On July 1, 2026 the longest of MiCA's transitional periods ran out, and whether a crypto company may serve a buyer in an EU country now turns on an authorization its regulator grants and ESMA's register lists. MiCA is the EU's crypto rulebook; ESMA's register is the EU regulator's list of authorized crypto providers.
We ranked these tools on where they ask buyers' questions from and whether they keep each market's answers and sources. The first entry is our own GEO Agent, so read it as our pick.
1. GEO Agent by Qvery: Your Buyers' Questions, Asked in Each Country You Choose
- Topics and questions written for you from your brand, industry and competitors.
- Each question asked every day on ChatGPT and Google AI Mode, in the countries you choose.
- Every answer and every citation, a page an answer points to, recorded.
- Visibility, share of voice (how often you are named against rivals) and sentiment against competitors, by topic and by country.
- The sources the engines cite for your topics, and where a competitor is named instead.
Pros
- Questions written for your brand and your rivals
- Both engines, daily, in the countries you choose
- Results split by country, next to competitors
Cons
- Two engines: ChatGPT and Google AI Mode
- Locations set by country
- Pricing not published
Weigh this one as ours: we are the vendor.
For a crypto company, the country setting is what this list ranks on. One question set runs in each market you are licensed in and each market's answers stay apart, so the UK answer about your fees never disappears into a global average.
It covers two engines and no others, and sets locations by country. It measures and shows where to work; reading each market's answers against your license register (your sheet of licensed markets) is work for your team, or for ours as a service.
Qvery's team also builds custom agents and does the optimization work with you: for a crypto company, the check of each market's answers against your license register and the work on the pages and listings the answers lean on. That is a service quoted for the job, not a feature of the GEO Agent.
2. Profound: Regions Down to the State, Languages by Country
- Regions set as a country, a state or province, or a city.
- Languages picked together with a country, per category.
- Up to nine answer engines on the custom plan, ChatGPT and Google AI Mode among them.
- All-time history, CSV and JSON exports on the custom plan.
Pros
- A state or a city as the place a question is asked from
- A language set for each country
- Exports for every market's answers
Cons
- No published price for the plan that asks several markets
- The trial runs one region, one language and Profound's own prompts
- Google AI Mode only on the custom plan
Profound documents the finest location setting on this list. Its analytics setup guide lets a region be a country, a state or province, or a city, and every language is picked together with a country, so the same category can run in German from Germany and in French from France.
For a crypto company whose US availability differs by state, running questions from a state is the setting the other seven do not document.
Everything that makes Profound fit a licensed business sits on the custom plan: your contract sets the regions, languages and prompts, Google AI Mode is on that plan only, and so are the exports.
The trial runs one region, one language and a prompt set Profound recommends, so it shows you the dashboard rather than your markets.

3. Peec AI: A Country on Every Prompt, Markets Set Without a Sales Call
- Each prompt runs from the country you set as its location.
- Prompts suggested per market: the locations and languages you pick.
- Every chat stored with its model, its location, the full answer and its sources.
- All chats exportable.
- Google AI Mode and ChatGPT among the models.
Pros
- The asking country kept on every stored answer
- Markets defined as a country and a language
- Several countries without a sales call, on Advanced
Cons
- One country until the $495 plan
- Three models per plan below the custom one
- Not stated whether one question in four countries counts as one prompt or four
Peec AI's prompt setup asks for a Location: the country the prompt runs from. Its own help page says different locations can produce different answers.
Prompt suggestions are built per market, and a market is the location and language you pick, so a German-language set for Germany sits apart from an English one for the UK.
Every chat keeps the country it was asked from beside the full answer, the model and the sources, and the whole history exports. That export is the per-market record a compliance lead can read in a spreadsheet.
What holds it back is the plan: country limits are set per project, and more than one country starts on Advanced at $495 a month.

4. Scrunch: A Country per Prompt, and Its Own Advice on Language
- The country set on each prompt, and results filtered by country.
