The honest take
Athena HQ is sales-led. Pricing isn't on their website and you need to book a demo before you can try the product.
SignalKit is product-led. Sign up, paste your prompts, see results within minutes. Pricing is on the homepage: $5 free credit, then $1/prompt/month with volume discounts at scale.
Both tools cover the core job: track how LLMs mention your brand, score visibility, watch competitors. The difference is whether you can try it today or next week after a sales call.
