Ooky vs Scrunch AI

Scrunch AI is the closest product to Ooky in this set: it also serves clean, bot-friendly HTML to AI agents at the edge. The differences are price, prompt volume, and how each of us decides what a crawler is allowed to receive.

Where each one is strong

Scrunch AI

Scrunch is a mature product, and the only other one here that also answers crawler requests with its own version of the page.

  • Nine models on Enterprise, including Claude, Gemini, Meta AI and Grok, where Ooky tops out at four.
  • 125 prompts on 4 models is 500 responses a run, against 300 from Ooky Pro's 100 on 3.
  • Per-URL editing of the agent-facing Markdown or HTML, with version history and rollback.
  • Enterprise credentials, a data API, and a dedicated go-to-market team on the top plan.

Ooky

Ooky tracks the same answers these tools track, then publishes a clean version of your pages for AI crawlers and checks what changed afterward.

  • Compiles a clean HTML and JSON-LD version of each page and serves it to recognized AI crawlers at the CDN edge, while people keep getting your normal site.
  • Checks the clean version against your live page before it goes out, so the bot copy cannot drift away from what a human sees.
  • Logs AI crawler and referral traffic first-party, from your own edge, without a third-party tag.
  • Re-runs the same prompts after a change so you can see what moved.
  • Supports up to 3 seats on Starter and unlimited seats from Pro, without per-seat add-ons as the team grows.

Same idea, different rule about what may be served

Both products do the same thing at the edge: spot a recognized AI crawler, hand it a clean, server-rendered, token-light page, and let human visitors continue to the normal site. If you have already decided that alternate delivery is the right approach, Scrunch is the other product doing it.

Where we differ is the gate. Ooky compares the compiled bot version against the real HTML of your live page and requires it to contain at least 95% of the visible text before it can be served. If it fails, it is not published. The request falls back to a signed JSON version or straight to your origin. If a reviewer wants to override that, the override is recorded as an override.

That rule exists because serving crawlers a different page than people see can shade into cloaking if you let it. The gate costs us some flexibility: Scrunch lets you write agent-facing content per URL more freely than we do. Whether that trade is worth it depends on how much your legal and brand teams care about the bot copy and the human copy staying in step.

Which one fits you

Most teams can answer this in about a minute.

Choose Scrunch AI if

  • You want more measurement per run, or the nine-model coverage on their Enterprise tier.
  • You want to hand-author what each URL says to agents, with version history behind it.
  • You are running an enterprise programme and want a vendor with more of that track record.

Choose Ooky if

  • You need to prove the bot version matches the human version, with a stated threshold.
  • $250 a month is more than the problem is worth right now and you want to start at $79 or free.
  • You want tracking, delivery and crawler analytics from one vendor rather than a broader programme.

Common questions

The things buyers ask us most often when Ooky and Scrunch AI are both on the shortlist.

01

Is Scrunch AI or Ooky better for edge delivery?

They are the two real options here. Scrunch gives you more control over what each URL says to agents and more prompt volume alongside it. Ooky gives you a published parity threshold, so the bot version cannot drift from the human page. Pick on which of those two your team will be asked about.

02

Is serving different HTML to bots cloaking?

It is if the content differs materially from what people see. That is exactly why Ooky measures containment against your live page before serving anything, and refuses to publish pages that fail. Whichever vendor you choose, ask them how they prevent drift and get the answer in writing.

03

How much cheaper is Ooky?

They are within a dollar: Scrunch Core is $250/mo, Ooky Pro is $249/mo. The difference is shape. Scrunch measures more per run; Ooky covers three brands to their one, with unlimited seats against five, plus publishing on every paid plan and a free tier.

04

Do both keep the human experience unchanged?

Yes. Both detect AI agents by user agent at the edge and route only those requests to the clean version. Ordinary human traffic goes to your origin as normal.

05

Which covers more AI platforms?

Scrunch. Core tracks 4 models against Ooky's 3, and their Enterprise tier reaches 9 where Ooky tops out at 4. If breadth of engine coverage is your first requirement, Scrunch is the better fit.
