What it does

Monitors AI answers: YesThe whole product is answer monitoring: it fires your prompts at the models and records who and what each one cited, run after run.Once you've run a prompt set, AISpy records who and what each model cited.archytasdigital.com/help/tracking-visib…
Optimises your content: PartlyIt identifies content gaps from fanout queries and citation patterns rather than analysing pages you already have; there is no page-level audit of your own URLs documented.Archytas AISpy surfaces the content types, page structures, and topics Google's AI is consistently rewarding - and where your current content is…archytasdigital.com/usecases/aimode
Generates content: NoA run consists of querying models and recording citations; nothing on the site offers drafting or briefs, and the follow-on question feature only re-interrogates a stored response, for example to classify sentiment or extract brands.Hit Run — AISpy queries each model and records who and what gets cited.archytasdigital.com/help
Publishes to your site: NoThe vendor's own inventory of outputs is spreadsheets and a PDF of the dashboards; there is no CMS, WordPress or webhook destination described anywhere on the site.Excel (.xlsx) and CSV. The dashboards can also be exported as a PDF.archytasdigital.com/usecases/export
Technical AEO: PartlyAISpy itself never touches schema, llms.txt or robots directives; the company publishes a separate free web tool that checks whether a domain appears in Common Crawl, and its consultancy line sells technical audits covering structured data and crawlability.Many LLMs are trained on data sourced from Common Crawl. Enter a domain to check whether it appears in the latest Common Crawl index.archytasdigital.com/tools/commoncrawlch…
Done-for-you service: PartlyAISpy itself is self-serve software with nobody doing the work for you, but the same company sells separate freelance AEO/GEO and technical SEO consultancy from its own page.I can support you in navigating the fast-evolving field with strategic consulting across technology, content and earned media.archytasdigital.com/seoconsultancy

Answer engines

ChatGPT: YesChatGPT tracking is a first-class surface with its own page, driven by an OpenAI API key you supply yourself.To track your visibility in ChatGPT, you'll need an API key from OpenAI. Archytas AISpy handles the rest - you just paste it in and point it at your…archytasdigital.com/supportedllms/chatg…
Perplexity: YesPerplexity is a supported engine with its own tracking page; note the page asks for a DataForSEO key while the help centre lists a Perplexity key for it.Track your brand's presence in Perplexity - the search-first AI that always cites its sources.archytasdigital.com/supportedllms/perpl…
Gemini: YesGemini is tracked through the official Gemini API using a Google AI Studio key, across whichever models your API tier exposes.You need a Gemini API key from Google AI Studio - not a Google Search API key or a Google Cloud key.archytasdigital.com/supportedllms/gemini
Google AI Overviews: YesAI Overviews are covered, but only through DataForSEO credentials you buy and pay for separately rather than any Google API.AI Overviews and AI Mode aren't exposed through an official Google API, so AISpy uses DataForSEO as the data source.archytasdigital.com/supportedllms/google
Google AI Mode: YesGoogle AI Mode is tracked as its own surface with dedicated views, again sourced via DataForSEO rather than a Google key.AISpy tracks both through DataForSEO's integrations.archytasdigital.com/supportedllms/google
Claude: YesClaude is supported with its own page, pulling the live Anthropic model list so Haiku, Sonnet and Opus can each be tracked separately.Yes. You can track all three separately. AISpy can query all the API endpoints made available by Anthropic, including older models.archytasdigital.com/supportedllms/claude
Microsoft Copilot: NoCopilot appears nowhere in the vendor's provider inventory: the help centre enumerates the providers needed to track a given model and Microsoft is not among the five.To track a given model you'll need a valid API key for that provider: ChatGPT - an OpenAI API key; Claude - an Anthropic API key; Gemini - a Google…archytasdigital.com/help
Grok: NoxAI is absent from both the help centre's complete provider key list and the homepage FAQ naming the providers whose keys are required, so Grok is not a trackable engine.To track visibility in an LLM, you'll need the relevant API keys from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google or Perplexity.archytasdigital.com
DeepSeek: NoDeepSeek is not among the providers the vendor says you need keys for, and the supported-LLM section lists exactly five engines, none of them DeepSeek.archytasdigital.com
Meta AI: NoMeta is not in the provider key inventory the help centre gives for tracking a model, so Meta AI cannot be queried by the app as shipped.archytasdigital.com/help
Coverage in the vendor’s words: YesThe vendor states coverage as five surfaces (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Mode and AI Overviews) with no tier limits, since every model list is refreshed from the provider API.Track your domains visibility, who else is appearing, and how the larger landscape across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Google AI…archytasdigital.com/usecases/scheduling
Reads answers as a user sees them: NoCollection is entirely API-based rather than reading the consumer apps: provider APIs for the LLMs and DataForSEO for Google's AI surfaces, which the vendor states explicitly.Archytas AISpy tracks all three, but through different integrations: Gemini via the official API, AI Overviews and AI mode via DataForSEO.archytasdigital.com/supportedllms/gemini

