Hoverboard review
Daily answer-engine tracking and reporting, starting at $199 per month.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Hoverboard helps agencies, marketers, and brands monitor how they appear in AI answer engines. Its cloud-based web app tracks daily brand visibility, sentiment, competitors, and citation sources, then adds AI recommendations and content generation. The published specification lists capacity for 3,100 tracked prompts, and multi-seat collaboration supports teams preparing reports for clients. It is aimed at teams that need ongoing visibility analysis at scale, rather than occasional spot checks or a free starting point.
Engine coverage and reporting expand with the monthly plans. Basic costs $199 per month and covers ChatGPT and Google Gemini, with citation analysis, recommendations, sentiment analysis, and competitor tracking. Standard is $399 per month, adding Google AI Overviews, priority email support, and white-label PDF and Excel exports. Business costs $599 per month and adds Google AI Mode to the named engine coverage, priority support by email and chat, and white-label PDF exports. All three include citation tracking and analysis, AI insights, and sentiment features. Teams should match the plan to the engines they need and the report formats they deliver.
The core value is the combination of monitoring, citation inspection, competitor comparison, and recommendations in one reporting workflow. Content generation and optimized articles can help teams act on the analysis, while exports support client-facing reporting. The trade-off is cost: there is no free plan, and broader coverage and report options sit in higher-priced tiers. The published product details also specify no API access, which may matter to teams looking to connect tracking data to other systems. Hoverboard suits agencies and in-house teams with substantial prompt volumes and recurring reporting needs; teams seeking integrations through an API or a lower-cost entry point should look elsewhere.
