CitedSpy Lifetime Deal

The CitedSpy lifetime deal starts at $79 on Earlybird against a $19 per month Solo plan, so it breaks even at about four months. Tier 1 gives 240 answer credits a month, fewer than Solo's estimated 640. Refunds run 30 days and the licence must be activated within 60.

What it does

CitedSpy runs a set of tracked questions across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, Claude and Google AI Mode, records whether the brand is mentioned and which sources were cited, and turns that into share of voice, sentiment and topic gaps. Agency features sit on the upper tiers: white-label dashboards, a custom domain, API access, a Looker Studio connector and an MCP server.

For the same job under AppSumo terms, compare ZeroRank AI at $69 and Nuwtonic’s Search Console integration. All three track AI answers, so buying two mostly buys the same data twice.

What it replaces, and the three-year comparison

It stands in for an ai answer visibility tracker, manual checking of chatgpt and perplexity answers, client-facing share of voice reporting. The vendor charges $19 a month for the plan this tier maps to, so three years on that plan costs $684 against $79 once here.

Refund window and activation deadline

Earlybird gives 30 days to claim a refund. The licence has to be activated within 60 days of purchase, a separate clock running from the same date. Full Earlybird terms.

Watch-outs

From the tier table, the vendor's update history and the platform's terms.

  1. Unlimited prompts tracked carries a qualifier. Tier 1 allows 240 answer credits a month, while the $19 Solo plan it maps to is estimated at around 640 answers a month on the vendor's own pricing page.

  2. Earlybird refunds close at 30 days, half of AppSumo's, while the licence activation deadline runs to 60. A buyer who waits to try the product can lose the refund before opening it.

  3. Established in 2026 with $2,000 monthly recurring revenue stated on the listing, and carrying a single customer rating. That is a young vendor selling permanent access on very little public evidence.

  4. White-label dashboards, custom domain, API access, MCP and Looker Studio only appear from Tier 3 at $299, so the two cheapest tiers are unsuitable for client work.

Earlybird shows 5 from 1 review. The platform's number, not ours, and not marked up as a rating here.

Questions about this deal

Are the refund window and the activation deadline the same thing?

No, and this is the listing where it matters most. The money-back guarantee runs 30 days from purchase. The licence activation deadline runs 60. Missing the second is not covered by the first having expired.

Is there a changelog for this listing?

No. Earlybird publishes no update feed for the product, so the most recent vendor communication is a founder reply to a customer review dated 27 August 2026. That is what the last vendor update date records.
