SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Brand visibility on AI search surfaces is scattered and often invisible; this skill tracks where a brand and its competitors appear across multiple AI search sources, collecting citations and brand mentions to provide measurable surface-of-visibility insights.

  • Multi-source coverage across Google AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Copilot, and Gemini to surface results.
  • Automated data pipeline: per-prompt, per-source, per-entity rows are written to a named dataset; full raw results are stored in a KV store; a Markdown snapshot is produced for human review.
  • Scheduled operation via OS cron/launchd with a local .env loading APIFY_TOKEN to enable recurring checks and historicalDiffs.
