What Profound costs an agency
Agency Growth charges a base fee and then $399 a month for each full client workspace with 100 prompts. Here is the total for 3, 5 and 10 clients, next to Placton’s Agency plan with the same 100 prompts per client.

What the higher price buys on Profound: 10 pitch workspaces a month to audit prospects, CSV and JSON exports for client workspaces, 400 agent credits per client and every prompt checked daily. Placton has none of those; it gives each client its own workspace and competitors, unlimited team members and all five of its AI platforms under one invoice.
* On paid plans. ChatGPT is read on chatgpt.com in every country Placton tracks except Venezuela and Puerto Rico, where it is asked weekly through its API.
Questions to ask before a Profound demo
The pricing page leaves the key numbers to the sales call. These six questions get you a price you can compare.
What does Enterprise cost, and for how long do I commit?
The pricing page shows no price and no yearly terms, so the total and the contract length only come out on the call.
Which of the nine answer engines are in my package?
Enterprise lists up to nine engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, DeepSeek, Anthropic Claude, Google AI Overviews and Exa Search). Ask which ones your price includes, and note that Grok is not on the list.
How many prompts, regions and languages do I get?
All three are “custom” on Enterprise. The trial gives you one region and one language, so check the markets you need.
Can I keep my own prompts from the trial?
The trial runs 50 prompts recommended for your industry, which cannot be edited, and keeps no history.
How are AI Marketer credits used, and what happens when they run out?
Agents spend credits each time they run. Beyond the plan, Profound offers overage billing or a pause, by choice.
Does the trial need a card?
The pricing page does not say. Placton’s trial needs no card, if you want to compare without one.
Profound review: who it is built for
Not a long-term test: our reading of Profound’s own pages on . In short, it is built for large teams that buy through procurement, and it shows in the pricing.
Where Profound is strong
Up to nine answer engines on Enterprise, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Copilot and DeepSeek among them, refreshed daily.
Answers captured in the browser rather than through model APIs, like the answers people see.
Enterprise extras that large teams ask for: SSO/SAML, SOC 2 compliance, an API, CSV and JSON exports and support with a 24-hour SLA.
More than tracking: AI Marketer agents, Prompt Volumes and Agent Analytics (AI-sourced traffic).
Where it is harder to buy
No public price for brands: after the trial, ongoing tracking means a demo and a custom contract.
The trial uses prompts chosen for your industry, so you cannot test the 50 questions your own buyers ask.
Grok is not listed on any plan, and Claude needs Enterprise; the trial covers ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews.
For agencies, each full client workspace costs $399 a month, more than any plan in our comparison of tools under $100 a month.

Questions about Profound pricing
About Placton itself? Read the full FAQs or see every plan and price.
How much does Profound cost?
For brands, Profound lists a free 7-day trial and an Enterprise plan with custom pricing, sold through a demo; on October 24, 2026, no monthly or yearly price was published. For agencies, Agency Growth costs $99 a month plus $399 a month for each full client workspace, and Agency Enterprise is custom.
Is there a free version of Profound?
Only the trial: 50 recommended prompts a day for 7 days on ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews, with limited AI Marketer credits and no exports or history. There is no free plan that keeps running after it.
Does the Profound free trial need a credit card?
Its pricing page does not say. It starts the trial with a “Get Started” button and describes it as being “for companies who want to trial Profound before getting a demo”. Placton’s 7-day trial needs no card.
How much does Profound cost for agencies?
Agency Growth is $99 a month with 10 pitch workspaces a month and 5 agency seats; each full client workspace, with 100 prompts and 400 agent credits, adds $399 a month, and 5 more pitch workspaces cost $199 a month. Three clients come to $1,296 a month.
Does Profound offer yearly pricing or discounts?
The pricing page lists no yearly prices and no discount on any plan. Contract terms for Enterprise are agreed with its sales team.
What are Profound credits?
Credits pay for its AI Marketer agents. The pricing page does not say how many credits each run spends. The trial has limited credits and Agency Growth includes 400 a month per client workspace; more needs an Enterprise package, with overage billing or a pause when you reach the limit.
Is Profound worth the price?
For a large company that needs SSO, an API and up to nine engines checked daily, it is built for exactly that. For a small team that wants to start this week with its own prompts and a known monthly price, the demo and custom contract are a hurdle, and a self-serve tool fits better.
What does Placton cost by comparison?
Starter is $59 a month for 20 prompts, Growth $129 for 75 and Scale $299 for 250, with 15% off yearly and ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Claude, Perplexity and Grok on every plan. Agencies pay from $77 a month for 3 clients. There is no API, export or SSO.
