Our Verdict
For dedicated AI visibility tracking, Peec AI is the better starting point - it's purpose-built for AI monitoring while Semrush's AI features are bolt-ons to a traditional SEO platform. Semrush makes sense only if you're already paying for the SEO suite and want basic AI Overviews data without an additional subscription. For teams that need both monitoring depth and a clear optimization path, Omnia (9.6/10) covers what neither Peec AI nor Semrush offers.
