Step 1 · The question

Are competitors mentioned when you aren’t?

Take one question a Northcove customer might ask. ChatGPT mentions three brands. Northcove isn’t one of them.

InvuAI asks the questions you choose on a schedule and records who is mentioned, in what order, and how often you’re left out.

ChatGPT is checked daily on every plan. Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Mode and AI Overviews are checked weekly on paid plans.

Step 2 · The gap

Find the gaps worth working on

Every Monday, InvuAI groups the questions where your brand is frequently missing. See which competitors appear, which sources are cited, and suggested content or coverage opportunities.

Available on Starter, Growth and Scale. The suggestions are written by AI, so review them before use.

Step 3 · The evidence

Inspect the answers and sources

Before you act on a number, open the answer behind it. Read what each engine said, which brands it mentioned and in what order, and which sites it cited.

When ChatGPT searches the web, you also see the searches it ran and the pages it read.

Step 4 · The action

Turn insights into work you can act on

Each week’s insights end in recommendations: content to publish and sites worth approaching. Add the ones you agree with to your action plan, sort them into To Do or To Investigate Further, and mark them done as your team works through them.

Every item keeps the questions behind it, so you can compare how often you were mentioned on them before and after you added it.

A record of what changed after your work, not proof that the work caused it.

Google results

Review AI visibility alongside Google performance

A strong Google ranking doesn’t guarantee an AI mention, and an AI citation doesn’t tell you how your page ranks. Each keyword is checked weekly in Google’s top 20.

Your position, the page that ranks and its AI Overview

See where you rank, which page Google shows, and whether the AI Overview on that results page mentions you or cites your site.

Whose products Google Shopping shows

For sites that sell online: which products appear for your keywords and where yours sit. Sites without a shop can switch Shopping off.

Setup

Start with the questions that matter to your customers

Start with the questions people ask before they buy. Add more or pause questions as your tracking needs change.

Use the questions you already know

Write them in, or upload a CSV with your own tags. Mark the questions that name your brand, so you can filter them out and see how often you come up when people haven’t asked about you.

Or have InvuAI suggest them

Give the prompt generator your category, country and language, and choose the buying stages, from early research to ready to buy. Tick the suggestions you want to keep.

Add the Google keywords

Type them in, or pick from ideas based on what your site already ranks for and the searches ChatGPT ran while answering your questions.

Google rankings usually arrive within an hour. Your first ChatGPT answers arrive the next morning, UK time.

Who it’s for

Work across brands, markets and clients

In-house teams

Set a shared baseline for your brand in each market, see which competitors are mentioned instead, and prioritise content opportunities to investigate.

Agencies

Keep each client and market in its own project. Invite your team to work across client projects, review the weekly gaps and follow what changed.

Freelancers and consultants

Build a first audit for a client from their own questions, with the answers and sources behind each gap, then repeat the checks over time. Export the figures to CSV on paid plans.

Every paid plan includes unlimited team members.

Questions before you start

Which AI engines are included, and how often are they checked?

ChatGPT is checked every day on every plan. Paid plans also check Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Mode and Google AI Overviews once a week. Google keywords are checked weekly on every plan.

AI Overviews come up in two ways. On every plan, InvuAI checks whether an AI Overview appears in your tracked Google keyword results, and whether it mentions or cites you. On paid plans, your tracked prompts are also put to AI Overviews as one of the additional AI engines.

How is this different from checking answers myself?

InvuAI asks your chosen questions on a schedule, in your market, and stores every answer. You can compare results over time, see which competitors were mentioned instead and review the sources cited, without keeping your own screenshots or spreadsheet.

How do I choose the questions to track?

Start with the questions customers ask when comparing products, choosing a provider or getting ready to buy. Write your own, upload a CSV, or use the prompt generator: give it your category, country, language and the buying stages you care about, and pick from its suggestions.

Does this measure how many customers saw my brand?

No. AI assistants don’t share impression data, so no tool can say how often your brand was shown. InvuAI measures how your brand appears in the questions you track, in your market, and keeps the history so you can follow the trend.

What’s included in the free plan?

5 prompts checked daily in ChatGPT, 25 Google keywords checked weekly (with AI Overview and Shopping checks where applicable), branded search demand and 1 project. No credit card is required.

Can I use it with colleagues and across markets?

Yes. Every paid plan includes unlimited team members. Each project tracks one country, so you add a project per market: 3 on Starter, 5 on Growth and unlimited on Scale.
