Everything we're shipping to make your business more visible across AI answer engines.
Demand, who gets recommended, and what AI asks itself are now tracked separately for ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Google AI, with an "All platforms" view.
A platform switch at the top of Market Intelligence re-renders every card, so you can see exactly where the platforms disagree about your market.
Every topic now shows whether it's being asked more or less than before. On a topic's first week the arrow comes from twelve months of search history; after that it compares week to week.
Each tracked topic in Market Intelligence now carries a weekly Demand Rating — Very low to Very high — with a confidence level.
Ratings combine search demand for your metro and your city, AI search volume estimates, and how often AI answers about that topic actually name a business. We show bands, not counts: no one has real AI query logs, and we'd rather be honest than precise-sounding.
AI answer monitoring now refreshes on a weekly schedule across all platforms, so trend lines compare like with like and your monthly reports reflect a consistent cadence.
How each AI platform's demand relates to Google's is stored as a versioned set of published, dated figures, refreshed quarterly. Every rating can show where its assumptions came from — open "How we rated this" on any topic.
We removed sections that were duplicated elsewhere or no longer accurate — content opportunities, questions people ask (now in Prompt Opportunities), sources and cited pages (now in Authority Builder), the competitor landscape, keyword volume lists, and the keyword editor.
Run Scan, Visibility Trajectory and Query Movement stay.
A market briefing you can read in ten seconds:
- How much your market asks AI — a five-band spectrum with one dot per topic, your metro and city search totals, and "asked more / asked less" buttons that filter the list.
- Who AI recommends — how often you're named in AI answers about your topics, and who else is.
- Where the opportunity is — every topic as a bubble: right means more people ask, lower means fewer answers name any business, bigger means more searches, a pale halo means we're less certain. Hover any bubble or topic for a plain-language read.
- What each AI asks itself — the follow-up questions each platform generates, side by side, with shared and unique ones marked.
- Your topics, ranked — with "How we rated this" showing every estimate and where it came from.
You no longer type keywords. Each week we find the topics your market is actually asking about — from what people ask AI, what AI asks itself, what already finds you on Google and in your Business Profile, and search data for your metro — and add the strongest ones automatically.
Anything else we find is suggested with its evidence. You can add, pause, or restore any topic; paused topics keep their history.
Demand is measured for your city and for the nearest major metro — for example Mesa *and* Phoenix — because people search the metro name far more often than a suburb.
The metro is resolved automatically from your business location and shown with its distance, so you can see both the local signal and the bigger market you actually compete in.
Agentic link-building and citation system that discovers targets from real data, executes acquisition with approval, verifies wins, and re-aims Content Studio at newly winnable keywords. Currently in planning.
Free accounts now get a real sample of their AI Mentions data — actual answers where AI platforms reference your business — instead of a locked screen.
You can see genuine proof that AI is (or isn't) mentioning you before paying anything. When you're ready for the full picture across every platform and query, upgrading unlocks complete coverage and the sources each answer cites.
AI Mentions is a new dashboard tab that shows every time ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews names your business in an answer — and the exact web sources those platforms pulled from to say it.
Your Askable Score tells you how visible you should be. AI Mentions shows what's actually happening: the real answers customers see when they ask AI about your industry, whether you show up in them, and which pages earned the mention. That turns an abstract score into a concrete list of wins to defend and gaps to close.
Outpost blogs can now run on your own domain (like resources.yourbusiness.com) and automatically match your brand colors across the header and footer.
Content published to Outpost now looks like a native part of your website instead of a third-party tool. That builds trust with visitors and keeps the SEO and AEO authority you're earning attached to your own brand — not someone else's subdomain.
Content Studio now remembers every topic it has ever suggested for your business — across all sources and every scan — and never proposes the same one twice.
Before, popular topics could resurface month after month, wasting your content budget on things you'd already covered. Now every suggestion is genuinely new, so each article expands your coverage into fresh queries customers are actually asking AI.
We rebuilt how the Foundation Score works so that when you fix something on your site mid-cycle, the very next scan detects the change and updates your Askable Score to reflect it.
Previously, improvements you made could go uncredited until a later full re-evaluation, which was discouraging. Now the score moves when you do the work — you get accurate, timely feedback that the changes you're making are landing.
A new view in the AI Traffic tab shows which AI crawlers — the bots behind ChatGPT, Perplexity, and others — are visiting your site, alongside your Google Analytics traffic for Outpost content.
AI can only recommend businesses it has actually read. Seeing these crawlers hit your pages is early proof that your content is being ingested by the systems that answer customer questions, so you know your visibility work is reaching the source.
You can now regenerate a single article in Content Studio instead of rerunning an entire batch.
When one piece needs a different angle or a fresh take, you fix just that article in seconds rather than reprocessing everything. Faster iteration means your content calendar keeps moving without bottlenecks.
Newly generated articles now automatically include contextual internal links to your other relevant content, built in at the moment each article is created.
Internal linking is one of the strongest signals both search engines and AI use to understand what your site is authoritative about. Getting it automatically means stronger topical authority and better discoverability with zero manual linking work on your end.
Outpost is a fully managed content hub for your business — a fast, analytics-ready blog where your AEO-optimized articles are published and hosted without touching your main website.
Most businesses can't publish content quickly because it means wrestling with their CMS or waiting on a web team. Outpost removes that friction entirely: your optimized articles go live on a high-performance hub built to be read by both customers and AI engines, so your visibility compounds week over week.
Market Intelligence is a new tab showing your share of voice across AI platforms, how you stack up against competitors, and the specific sources AI engines cite when answering questions in your industry.
Knowing your own score isn't enough — you need to know whether you're winning or losing against the businesses next to you. This shows exactly who AI favors, why, and which sources you'd need to appear in to close the gap, turning competitive guesswork into a clear target list.
The agency portfolio view now supports search, sorting, and pagination, built for managing large numbers of client accounts at a glance.
Agencies running dozens of accounts needed to find any client instantly and sort by score, recency, or name without endless scrolling. This makes the portfolio genuinely usable at scale, so nothing slips through the cracks.
AI Traffic monitoring expanded from a handful of generic queries to 30–40 structured queries per brand, split into branded and discovery searches, with local competitors discovered automatically via Google Places.
More queries means a far more accurate read on where you actually stand — not just whether AI knows your name, but whether it recommends you for the specific things customers search. The local competitor discovery shows you exactly who you're up against in your market.
The Agency tier lets you manage AI visibility across many client accounts from one command center: a portfolio dashboard, team management, role-based access, and client invitations.
Agencies and multi-location businesses can now oversee every account's AI visibility in one place, delegate access to team members and clients with the right permissions, and report on the whole book of business without juggling logins. It's the operational backbone for selling AI visibility as a service.
We launched a structured content system with city-specific articles, evergreen resource guides, and side-by-side comparison pages — all automatically routed, sitemapped, and optimized for both AI and traditional search.
Local businesses win by showing up for city-level and comparison queries, which are exactly the questions customers ask AI when they're ready to buy. This system produces that content at scale with the right structure baked in, so each piece is built to be found and cited.
The free audit now opens on a clean, standalone report showing your Askable Score, AI visibility grades, strengths, gaps, and quick wins — with scores calculated deterministically for consistency.
You get a clear, professional read on exactly where your AI visibility stands in under a minute, with specific quick wins you can act on immediately. Because the scoring is deterministic, the same site always gets the same score — so you can trust the number and track real progress over time.
