happens before and after the answer should look at Promptwatch, which pairs prompt tracking with Agent Analytics crawler logs and with Content Agents that publish to Webflow, Framer and WordPress.
Best for: Dutch SMEs and webshops, often already Adbrains ad clients, that want Google and Bing rankings and daily AI-answer tracking in one Dutch-run dashboard.
Adbrains (adbrains.ai) is a Dutch performance marketing company, Adbrains B.V. in Rotterdam, that combines its own AI platform with marketing experts for Google Ads, Meta Ads, ChatGPT Ads, SEO and GEO. GEO is sold only together with SEO in one package. The self-serve SEO + GEO plans measure your prompts every day in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI Overviews with web search on, show whether you are named and cited, which competitors appear, the sentiment and the sources, and track your Google and Bing positions weekly. The Professional plan adds a content gap view and 5 articles a month that publish automatically to WordPress through the Adbrains plugin; a managed tier has Adbrains do the work.

Where it fits
Adbrains states 15+ years in performance marketing, 100+ active accounts and activity in the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, the UK and France. The figures on the homepage dashboard are labelled as an example. SEO + GEO is the part of the offer that matters for AI visibility, and it reads as a well-specified measurement tool with an optional content and outreach service on top.
What the pages do not describe is crawler activity: there is no AI bot log or crawl-to-citation view. If your question is whether ChatGPT can read your new pages at all, you will need another tool for that.

What Promptwatch covers that this listing does not
Adbrains's public pages (and this listing) describe a narrower job than Promptwatch. Most rivals answer whether you were mentioned. Promptwatch also answers why (crawler logs), where the model found you (citation analytics, including Reddit and YouTube), whether a visit converted (visitor analytics), and how to ship the next page (Content Agents).
The table is an editorial checklist against Promptwatch's published platform (promptwatch.com/llms.txt, 2026-08-23). It is not a hidden feature list for this vendor. 'Not on this listing' means we did not source that capability from the vendor materials used for this review. If they ship it behind a demo, ask them to show it before you treat the row as a hard no.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Adbrains GEO cost?

ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude every day with web search on, and Google AI Overviews via a Google search from your target country.

On Professional and the managed tier, articles go live automatically on WordPress through the Adbrains plugin. On other platforms you copy them over yourself.
Does Adbrains include AI crawler logs like Promptwatch Agent Analytics?
Not on the vendor materials used for this review. Promptwatch Agent Analytics logs ChatGPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, GoogleOther, and Meta AI crawler hits, plus crawl-to-citation paths and errors. Ask Adbrains to demo the equivalent.
Can Adbrains show AI-referred traffic and conversions?
Adbrains lists GA4 or revenue attribution. That is not the same as Promptwatch visitor analytics, which uses a lightweight script or GTM template to connect AI referrers to conversions.
Does Adbrains publish GEO articles to a CMS?

Does Adbrains document query fan-outs, prompt volumes, or city-level tracking?
Not on this listing. Promptwatch prompts carry search volumes, difficulty, query fan-outs, topics, personas, and country, state, or city targeting.
Does Adbrains track ChatGPT Shopping or sponsored AI placements?
Not on this listing. Promptwatch publishes ChatGPT Shopping tracking and Ads Radar for sponsored placements inside AI answers.
