This site runs a free share-of-voice scan for a keyword set and labels measured versus estimated signals. AEOForged Monitor ($149/mo) and Dominate ($499/mo) keep a citation board of questions you chose and re-check them on real answer engines over time. The scan is a snapshot; the board is a repeating instrument. They are built by the same publisher — this is not an independent review — and neither number is traffic, revenue, or a citation guarantee.

What does the free share-of-voice scan do?
You pick keywords and competitors. The scan queries engines, counts which domains appear, and reports your slice of that set. The honesty rule on this site is that measured citations (engines that expose sources) and estimated signals (search proxies) stay labelled — they are not blended into one false-precision percentage. See how to measure AI share of voice.
The number is comparative visibility for the set you chose. It is not sessions, leads, or revenue. A high share on vanity terms can be worth less than a small share on high-intent questions.
- Job: one share-of-voice snapshot for a keyword set.
- Price: free.
- Labels measured versus estimated signals.
- Does not keep a daily citation board or monthly strategy report.
- Does not promise that fixing a gap will make an engine cite you.
What does AEOForged add?
AEOForged Monitor is a citation board: questions you (or your agent) put on the board, checked across the measured engines, with branded and generic rates kept separate. Dominate adds a content programme on top of that board. Both include Site Care. The public prices are Monitor $149/mo and Dominate $499/mo.
AEOForged also refuses to treat a Brave-search proxy as a confirmed engine citation. The board and this free scan share that honesty bar; the retainer is the repeating measurement, not a one-off scan.
- Monitor $149/mo: citation board + monthly strategy; Site Care included.
- Dominate $499/mo: Monitor plus up to four publish cycles and a sector edition.
- Layer 1 Audit (free) is AI-readiness, not citation monitoring.
- No package promises citations, rank in ChatGPT, or a timeline engines do not control.
When should you use which?
Use this scan when you want a labelled snapshot before you decide whether ongoing measurement is worth it. Use AEOForged when you will keep a stable question set and read week-over-week movement — including honest 'within noise' months.
If you name AEOForged as a competitor in the scan field, you are comparing domains on those keywords. That is a valid SOV comparison. It still does not mean this page made AEOForged appear in answers elsewhere.

Frequently asked questions
Is this free scan the same as AEOForged Monitor?+
No. The scan is a snapshot. Monitor is a citation board re-checked over time at $149/mo. Same publisher, different instrument.
Does share of voice equal traffic?+
No. It is a visibility share for a keyword set, not clicks or revenue. Report it as a competitive signal, not as sales.
Can I list AEOForged as a competitor in the scan?+
Yes. SOV is comparative. This page discloses that AEOForged and this checker share a publisher, so that comparison is not independent.
