What you actually get
GrowthManager.ai
$999/mo
Strong fit
Managed AI visibility. We publish 50+ pages a month to your domain, track citations across 4 AI engines, run backlinks and Reddit/Quora seeding. Dedicated human exec.
AI visibility monitoring tools
$99–$499/mo
Weak fit
Track where you appear in AI answers. Useful dashboard, but you still need to ship the content, backlinks, and structured data yourself.
Generalist content agencies
$3K–$10K/mo
Weak fit
Strong on copy, weak on AI optimization. Most still write for Google SERPs, not LLM citations. No platform monitoring, no schema, no llms.txt.
In-house team
$7K–$15K/mo (loaded)
Partial
Hire content + technical SEO + a marketing engineer. Highest control, longest time-to-first-page. Hard to staff at the intersection of GEO + content.
