Best AthenaHQ Alternatives

AthenaHQ's pitch is intelligence beyond dashboards - hallucination detection and automated content recommendations - at $295/month after a free tier. Alternatives win on three axes: price (Peec, Otterly), scale and evidence (Profound), or staying inside a suite you already pay for (Semrush AI Visibility from $99/month).
