Alternative #1
Vibe code your own Profound
Build a personal single-engine keyword tracker instead, but keep paying for Profound if you need real multi-engine AEO scale. The single biggest catch is that scraping 10 protected AI chat front-ends reliably daily without getting blocked requires an enterprise proxy and browser-automation infrastructure. Score: 15/100 (Don't bother).
