An AI visibility tracker asks AI engines such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Google’s AI Overviews a fixed set of questions on a schedule, and records which brands each answer names and which pages it cites. Over weeks, that shows your share of answers against competitors, since a single answer varies from one ask to the next.
Each check repeats the same calls and keeps what it saw, so the next one reports only what is new. Change the cadence or alerts on any monitor.
Monitors in the docsYour share of answers by engine against up to nine competitors, the pages each engine cites, and brands that start appearing in ChatGPT’s answers. Alerts wait for a move that holds, not one noisy answer.
Plain questions in any connected client. The agent picks the tools.

Dashboards run a set of prompts every day and price by prompts and engines. Asking by hand is free but one answer is mostly noise. Manifold runs the same checks on the schedule you choose, from your agent, and can still answer any one-off prompt. For trackers with their own MCP servers, see the best AI visibility MCP servers.

Each check pays for the calls it makes, at the same prices as your agent’s calls, and the form shows the monthly cost before it starts. No seats and no plan per monitor. Every workspace gets 250 free credits a month.

ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Google’s AI Overviews and Google’s AI Mode. A monitor starts with ChatGPT, Gemini and AI Overviews; add the others for more cost.
One answer is mostly noise, and the share of answers moves slowly. A weekly check sees a real move for a seventh of the daily price. Ask each question up to three times per check to steady the rate.
Alerts are off by default, because one answer changes from ask to ask. When on, they wait for a move that holds across checks. Every move is in the monitor’s feed either way.
The checker runs one question once, free, on this site. A monitor runs your list on a schedule and keeps the history, so it can show a trend and say what changed. AI visibility checker
Yes. Ask in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any connected client, such as “monitor this every day”. The agent shows the monthly cost first and creates the monitor once you agree. Later, ask what changed and it reads the monitor’s finds. You can also make one in the dashboard. How monitors work
Each check charges for the calls it makes, shown as a monthly estimate before you start. Your workspace’s spend cap applies to monitors as to everything else: at the cap checks are skipped until it resets, and with no credits left a monitor pauses until you act. There is no overage. How credits work
When your agent needs AI visibility tracking, an MCP server connects it to the tools that monitor brand mentions and source citations across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity. Here are the best AI visibility tools with MCP servers, what they cost, and which one fits your workflow.
An AI Overview tracker records which searches show a Google AI Overview, which pages it cites and which brands it names. We checked eight searches and found most cited pages do not rank on page one, so here is how to track the citations themselves.
ChatGPT cites the pages its web search finds, and for buyer questions most of them are best-of lists. We sorted 118 pages that ChatGPT, Gemini and AI Overviews cited to show what gets picked, then turned it into steps you can take or hand to your agent.
