Zene vs teun.ai
teun.ai, from OnlineLabs in Amsterdam, runs one of the most visible free AI visibility checkers: in our October 4, 2026 Google snapshot (US), it ranked #1 for "free ai visibility checker" and #3 for "ai visibility checker". You type a company name and get a mention count, a GEO score, competitors, sentiment and the raw AI answer text - no signup for the first two scans.
Zene also offers a free, no-signup check, then adds a free tracking plan and paid multi-engine tracking. teun.ai is a quick check with low-cost weekly keyword tracking; Zene is tracking that drafts the fixes. Where we don't know something about teun.ai, this page says so.
Choose Zene if…
- You want a free plan that keeps tracking - 1 brand, 10 questions, ChatGPT + Gemini, no card

- You want drafts (brief, FAQ, schema, llms.txt) and an outreach list of cited sources where competitors appear

- You want a no-signup check that shows the raw AI answers with timestamps - two free scans, plus six free tools
- Your site runs on WordPress and you want a plugin
- You want Google AI Mode and AI Overviews checked, even on the free plan - Zene doesn't track them yet
- You prefer EUR billing, from EUR 29.95 a month
- You only need a quick read on where you stand, not a full tracking setup

Where teun.ai is stronger
The free first look. teun.ai asks only for a company name, detects your industry, and shows the actual AI answer text with timestamps next to a mention count and GEO score - for two scans, without an account. That makes the result feel concrete, which fits the pattern of the free checkers that rank best. It also ships a WordPress plugin, prices in euros from EUR 29.95 a month, and offers six free tools beyond the checker.
Where Zene is different
Zene's free check is the start, not the product. The free plan keeps tracking 10 questions on ChatGPT and Gemini with no card, and Pro covers 2 brands and 15 questions shared across them across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity and Grok, with competitor overtake alerts. Every scan on Pro ends in a prioritized action plan with drafts - a content brief, FAQ copy, schema JSON-LD and an llms.txt - plus an outreach list of cited sources. Zene publishes its methodology with 95% confidence ranges.
Pricing
Zene: Free, Pro $19/month, Growth $49/month, Agency $99/month ($190/$490/$990 yearly), in USD. teun.ai's pricing page lists Lite at EUR 29.95 a month (3 projects, 20 keywords tracked manually, 10 GEO prompts) and Pro at EUR 49.95 (10 projects, 50 keywords checked automatically every week, unlimited GEO prompts, and Claude). Every plan, the free one included, checks ChatGPT Search, Perplexity, Google AI Mode and AI Overviews; it doesn't list Gemini or Grok.
How to choose
Run your brand through both free checks. If a quick snapshot and a WordPress plugin cover what you need, teun.ai is a simple, low-cost choice. If you want ongoing tracking that includes Gemini and Grok, with the fixes drafted, start with Zene.
