What outshone does differently

Otterly.AI and outshone both check what AI tools say when buyers ask for a tool like yours. They differ in what you get each week, and in who does the work.

Done for you, a few jobs at a time. Otterly.AI shows you where you’re mentioned, and you decide what to do. We pick up to five jobs a week that would help you get named, like asking a “best of” list to add your product, or fixing a pricing page AI tools can’t read, and do most of each job. You approve anything before it’s sent or published, and outreach goes from your own email address.

Plain words and honest counts. We ask each question many times, and tell you how often you’re named, with a likely range. We never promise you a spot in AI answers. See how we measure.

Every AI tool on every plan. ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews are all included, plus your Google rankings. There are no add-ons.
