Promptwatch is an AI search visibility platform that tracks how ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and other answer engines mention and cite a brand. It pairs that monitoring with AI crawler log analysis and content agents that draft and publish pages into Webflow, Framer or WordPress.

## What it does

**Monitors AI answers** · Yes — Core purpose of the product: prompts are re-run against the answer engines and the brand's mentions, visibility score and share of voice are recorded from real LLM interfaces rather than APIs.

> Track real user prompts and see when AI mentions your brand in its responses.
> — https://promptwatch.com/ · Platform section, Prompt Tracking card

**Optimises your content** · Yes — Content gap analysis maps existing pages against tracked AI answers and the refresh flow returns diff-style edit suggestions for pages you already have; Content Gap Analysis is ticked on the entry Essential plan.

> Promptwatch maps your existing content against the AI responses you're tracking. You see exactly where your pages cover the answer and where they don't.
> — https://promptwatch.com/features/content-agents · Content gap analysis section body copy

**Generates content** · Partly — Content Agents write new articles from citation data, but the entry Essential plan is sold with no article allowance at all; monthly AEO Articles start at five on Professional and ten on Business.

> No AEO Articles
> — https://promptwatch.com/pricing · Brands plan cards, Essential card allowance line beneath the price

**Publishes to your site** · Yes — Drafts can be pushed into a connected CMS as an unpublished item and then published live from inside Promptwatch, with three named CMS providers supported per project.

> Webflow, Framer, and WordPress are supported. A connection is set up once per project.
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/publishing-and-tracking · Connecting a CMS section

**Technical AEO** · Yes — A Technical Optimization row is ticked from the entry plan, and the Sitemap Health tab reports HTTP status, speed and missing SEO elements from Promptwatch's own crawl of sitemap pages.

> The Health tab reports page-level SEO issues, speed metrics, and content stats from the latest crawl of your sitemap pages, so you can fix what holds AI visibility back.
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/site-health · Site health page, summary line under the title

**Done-for-you service** · Partly — Self-serve tiers are software only; the quote-only Custom tier adds managed content workflows plus a dedicated success manager, which is the closest the vendor comes to doing the work for you.

> Managed content workflows
> — https://promptwatch.com/pricing · Custom tab, Custom plan card feature list

## Answer engines

**ChatGPT** · Yes — ChatGPT is listed as a supported model on every published plan column and is the one model the non-paid entry tier is limited to, so coverage starts at the bottom of the ladder.

> ChatGPT, AI Overview, AI Mode, Copilot, Gemini, Perplexity, Alexa. These answer with live web results, the way a real user in your target market would see them
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/choosing-your-models · Choosing Your Models, "The two kinds of models" section, live-search and API-model bullets

**Perplexity** · Yes — Perplexity appears as a supported AI model in the plan comparison table with a tick on Essential, Professional and Business, and is grouped with the live-search platforms that return citations.

> ChatGPT, AI Overview, AI Mode, Copilot, Gemini, Perplexity, Alexa. These answer with live web results, the way a real user in your target market would see them
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/choosing-your-models · Choosing Your Models, "The two kinds of models" section, live-search and API-model bullets

**Gemini** · Yes — Google Gemini is its own row in the AI Models block of the plan table, ticked on all three published brand plans, and is documented as a live-search platform returning source URLs.

> Google Gemini
> — https://promptwatch.com/pricing · Plan comparison table, AI Models section, Google Gemini row

**Google AI Overviews** · Yes — Google AI Overviews is a separate tracked surface in the comparison table rather than folded into Gemini, and the FAQ names it among the engines scraped from real user interfaces.

> Google AI Overviews
> — https://promptwatch.com/pricing · Plan comparison table, AI Models section, Google AI Overviews row

**Google AI Mode** · Yes — Google AI Mode is listed as its own model row alongside AI Overviews in the plan table and appears in the documented live-search group, so it is tracked separately from classic Gemini.

> Google AI Mode
> — https://promptwatch.com/pricing · Plan comparison table, AI Models section, Google AI Mode row

**Claude** · Yes — Anthropic (Claude) is ticked on every published brand plan, but the docs class it as an API model that answers from training knowledge, so citations appear only when the provider returns sources.

> Most answer from training knowledge without live web search, so citations only appear when the provider returns sources.
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/choosing-your-models · Choosing Your Models, "The two kinds of models" section, live-search and API-model bullets

**Microsoft Copilot** · Yes — Copilot is named in the documented registry of live-search platforms, although it is not one of the model rows printed on the public plan comparison table.

> ChatGPT, AI Overview, AI Mode, Copilot, Gemini, Perplexity, Alexa. These answer with live web results, the way a real user in your target market would see them
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/choosing-your-models · Choosing Your Models, "The two kinds of models" section, live-search and API-model bullets

**Grok** · Yes — Grok has its own row in the plan table, ticked on all three brand plans, and is documented in the API-model group that answers without live web search.

> Grok
> — https://promptwatch.com/pricing · Plan comparison table, AI Models section, Grok row

**DeepSeek** · Yes — DeepSeek is a listed model row ticked from the Essential plan upward, and the docs place it among API models whose answers reflect training knowledge rather than today's search results.