What it reports

Names the cited sources: YesCited domains and URLs are the core record, shown in a domain-by-model matrix and benchmarked over time for every tracked prompt.The matrix gives you an at-a-glance view of which domains were cited across every model and prompt.archytasdigital.com/help/tracking-visib…
Competitor tracking: YesCompetitors appear in the same dashboards without a preset list, because every citation and mention found for your prompts is stored and can be surfaced.The dashboards are designed to be website-agnostic; every citation and mention is stored and can be surfaced.archytasdigital.com/usecases/dashboards
Brand sentiment: YesEntity and language analysis reports the people, organisations, products and locations models associate with each prompt, and follow-on questions can classify sentiment on any response.Archytas AISpy surfaces the people, organisations, products, and locations AI models discuss with each prompt, alongside a breakdown of the key…archytasdigital.com/usecases/dashboards
Recommendations: PartlyIt points you at gaps rather than issuing fixes: fanout queries and citation patterns show which questions your content fails to answer, but there is no recommendation engine or task list.If you can see that LLMs are firing a specific query when someone asks about your space-and your content doesn't address that query-you have a clear…archytasdigital.com/usecases/fanoutquer…
AI crawler analytics: NoAISpy records only what models return - citations and language mentions - and never ingests server logs or CDN data, so you cannot see GPTBot or ClaudeBot hits on your own site; the separate Common Crawl Checker only reports index presence.Citations — a URL the model linked to or referenced as a source. Language mentions — your brand or a competitor named in the response text, even…archytasdigital.com/help/tracking-visib…
Wrong answers about you: PartlyYou can read every stored response and fire your own classification follow-up, but no automatic false-claim flagging is described.For any response, you can ask a follow-up question using any model you choose — classify sentiment, extract every brand mentioned, or summarise the…archytasdigital.com/help/tracking-visib…

Projects or brands: YesMultiple brands and multiple projects are supported with no vendor-imposed cap, and cadence is configured per project.As many as you want. That's the advantage of a tool that runs locally vs in the cloud, there's no artificial limits beyond your hard disk.archytasdigital.com

Card required to start: NoThere is no payment step of any kind: the app is downloaded free from the site and the only cost is the provider API usage billed to you by those providers.AISpy is free!

Self-serve signup: YesYou download an installer, paste in your own provider key and run a prompt; no sales contact, account creation or quote is involved.Install AISpy, add your first API key, and run your first visibility check in a few minutes.archytasdigital.com/help

Access and integrations

API: PartlyThere is no public HTTP API, but the data is genuinely pullable: everything lands in a standard SQLite database you can query directly, plus scheduled CSV and XLSX exports.Archytas AISpy is built on top of a standard SQLite database. For those looking to integrate into a larger data pipeline, you can query it directlyarchytasdigital.com/usecases/export
MCP server: NoThe vendor states plainly that MCP support does not exist yet and is only a roadmap item, so an agent cannot query the app today.Not yet. It's on the roadmap!archytasdigital.com
