The GA4 alternative that actually shows you whether AI brings customers.
Google Analytics 4 counts your traffic for free, but it treats AI assistants as just another referrer. It cannot tell you whether ChatGPT recommends you, and it cannot separate an AI-driven visit from the rest. usrPeek samples whether AI recommends you and, because it owns the script tag on your site, follows that mention through to a named, paying customer.
| Google Analytics 4 | usrPeek | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free (GA360 enterprise runs roughly $50k/yr) | Free up to 1,000 pageviews/mo; $19/mo with the AI Monitor |
| Shows whether AI recommends you | No | Yes — samples ChatGPT, Perplexity & Gemini |
| AI traffic attribution | No — AI assistants land in Referral or Direct | Yes — isolates AI-referred visits and ties them to signups |
| Follows the mention to a paying customer? | No — it counts visits, not the AI behind them | Yes — it owns the script tag on your site, so it ties the AI mention to the visit and the named signup |
Pricing as of June 18, 2026 — source: Google Analytics pricing (analytics.google.com). Plans change; check the vendor's pricing page for the current figure.

GA4 is great at counting traffic but treats AI assistants as one more referrer. usrPeek tells you whether AI recommends you and follows those mentions to real customers — and it is free up to 1,000 pageviews a month too.
Not on its own — AI-driven visits arrive as Referral or Direct traffic with no recommendation signal. usrPeek samples the assistants and isolates the visits their mentions cause.
