No official claim of AI-search citation tracking, answer-engine visibility, or generative-search optimization was found.

Value accessibility
Buying
How easy it is for a team to reach value relative to pricing, setup complexity, and required expertise.
Dragon Metrics
Transparent entry pricing, annual discount, feature access across plans, and a no-card trial; high absolute starting price limits accessibility for very small users.
Public pricing starts at $99/month, annual billing is $82/month for Starter, and the FAQ says annual subscriptions receive two months free: https://www.dragonmetrics.com/pricing/
Qwoted
Free entry is available, with paid Pro and custom Teams options.

Dragon Metrics
A 30-day full-feature trial and free API access are available, but no permanent free product tier is described.

Estimated customer scale
Market proof
Estimated customer or user scale based on public claims, with source claims stored separately for auditability.

Qwoted
Official copy indicates a sizable network but provides no precise customer count.
Qwoted says PR users can connect with "tens of thousands of media professionals"; this is a network-size claim, not a verified customer count. https://www.qwoted.com/for-pr-marketing-pros/
Agent readiness level
Automation
How ready the product is to operate as or inside an AI agent workflow, based on tracked subcriteria for autonomy, controls, integrations, memory, and evaluation.
Dragon Metrics
Useful automation substrate through API, scheduled reports, and CI/CD integration, but not a general autonomous SEO agent.
The API supports dashboards, data lakes, account management, keyword/competitor changes, and Site Auditor CI/CD workflows: https://www.dragonmetrics.com/product-tour/developer-api/
Qwoted
No autonomous AI agent, API-driven agent workflow, or autonomous SEO execution is documented.
Official pages describe human profiles, pitches, messaging, and sourcing teams; no agent execution capability is specified. https://www.qwoted.com/for-media/
Ease of use and autonomous level
Automation
How easy it is for a team to reach useful outcomes, and how much work the product can perform autonomously after setup.
