Suparanku vs Ahrefs Brand Radar
These are different kinds of tool. Brand Radar is a measuring instrument: a huge ready-made index you can query for any brand, back to 2024. Suparanku is a management system — it measures your buyers’ own questions weekly, tells you what to do, then shows whether it worked. Either can be the right call.
Suparanku
- Your business
- Measure
- Prioritise

- Record URL
- Measure again

Feature by feature
Each bar shows which product is stronger on that point, and by how clear a margin. It is our reading of the facts in the two cards below it — never a score we made up.
What each product measures
The deepest difference is where the questions come from.
Where the questions come from
Ahrefs derives questions from real Google searches, at a scale we cannot match. Ours mirror how your buyers actually ask.
Suparanku
- Questions built from a profile of your business, by topic and buying stage
- Asked in your market’s language, and editable on every plan
- 15 questions on Free, 150 on Business — a focused set, not a corpus
Ahrefs Brand Radar
- Hundreds of millions of questions a month, from a 110-billion-keyword database
- Weighted by real search volume, with a published methodology
- Your own questions are a metered extra: 150–600 checks a month by plan
Looking backwards
Brand Radar can tell you what AI said about any brand last year. Suparanku starts measuring the day you sign up.
Suparanku
- No history before your first scan — we cannot look backwards
- From then on, weekly scans and scan-by-scan movement
Ahrefs Brand Radar
- History to August 2024 for Google AI Overviews, May 2025 for chatbots
- Works on any brand with zero setup — competitors included
AI engines
Each covers surfaces the other does not. Neither list is a superset.
Suparanku
- ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Google AI Overviews
- Each question asked three times per engine, then averaged
- Perplexity, Copilot and Google AI Mode are not measured
Ahrefs Brand Radar
- Seven AI platforms, including Perplexity, Copilot and Google AI Mode
- Plus early indexes for YouTube, TikTok and Reddit
- Claude only via custom questions, at 8 checks a run; Grok paused after X’s policy change
How fresh the data is
Their big index refreshes monthly, but your own questions can run daily if you pay per check. Ours are weekly and included.
Suparanku
- Weekly scans of your own question set, included on paid plans
- Marks the chart wherever the measured questions changed
- Free runs one scan ever — a snapshot, so no trend
Ahrefs Brand Radar
- The ready-made index refreshes once a month, on a 90-day window
- Your own questions can run daily, weekly or monthly — faster than us, but metered
- Google AI Overviews and AI Mode update continuously
What you learn from each answer
Both count mentions and citations. Only Suparanku reports tone and position.
Suparanku
- Named or not, where in the list, and in what tone — with the reason
- The full text of every answer, and which sources it quoted
- Split by topic, buying stage, and branded vs unbranded
Ahrefs Brand Radar
- Mentions, citations, estimated impressions and share of voice vs competitors
- Top cited pages and domains
- Tone scoring is not documented publicly
Turning findings into work
What it tells you to do
This is the categorical difference: Brand Radar reports, Suparanku prescribes.
Suparanku
- Three prioritised lists: your business facts, your website, your content
- Website fixes come with a snippet ready to paste, and close themselves once fixed
- Content briefs, including which outside sites to publish on
Ahrefs Brand Radar
- AI-specific recommendations or briefs are not documented publicly
- Its cited-pages reports do show you where the gaps are
- Ahrefs’ AI Content Helper is for classic keyword rankings, not AI answers
Proving something worked
Recording what you published, then re-measuring it, is the whole point of Suparanku.
Suparanku
- A published URL becomes a tracked source the next scan looks for
- Charts mark the first scan after you marked something published
- Content items do not close themselves — you must record the URL
Ahrefs Brand Radar
- You can watch the numbers move month over month, at index scale
- A publish-then-re-measure workflow is not documented publicly
Where each one works
The Japanese market
Ahrefs has a real Japanese presence. But Ahrefs itself says its coverage is strongest in English.