- Country-specific answers on ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews.
- Prompts written in any language, with responses and citations recorded.
- Google AI Mode and unlimited countries on the custom plan.
Pros
- A country on every prompt
- Answers compared country by country
Cons
- One country and one language on Core
- Google AI Mode only on the custom plan
- Google AI Mode is not among the engines its FAQ names for country-specific results
Scrunch sets the country when you create a prompt and lets you filter every answer by country. Its FAQ says the country-specific results come from engines with geolocated search and names ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews; Google AI Mode is not on that list.
Core is a single country in a single language without Google AI Mode, so a several-market setup on both engines is the custom plan.
Reddit discussion of Scrunch is sparse.
5. Ahrefs Brand Radar: One Check per Question, Engine and Market
- Custom prompts with the assistants, locations and refresh you pick.
- Google AI Mode and ChatGPT among seven assistants.
- Each check is one question asked once on one assistant in one location.
- Brand Radar's prompt index from Ahrefs' own database beside your own questions.
Pros
- The plainest arithmetic on the list
- Both engines on any package
- One or more locations per question
Cons
- Languages not covered in its custom-prompt help
- Checks multiply by every market and engine
- The prompt index is Ahrefs' own database, not your buyers' questions
If your marketing team already works in Ahrefs, its custom prompts are the sensible first stop, beside the rest of your search data. You pick the assistants, Google AI Mode and ChatGPT among them, set one or more locations for each question, and choose daily, weekly or monthly runs.
Ahrefs prices this by the check, and its help center defines one: one prompt run, on one assistant, in one location.
Twenty questions a day on both engines in four markets is 4,800 checks a month, inside the $100 package, which Ahrefs sells on its own to teams that only track their own prompts.
Independent Reddit discussion of Brand Radar is thin.
6. Rankscale: Every Region on Every Plan
- All regions on every plan.
- ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Copilot among the engines.
- Runs from hourly to monthly.
- Credits that renew monthly, a query typically using a quarter of one.
Pros
- No plan rations markets
- Both engines on every plan
- The four-market setup fits Pro in a 30-day month
Cons
- Where a region's questions run from is not spelled out
- Languages not stated as a setting
- Two reviews on G2
Rankscale does not ration markets. Its pricing table lists all regions on every plan, and its facts page describes Google AI Mode coverage worldwide, localizable by countries and markets.
Pro's 1,200 credits are sold as up to 4,800 answers, exactly twenty questions a day on two engines in four markets in a 30-day month, with nothing to spare for a 31-day month or a rerun.
What its pages leave out is where in a region the questions run from and whether a question set can carry its own language.
Independent discussion of Rankscale is thin.
7. OtterlyAI: One Country per Prompt, Every Price on the Page
- Each prompt tied to one country.
- Unlimited countries and languages on every plan.
- ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and Copilot as standard.
- Google AI Mode, Gemini and Claude as add-ons.
Pros
- The clearest market arithmetic on the list
- Countries and languages unlimited
- Every self-serve price published
Cons
- Each market uses its own prompt slot
- Google AI Mode costs extra
- No documented setting finer than a country
OtterlyAI is the most explicit about what a market costs. Its help center says each prompt is tied to one country, so the same question in the US and the UK uses two prompt slots. Countries and languages are unlimited on every plan, which means the only limit is slots.
Twenty questions in four markets are 80 slots: Standard at $189 plus $59 for the Google AI Mode add-on, $248 a month, and every self-serve plan and add-on price is on its pricing page.

8. AthenaHQ: One Market on Starter, the Rest on Contract
- 11 models on Starter, Google AI Mode among them.
- One credit buys one AI answer.
- CSV export on Starter.
- One region and one language on Starter, several on the custom plan.
Pros
- Both engines on the self-serve plan
- A credit is an answer, which makes the budget easy
Cons
- One market on Starter
- Several markets and languages only on a custom plan
Starter covers a single region and a single language, and multiple countries are a custom-plan feature.
