Profound Pricing: What You Can Compare Without a Price List

Only agencies get a fixed price: Agency Growth costs $99 a month plus $399 per client workspace. As a brand, you compare Profound on what it documents: the trial quota, the engines, the query method and the features. Data as of October 30, 2026, and the agency tab of the pricing page as of October 31, 2026.
Profound pricing in 2026: trial, Enterprise and Agency Growth
Profound offers brands two plans, and only the trial has a fixed scope. The trial costs nothing, runs 50 prompts daily for 7 days on ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews, and allows 1 region and 1 language with unlimited seats. According to the pricing page, trial users get a recommended prompt set for their industry and cannot customize their prompts. The trial has no history, no export and no API.
Enterprise has custom pricing, a tailored prompt tracking plan and up to 9 answer engines. The pricing page lists ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, DeepSeek, Claude, Google AI Overviews and Exa Search. The contract sets how many regions, languages, prompts and categories you can use, according to the Profound documentation.
According to the agency tab of the pricing page, Agency Growth costs $99 a month, but ongoing tracking only comes with client workspaces. Each client workspace costs $399 a month and runs 100 prompts daily on ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. With one workspace, that is $498, or about 9,000 answers a month and about $55 per 1,000 answers if each prompt runs once a day per platform. The plan adds 10 pitch workspaces a month with 25 prompts each for 7 days, and 400 credits per client workspace for the AI Marketer and its agents.

What you can compare is the documented scope. The trial covers 3 engines with 50 prompts, about the quota of an entry plan at tools with public prices. Enterprise covers up to 9 engines, including Exa Search. For a real price comparison as a brand, you need a quote for your prompt count, engines and regions.
Query method, location and security
Profound queries the user interface, according to a vendor article. In its comparison with Scrunch, Profound writes that it runs all prompts through the front-end browser, not through API calls. The documentation itself does not describe the method, so the table marks it as stated in a vendor blog.
You add regions as a country, state or province, or city, and languages as a language plus country. How many depends on the contract. Germany is not named as an example, but country regions can be chosen freely.
According to the pricing page, Enterprise includes SSO/SAML and SOC 2 compliance. According to its privacy policy, Profound is hosted in the US. A data processing agreement is not mentioned.
