Frequently Asked Questions: AI Sightline vs LLM Pulse
A note from the founder
Hey. I'm Mac. I built AI Sightline because every tool I could find in this category wanted a demo call before showing me a dashboard, and I just wanted to see how my brand showed up in ChatGPT.
The free plan is real, not a 14-day trial with a credit-card wall. The pricing is what it says on the page. If something breaks, I'm the one answering the email. If something's confusing, tell me and I'll fix it.
Start free, see if it is useful, decide from there.
