The AthenaHQ alternative with transparent pricing and built-in tools

7-day free trial. No credit card required.

More tools, lower price, no credit guesswork

AthenaHQ is a capable AEO and GEO platform. But credit-based pricing, Enterprise-only API access, and limited optimization tools leave gaps. Superlines fills them.

01

Lower starting price, more included

Superlines starts at €89/month — less than a third of AthenaHQ's regular $295/month Self-Serve plan. Even with AthenaHQ's 67%-off first-month promo ($95), Superlines delivers more built-in tools at a consistently lower price point.

02

API & MCP on every plan

Every Superlines plan includes full REST API access and a production-ready MCP server so you can integrate AI Search data into your workflows and AI agents. AthenaHQ reserves API access for Enterprise customers and does not offer an MCP server.

03

Transparent prompt-based pricing

Superlines charges per tracked prompt — you know exactly what you're paying for. AthenaHQ uses a credit-based system (3,600 credits on Self-Serve) where different actions consume different amounts of credits, making costs harder to predict.

04

Schema Optimizer & Site Crawl built in

Superlines includes a Schema Optimizer for structured data markup and automated Site Crawl & Audit to ensure your site is AI-ready. AthenaHQ focuses on monitoring and recommendations but doesn't offer these technical optimization tools.

05

LLM Keywords & AI Bot Analytics

Superlines discovers new prompt opportunities through LLM Keywords Discovery and provides AI Bot Analytics to show how AI crawlers interact with your site. These capabilities give you a unique edge that AthenaHQ doesn't offer.

06

7-day free trial to prove value first

Every Superlines plan includes a 7-day free trial — no credit card required. AthenaHQ offers a discounted first month ($95 instead of $295) but no free trial period to evaluate the platform risk-free.
