Surface marks show where New Reward checks visibility. They are not partner badges or outcome guarantees.
Every AI-visibility tool can show you a dashboard. The useful comparison is what happens after the dashboard: who turns the gap into shipped work, and can you inspect the result? Here is the field as their own public pages describe it.
Semrush, Profound, Scrunch AI, Yext Scout, and BrightEdge all track brand presence across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI surfaces. The datasets differ in depth and packaging, but every one of them can tell you that you have a visibility gap.
Semrush, Profound, and Scrunch stop at recommendations — their own documentation says so. Yext executes inside its listings network; BrightEdge's Autopilot automates template-level technical SEO. None of them ships arbitrary content, site, and structured-data fixes against the specific gaps they find.
Across all five, the customer-facing proof is a dashboard or a report. If you need to show a CEO what was shipped and what it changed, you are assembling that story yourself. That gap — score to shipped fix to inspectable evidence — is the job New Reward was built for.

They monitor how AI assistants and search surfaces (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews) mention, cite, or skip a brand, and report scores, sentiment, and prompt-level rankings. Most then hand your team recommendations to act on.

New Reward runs a proof loop. A visibility score finds the gap across Google and AI answers. An approved action ships. The result is inspectable evidence, not a dashboard recommendation or a monthly report you have to take on trust.
