AI Search tracking

Set up AI Search tracking

We ask AI assistants the questions your buyers ask, and record whether they mention you. Set it up once — get a fresh read on where you stand, every week.

How it works

Buyers increasingly ask AI assistants who to buy from. If the answer doesn't mention you, you lose deals you never see. AI Search tracking makes that visible — and measurable.

Ask

Your buyers' real questions

You define up to ten tracked prompts — the questions a customer would actually type when choosing a provider like you.

Run

Weekly checkups

Every week, each prompt runs multiple times against an AI assistant, because AI answers vary run to run. Repetition is what makes the numbers trustworthy.

Record

Mentions, position, citations

For every run we record whether you're mentioned, where you sit in the recommendation, which sources are cited, and the sentiment around your name.

Set it up in four steps

The whole setup takes about five minutes. The tracking runs itself after that.

1

Activate the Watcher

AI Search tracking is included in every paid Echorank plan — if you're on one, it's already yours. Not a subscriber? Get the Watcher on its own from the pricing page.

2

Add your brand

Tell us the brand name to watch for. This is the name we look for in every AI answer — mentions, recommendations and citations are all matched against it.

3

Add your tracked prompts

Enter up to ten questions your buyers ask. Not sure where to start? Use the pattern best [your category] for [your audience] and add variations for your services and locations.

4

Read your first checkup

Your first weekly checkup runs automatically. From then on, your dashboard shows a fresh AI Search Score and trend line every week — no manual work required.

What you get every week

One score you can act on, backed by the raw observations behind it.

AI Search Score

A single score blending how often you're mentioned, how prominently you're recommended, whether your pages are cited, and the sentiment of what's said.

Mention-rate trend

A week-over-week trend line, so you can see whether the work you're doing is moving the needle — or whether you're fading from the answers.

Competitor tracking

See which competitors appear in the same answers, and how often they're recommended ahead of you.

Citation tracking

Know which of your pages — and which third-party sources — AI assistants cite when they talk about your market.

Common questions

Why run each prompt more than once?

AI answers aren't deterministic — the same question can produce different recommendations run to run. Running each prompt several times per checkup turns a lucky (or unlucky) single answer into a rate you can trust.

What makes a good tracked prompt?

Track the questions a buyer would ask before choosing — "best X for Y", "who should I hire for…", "top alternatives to…". Avoid prompts that name your brand: asking about yourself doesn't tell you whether you show up organically.

How often do results update?

Checkups run weekly. Each new checkup adds a point to your trend line, so within a few weeks you can see direction, not just a snapshot.

Can I change my prompts later?

Yes — edit your tracked prompts anytime from the dashboard. New prompts are picked up on the next weekly checkup.
