Build your plan

Yes. A 7-day free trial covering ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, and Microsoft Copilot, with no card required at signup. The other engines (Perplexity, Google AI Mode, Bing AI Overview, and Google Gemini) unlock on a paid plan. You can downgrade or cancel from workspace settings any time. We don't refund paid subscriptions, so we recommend using the trial to validate ziptie.ai fits your workflow before upgrading.

What's in it: 25 monitored prompts on a daily refresh.

What isn't: the API and MCP surface and the add-ons (UGC Impact Analysis, Content Generation) start on a paid plan, and the trial is once per person.

Nothing is tiered: you build your own plan from prompt count, refresh frequency, and engine coverage, with optional add-ons on top. Teammates and projects are unlimited, with no per-user charge. The pricing page shows current numbers. Longer billing periods carry a discount vs. monthly: 3 months -5%, 6 months -10%, annual -20%. For unusual configurations or large prompt volumes, see custom plans below.

These never appear on an invoice:

• Seats, projects and competitors. Unlimited on every plan, with no per-user charge, no fee per brand or client project, and no cap on the competitors you track.
• Exports, client reports and share links. CSV, Excel, the PDF snapshot and white-label client reports, shared through a link that needs no account.
• Google Search Console. Connect a property you already own, read-only, and see its clicks and impressions next to your AI data.
• Google and Bing organic results. They come with the Google AI Overviews and Bing AI Overview engines at no extra cost.
• The check summary email. It arrives when scheduled checks finish, with the change since the previous check.

What you pay for is the prompts you monitor, how often they run and how many engines run them, plus any add-on you switch on. The pricing page shows the numbers.

Prompts checked, not checks run. Your plan buys a number of prompt slots per refresh frequency. Every monitored prompt holds a slot, and a prompt checked in the current window keeps holding it until that window resets, even after you pause or delete it. A prompt on a daily project takes one daily slot and then runs every day at no further cost. That's why the price scales with cadence rather than with usage.

The slots sit in three pools, one per refresh frequency, and each resets on its own clock: daily at midnight UTC, weekly on Monday at midnight UTC, monthly on the 1st of the month at midnight UTC.

• Pausing a prompt before it has been checked in the current window frees its slot right away, so you can swap it for a different prompt without buying more.
• A project can only be set to a cadence your plan has capacity in. Buy no weekly capacity and Weekly won't be offered as an option.

There are no credit packs, top-ups, or overage charges to buy. If you need more room, you change the plan.

US dollars only. Every plan and add-on is priced and charged in USD, with no local-currency pricing.

Listed prices exclude tax. Checkout asks for your billing address, and where VAT or sales tax applies it is calculated from that address and added on top of the price, so you see the full total before you pay.

Buying for a company? Add your company's legal name and VAT number or other business tax ID at checkout, and it appears on your invoices.

Yes. If the standard configurator doesn't fit your prompt volume, check frequency, or engine mix, send us a note with your numbers and we'll quote a plan that does.

A quoted plan is also what carries single sign-on through your own identity provider, over SAML 2.0 or OpenID Connect.

Yes. ziptie.ai charges for the prompts you monitor and the engines you run them on. Seats, projects and competitors are unlimited, so a new client costs only its prompts. Every project in a workspace draws on one shared pool of daily, weekly and monthly prompts, so capacity moves with your roster.

• A project per client. Each client gets its own prompts, competitors, country and language.
• Client viewers. Invite a client as a Guest with Viewer access to their own project, or give each client a workspace of its own when their data must never meet.
• Client reports with your branding. Set your logo, agency name and accent colour once per workspace, and add the client's logo and name to each project. Each project can then produce an AI Search Visibility Report as a PDF, with the full dataset in Excel. The AI drafts the summary and recommendations, you review every draft before generating, and the draft keeps only sentences whose numbers come from the report data. The PDF carries no ziptie.ai branding.
• Share links. Share a PDF, a client report or any export through a link that needs no account. Each link works until the export is 14 days old.
• One API token per project. With the API & MCP add-on, each token reaches one project, so ten clients through the API means ten tokens.

Reports are made when someone asks for one: no report is scheduled or emailed. There is no custom domain for share links, so the share page lives on ziptie.ai and keeps the ziptie.ai mark next to your logos. And there is no cross-client rollup: every client is its own project, and no view adds projects together. How agencies use ziptie.ai covers both setups and what a roster costs.

Yes. The ziptie.ai API & MCP add-on (+$10/mo) exposes every prompt, response, mention, citation, sentiment score, and competitor metric over two surfaces:

• REST API at api.ziptie.ai - for BI pipelines, internal dashboards, or scheduled jobs that poll for visibility changes. Tokens are created per project with a read, write, or admin scope.
• MCP server at api.ziptie.ai/mcp - same data, same auth, exposed as Model Context Protocol tools. Drop the URL into Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code, or any client that speaks streamable-HTTP MCP.

Native CSV, Excel, and PDF export, white-label client reports, and public share links are available on every plan, no API required.