> DeepSeek
> — https://promptwatch.com/pricing · Plan comparison table, AI Models section, DeepSeek row

**Meta AI** · Yes — Meta coverage is sold as the Llama model rather than the Meta AI assistant surface: the row reads Facebook (Meta) Llama and is ticked on all three published brand plans.

> Facebook (Meta) Llama
> — https://promptwatch.com/pricing · Plan comparison table, AI Models section, Facebook Llama row

**Coverage in the vendor’s words** · Yes — Plan cards promise four simultaneously tracked models while the model registry is larger, and the documented gate is that only the non-paid Explore entry tier is restricted to ChatGPT.

> Plan gating is separate from selection: the entry-level Explore plan tracks ChatGPT only, and every other plan unlocks all active models.
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/choosing-your-models · How model selection works section, final paragraph

## What it reports

**Names the cited sources** · Yes — Citation analysis reports which domains and pages the engines cite, including third-party pages that mention competitors instead of you, and which content formats carry those citations.

> Offsite mentions track where your brand appears on third-party websites that AI models cite in their answers: news articles, blog posts, review sites, comparison pages.
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/offsite-mentions · What offsite mentions are section

**Competitor tracking** · Yes — Competitors are set once per project and compared in a brand-by-model heatmap, so rival visibility sits in the same view as your own on every tracked engine.

> The Competitor Visibility Heatmap is a matrix: one row per brand, one column per AI model, and each cell holds that brand's average visibility score on that model for the selected period.
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/competitors-and-heatmap · What the heatmap shows section

**Brand sentiment** · Yes — Sentiment is scored per response on a 100-point scale with a trend, a distribution and a breakdown by prompt type, and you can drill into the individual answers dragging the score down.

> Visibility tells you how often AI models mention your brand; sentiment tells you what they say when they do.
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/sentiment-tracking · What sentiment tracking answers section

**Recommendations** · Yes — An Action Board turns the monitoring data into a prioritised kanban of concrete GEO tasks maintained by an agent, so the product prescribes work rather than only reporting numbers.

> The Action Board is a kanban board of concrete GEO tasks, generated from your project's data.
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/action-board · What is the Action Board? section

**AI crawler analytics** · Partly — Crawler log ingestion and Agent Analytics are real but gated: the Crawler Logs row is crossed out on the entry Essential plan and starts at 25M log lines on Professional.

> Promptwatch shows you in real time which AI agents are on your website. Track AI crawler activity and know which pages ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and AI Overviews are indexing.
> — https://promptwatch.com/features/agent-analytics · Hero subheading; tier limit from the Crawler Logs row of the pricing comparison table

## Plans and signing up

**Prompt or credit allowance** · Yes — Allowances are published per plan in prompts and collected responses: the entry Essential plan carries 50 prompts and 6,000 responses a month, with responses the metered quota.

> 50 Prompts
> — https://promptwatch.com/pricing · Brands plan cards, Essential card feature list

**Projects or brands** · Yes — Projects scale with the plan: one on Essential, two on Professional, five on Business, and the separate agency ladder sells unlimited client and pitch projects.

> Unlimited Projects & Pitch Projects
> — https://promptwatch.com/pricing · Agencies tab, Kick-off plan card feature list

**Countries** · Yes — Each monitor carries its own country and language so other markets are trackable from the entry plan, while state- and city-level granularity is held back for the Business tier.

> Country Level Tracking
> — https://promptwatch.com/pricing · Brands plan cards, Essential card feature list; State and City Level Tracking appears only from Business

**How often it checks** · Yes — Daily is the published cadence on all three brand plans, and the docs confirm daily is the default for standard plans with slower cadences only for organisations given the custom-frequency feature.

> The default, and what every standard plan uses, is daily.
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/data-freshness · How often prompts run section

**Self-serve signup** · Yes — Two self-serve plan ladders are published with a trial button on the cheaper tiers, though the Business card and the Custom tier route to a demo or sales call instead.

> Promptwatch has two self-serve plan ladders plus a custom tier, because a brand tracking itself and an agency managing many clients scale on different axes
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/plans-and-billing · The plan tracks section, opening sentence

## Access and integrations

**API** · Yes — A documented REST API with v1 and v2 surfaces, X-API-Key authentication and published rate limits is included from the entry Essential plan, not sold as an add-on.

> MCP and API access
> — https://promptwatch.com/pricing · Brands plan cards, Essential card feature list

**MCP server** · Yes — A hosted MCP server lets assistants query the account's visibility, citation and traffic data directly, and it is included on the entry Essential plan alongside the REST API.

> The Promptwatch MCP (Model Context Protocol) server lets AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible clients query your Promptwatch data directly.
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/mcp/introduction · What is the Promptwatch MCP? section

**BI export** · Partly — A Looker Studio connector reads through the API with a read-only project key, one data source per project, but the Data Studio Integration row is crossed out on the entry Essential plan.

> The Looker Studio connector pulls your Promptwatch data into Looker Studio (formerly Google Data Studio), so you can build dashboards that blend AI visibility with your other marketing data.
> — https://promptwatch.com/docs/academy/data-studio-connector · Opening paragraph; tier limit from the Data Studio Integration row of the pricing comparison table
