The switch
Why teams move from Profound.
-
1 · Before
One engine, one seat
An entry plan that only watches ChatGPT, for one person, doesn’t tell a client how they look across AI search.
-
2 · The switch
Three assistants from day one
Add your questions once. Serpify asks ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Mode every week, and checks AI Overviews with your rankings.
-
3 · After
The whole team, the whole picture
Unlimited users, AI answers and Google rankings in one plan, priced for agencies.