Suparanku
- Questions asked in Japanese, as Japanese buyers ask
- Japanese product and support, prices in yen, data in Tokyo
- Japan-specific tactics, not translated ones
Ahrefs Brand Radar
- Japanese interface, yen pricing, a Japan office and Japanese tutorials
- Questions run in the country of the source keyword
- Their methodology states coverage is strongest in English
If you are an agency
Ahrefs reports carry Ahrefs branding. Ours can carry yours.
Suparanku
- Client reports co-branded “Suparanku × your logo” on every page
- A free audit you can run on any prospect’s domain
- No agency console and no full white-label yet
Ahrefs Brand Radar
- Saved reports with access controls, and charts embeddable in their report builder
- Ahrefs states it does not allow white-labelling its reports
What else the subscription buys
Ahrefs’ surrounding toolkit is a genuine advantage. Suparanku is deliberately one product.
Suparanku
- One job: how AI describes your brand, measured and managed
- Deliberately not an SEO suite — no backlinks, no rank tracking
Ahrefs Brand Radar
- Sits beside best-in-class SEO tooling your team may already use daily
- A free public AI visibility checker anyone can try
Getting in
How you buy it
Different shapes: an add-on with metered checks, versus standalone plans with weekly scans included.
Suparanku
- A permanent free tier: one real scan, a site audit and a PDF report, no card
- ¥29,800 and ¥148,000 a month, weekly scans included
- Free gives one scan ever, no briefs and no trend
Ahrefs Brand Radar
- The interface ships inside Ahrefs paid plans, from ¥19,900 a month in Japan
- The full index is an add-on: $199 per platform or $699 for all
- One check = one question, one model, one location. Claude costs 8
Access for your own tools
Both ship an MCP server. Theirs sits beside a REST API; for us the MCP is the whole interface.
Suparanku
- An MCP server with ~90 tools, including a self-driving site-audit loop
- No public REST API by design, and MCP is off on Free
Ahrefs Brand Radar
- An MCP server on every paid plan, plus a REST API and a Looker Studio connector
- Pulling your own question data costs no API units
Which one is right for you
Pick Suparanku if…
- You want to change the numbers, not only read them: a prioritised list, briefs, and proof it worked.
- You want the questions to match how your buyers actually ask, not what people type into Google.
- You need tone and position, not just whether you were mentioned.
- You want weekly measurement of your own questions included, not metered by the check.
- You sell in Japan or across languages and want that handled natively.
- You are an agency that wants a report with your own logo on it.
Pick Ahrefs Brand Radar if…
- You want to look up any brand instantly — a competitor, a prospect, an acquisition target — with history back to 2024. Nothing in Suparanku can look backwards.
- Your team already pays for Ahrefs: the extra cost and learning curve are hard to beat.
- You need Google AI Mode, Perplexity or Copilot coverage, or the YouTube, TikTok and Reddit indexes.
- You want visibility weighted by real search demand, at a scale no question-by-question scanner can match.
- You want a published, self-critical methodology you can audit yourself.
- You need a REST API feeding an existing dashboard or data warehouse.
How Suparanku works: the closed loop
Suparanku is built around one repeatable cycle. GEO, LLMO and AEO are tactics inside this loop — the loop itself is the product.
-
1. Your business, structured
A profile of what you sell and how buyers ask, built from your site and editable. Every number below depends on it.
-
2. Measure what AI says
Real questions asked to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Google AI Overviews: are you named, where, in what tone, next to whom, from which sources.
-
3. Get a prioritised list
Three queues — your business facts, your website, your content — each card stamped with the version of the playbook that produced it.
-
4. Publish, on and off your site
Briefs cover your own page and the outside sites the engines already quote in your market. Your team or agency writes and ships it.
-
5. Record what you published
The URL becomes a tracked source, so the next scan knows what to look for.
-
6. Measure again
Weekly scans show whether the answers moved — scan by scan, with a marker wherever the measured questions changed.
