Reflexa vs Scrunch

Scrunch watches how your brand appears in AI answers and reports it. Reflexa puts an agent on the site and changes the site. Different jobs: one tells you where you stand, the other does the work that moves it. Below, what each does in its own words, side by side, and when each is the better choice.

What Scrunch does

From Scrunch's own site, read on 9 October 2026: Scrunch monitors how brands appear across AI platforms with citation tracking, and offers an Agent Experience Platform that “creates a parallel, lightweight version of your site that's translated for AI agents” — alternate pages served to AI agents while the human site stays as designed. Engines it names: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini and Copilot among the surfaces it names. Pricing: no public amounts on the homepage — a pricing page, a free trial and a demo are offered. https://scrunch.com/

What Reflexa does

Reflexa puts an agent on the website — one middleware file on a coded site, a plugin on WordPress — that reads the pages the way Google and the AI engines read them (23 checks), applies the fixes the owner approves from inside the site, writes a page's title, description, opening or FAQ for approval, counts every AI visit page by page, and answers questions about the site. Every change is applied from inside the site and is reversible; nothing is applied without approval. The page check is free in a free account; Starter $49/month, Growth $149/month (five times the usage); Free keeps one site, paid plans do not count sites.

When Scrunch is the better choice

A team that wants monitoring plus a separate, AI-only rendering of its site, and accepts maintaining two versions of the content.

When Reflexa is the better choice

A company that wants the site itself made readable and recommendable — the crawler access, the structured data, the answer-first text — done on the site rather than listed in a report, with every AI visit counted from inside and a price that starts at free. Many teams run a visibility report beside it; the two do not overlap.

Questions people ask.

Is Reflexa a replacement for Scrunch?

Not a like-for-like one. Scrunch reports on how your brand appears in AI answers; Reflexa changes the site so those engines can read it, from inside. Teams that want both a visibility report and the site work use both.

Does Scrunch change my website?

From its own site, as read on 9 October 2026: a parallel machine-readable copy rather than fixes to the site itself.

What does Reflexa change, and can it be undone?

Four switches applied from inside the site — AI crawlers in robots.txt, Organization JSON-LD in every page, a sitemap, /llms.txt — and page text (title, description, opening, FAQ) published only after you approve the exact words. Every change is reversible; nothing is applied without approval.

Which should I start with?

If you do not know whether AI can read your site, start with Reflexa's free page check — it is free, in a free account, and tells you in minutes. If you want to know how often you are named across engines and prompts, Scrunch is built for that. A team that wants monitoring plus a separate, AI-only rendering of its site, and accepts maintaining two versions of the content is the case for Scrunch.
