Does Saidly track Claude and Grok when Otterly does not by default?
Yes. Saidly tracks Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok by default, all grounded on the live web. Otterly's default coverage centers on ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, and Google AI Overviews; in Otterly, Claude is available via API and Grok is not tracked by default (public information as of June 2026; check their site for the latest). The two tools simply made different bets: Otterly leans toward search-adjacent engines, Saidly toward the four flagship chat assistants people talk to directly.
What does Saidly measure that a ranking tool does not?
Saidly is sentiment-first. For every report it gives a 0 to 100 score per model, a representative quote from each model's answer, the recurring themes across answers, the sources each model cited, and your share of voice against competitors. Pro and Business plans add two lenses: "model-only" (what a model believes without the web) and "compare" (live web versus model-only, showing the gap). A ranking-focused tool tells you whether you appear; sentiment tells you whether what they say is positive, negative, or mixed, and why. To understand the categories, read the AI visibility monitoring guide.
