VectorCite vs Scrunch AI
Scoring rubric vs agent-traffic graph.
Honest verdict
Scrunch is purpose-built for tracking how AI agents (not humans) traverse your site — a uniquely valuable lens for sites whose buyers research via agents. VectorCite is purpose-built for scoring whether AI engines will cite your page. Different layers of the stack. Pair them, don't pick.