Starter is a good way to measure one market well: 3,600 credits buy 3,600 answers a month across 11 models with Google AI Mode among them, with a CSV export. For a second license, you are in a sales conversation.

What Qvery Does Beside These Tools
At Qvery, we help crypto companies stop spending compliance time reading what assistants say in each market, with custom AI agents that read every answer about your company against your license register, flag the sentences that disagree and draft the corrected line for your compliance lead to approve.
Qvery's agents publish or send nothing until a person on your team approves it.
The GEO Agent keeps the daily answers and their sources together for that review.
Put Your Market Checks to Work
Your compliance team shows us how it checks an assistant's answer against a licensed market today, and we agree what the agents may read and change. Two weeks after access is in place, a first working agent is checking answers against your own market records.
Frequently asked questions
Can't someone on our team just check with a VPN?
For a spot check, yes. A VPN makes a browser appear to connect from another country, and ChatGPT reads a general location from where the buyer connects, so a VPN gets closer than typing the country into the question. One reading proves little, because answers change from one asking to the next. A tool asks every day and keeps the record.
Should we track questions in each market's own language?
Yes, where the market has one. Plan one question set per market and language.
Do crypto buyers ask AI assistants at all?
Some do. In a Forbes Advisor survey of 2,000 US adults who own crypto, run in July 2026, nearly one in five said they use AI tools to inform their crypto investing decisions.
How often should we look at the answers?
As often as your compliance lead reviews the register. The tools ask every day, and one day's answer can change at the next asking, so read the week's record rather than a single day.
What should we do when an answer names us in a market we do not serve?
Open the pages it cited. If one is yours, correct it and keep the register row as the source of truth; if it is someone else's, a person contacts the site's owner. Then watch that question in that market for a few weeks; one corrected page does not change every answer overnight.
Who in a crypto company should own this check?
Whoever owns the license register, usually the compliance lead or the head of operations. They approve every change to your own pages before it goes live.
Does paying more always buy more assistant coverage?
No. Peec AI keeps 3 models on Starter, Pro, and Advanced while the questions grow from 50 to 150 to 350, so a bigger plan buys room, not assistants.
Can a free plan cover ongoing tracking?
Rarely. AthenaHQ's free Essential plan has 300 credits, one answer each, which a daily question set on two engines uses up in days.
Do we need a full SEO subscription just to track answers?
No. Ahrefs sells its question packages on their own, from $50 a month for 2,500 checks.
How many questions does our company need?
As many as your licensed markets need, not as many as a plan allows. This list prices twenty questions in four markets as an example; a plan's limit is room, not a target.
What if two tools give us different results?
Compare the saved answers asked from the same place at the same time. Peec AI keeps each answer with its model and location, so two reports from different countries or days describe different answers, not a wrong one.
Can we collect answers more often than we review them?
Yes. Rankscale runs from hourly to monthly, so the tool can collect daily while your compliance lead reads weekly; more runs use more of the allowance.
Are credits comparable across these tools?
No. On AthenaHQ one credit buys one answer, while a Rankscale query typically uses a quarter of a credit, so compare answers, not credits.
Will Google AI Mode cost more when we upgrade?
On OtterlyAI, yes: the add-on is $9 a month on Lite, $59 on Standard, and $149 on Premium.
Does tracking more assistants leave fewer answers for each?
Yes, when they share an allowance. AthenaHQ's Starter has 3,600 credits across 11 models, one per answer, so every added assistant draws on the same pool.
Which tools keep each market's answers apart?
Peec AI keeps the asking country on every stored answer, OtterlyAI ties each question to one country, and Scrunch sets a country per question and filters every answer by it.
Can one plan cover several EU languages?
On Peec AI, yes: a market is a country and a language you pick, so a German set for Germany sits apart from an English one for the UK. Scrunch's Core has one language, with more on its custom plan.
