How to Track Your Brand Visibility in AI Search with AEO Vision

July 15, 202611 min read

AI search visibility is not a one-time screenshot. ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Google AI Mode, and AI Overviews change answers between runs, so you need a fixed prompt set, repeated sampling, and a place to store the trend. This guide shows how to track your brand visibility in AI search with AEO Vision, from first login to a weekly review loop you can actually keep.

If you are still deciding whether you need software at all, start with how to track brand mentions in AI search. If you want a tool comparison first, see best AI search monitoring tools.

What AEO Vision tracks

AEO Vision is an AI search visibility platform. On paid plans it can monitor your brand across:

  • ChatGPT
  • Perplexity
  • Gemini
  • Claude
  • Google AI Mode
  • Google AI Overviews

For each prompt in your set, the platform looks for brand mentions, citation/source context, competitor appearance, and movement over time. Solo and Growth also include Reddit Insights, bi-weekly Action Reports, task management, and workflow automation so gaps become work instead of unread charts.

Plan Price Prompt tracking Platforms Best for
Lite $9/mo 30 prompts every 3 days ChatGPT First test
Solo $99/mo 30 prompts daily 3 platforms Solo operators
Growth $299/mo 100 prompts daily 6 platforms Multi-brand / agencies
Enterprise Custom Unlimited All 6 API, SSO, scale

Full plan detail lives on Plans. You can also explore free Citation Insights before committing.

Step 1: Create your workspace and brand

  1. Go to dashboard.aeovision.ai and create an account.
  2. Create your brand workspace with the exact brand name and primary domain you want detected.
  3. Add common aliases if people or models shorten or misspell your name (product name, old brand, acronym).

Growth and Enterprise support multi-brand workspaces. If you run an agency or a portfolio, keep one brand per workspace so prompts and competitors do not mix.

Step 2: Build a prompt set you will not keep rewriting

Start with 20–30 prompts on Lite/Solo, or up to your plan limit on Growth. Cover three intents:

Intent Example
Problem / how-to “How do B2B SaaS teams measure AI search visibility?”
Comparison “Best alternatives to [Competitor] for AI brand monitoring”
Category shortlist “Best AI search monitoring tools for agencies”

Rules that keep the data honest:

  • Freeze wording after the first week.
  • Prefer buyer language over internal jargon.
  • Include a few branded prompts for recognition checks, but do not make the whole set branded.
  • Skip vanity queries you would never optimize for.

Step 3: Choose platforms for your plan

  • Lite: ChatGPT only. Use it to learn the workflow.
  • Solo: Pick your top three engines. Most teams start with ChatGPT + Perplexity + one Google surface (Gemini, AI Mode, or AI Overviews).
  • Growth / Enterprise: Turn on all six if your buyers are spread across assistants and Google generative results.

You do not need every model on day one. You do need the engines your customers actually ask.

Step 4: Add competitors on day one

Mentions without competitors are vanity metrics. Add 3–5 brands that already appear in category answers, even if they are not your classic SEO rivals.

For each shared prompt, AEO Vision helps you see:

  • Who is mentioned
  • Who is cited
  • Where you are absent and a rival is present

That competitor gap list is usually the highest-ROI output in week one. Deeper playbook: how to track competitors in AI search.

AI answers are non-deterministic. One run is a sample. After setup:

  1. Wait for the first completed checks (every 3 days on Lite, daily on Solo/Growth).
  2. Open mention rate, citation context, and competitor gaps.
  3. Save a Week 1 baseline: top wins, top losses, and the five prompts that matter most to revenue.
  4. Do not rewrite your entire content site after a single bad day.

A useful weekly scorecard:

Metric Question it answers
Mention rate How often does our name appear on the prompt set?
Citation rate / sources Are models retrieving our pages?
Competitor gaps Where do rivals appear without us?
Sentiment / framing Are we recommended, neutral, or warned against?

More on metrics: AI search monitoring metrics.

Step 6: Use Action Reports, Reddit Insights, and tasks

On Solo and above, do not stop at the chart.

  • Bi-weekly Action Reports turn visibility movement into prioritized next steps.
  • Reddit Insights show community threads models often lean on for product answers.
  • Task Management / Workflow Automation convert gaps into assigned work instead of Slack archaeology.

Pick one gap cluster per week: refresh a comparison page, strengthen a FAQ block, unblock crawlers, or earn a better third-party citation. Re-measure on the same prompts.

Step 7: Set a review cadence you will keep

Cadence What to do
Daily (optional) Glance at alerts or sharp drops on money prompts
Weekly Review mention/citation trends and competitor gaps
Bi-weekly Read Action Reports and assign tasks
Monthly Expand the prompt set carefully, retire dead queries

A 14-day AEO Vision starter plan

Days 1–2: Account, brand, aliases, 20–30 prompts, 3–5 competitors, platform selection.
Days 3–7: Collect first samples. Do not change content yet. Mark baseline gaps.
Days 8–10: Ship one fix cluster tied to the biggest competitor gaps.
Days 11–14: Compare to baseline. Keep what moved. Park what did not. Decide whether to stay on Lite or move to Solo/Growth.

Common mistakes inside the product

  • Changing prompts every time a number dips
  • Tracking only “What is [Brand]?” queries
  • Skipping competitors
  • Reading one ChatGPT answer as the whole market
  • Buying Growth volume before you have a weekly review habit
  • Ignoring citations and only celebrating name mentions

Which plan should you start on?

  • Lite ($9): Prove ChatGPT visibility tracking before you expand.
  • Solo ($99): Daily tracking across three engines plus Action Reports and Reddit Insights.
  • Growth ($299): Agencies and multi-brand operators who need 100 daily prompts and all six platforms.
  • Enterprise: SSO, API, unlimited scale, dedicated support.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I track brand visibility in AI search with AEO Vision?

Create a workspace, add your brand and aliases, load a frozen prompt set, select platforms for your plan, add competitors, then review mention and citation trends on a weekly cadence. Use Action Reports and tasks on Solo+ to turn gaps into work.

Does AEO Vision track only ChatGPT?

No. Lite starts on ChatGPT. Solo tracks three platforms. Growth and Enterprise cover six: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Google AI Mode, and Google AI Overviews.

How long until I see useful data?

First checks arrive on your plan’s cadence (every 3 days on Lite, daily on Solo/Growth). Useful decisions usually need at least one to two weeks of samples on the same prompts so you are reading a trend, not a single answer.

Can agencies track multiple clients?

Yes. Growth and Enterprise include multi-brand workspaces so each client keeps separate prompts, competitors, and reports.

Is there a free way to explore before paying?

AEO Vision does not market a full free tracking trial for paid plans, but Citation Insights lets you explore citation patterns first. Lite at $9/mo is the lowest-cost way to run real ChatGPT prompt tracking.
