AI search engines give.
AnswerOS scans hundreds of buyer prompts across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity to show whether your brand is mentioned, at what position, and with what sentiment — then tells you exactly what to fix.
How AnswerOS works — and how to use it
From initial setup to AI search optimization in six simple steps.
Create your account
Sign up with email or Google via Clerk. The free tier is ready immediately with no credit card required; upgrade anytime from billing.
Add your company domain
Tell AnswerOS which brand domain to track. Automatic normalization validates your domain at the API boundary.
Review your AI prompt set
AnswerOS builds a curated library plus AI-suggested buyer questions with opportunity scores. Archive what's irrelevant; keep what matters.
Run your first scan
One click queues an async background scan across your enabled AI engines (Gemini, Groq, NVIDIA NIM, OpenAI, Claude, Perplexity).
Read your visibility report
View a weighted 0–100 visibility score (Overall, Branded, and Organic), per-factor breakdown, competitor leaderboard, and top cited sources.
Act on recommendations and track
Execute prioritized, evidence-based recommendations (comparison landing pages, FAQ schema, positioning), re-scan, and monitor trends over time.
A visibility score that's honest and actionable
Your score is computed server-side from real scan results — never estimated or fabricated client-side.
Percentage of prompt checks where your brand is mentioned.
Positioning of your brand when recommended (#1 vs #2+).
Emotional tone (Positive, Neutral, Negative) in AI answers.
Share of mentions compared to competing industry brands.
Citation authority (Neutral MVP 50% baseline).
Server-Calculated Scoring & Honest 95 MVP Ceiling
Every score factor is computed by a pure server-side algorithm with error rows excluded. Because source authority uses a constant neutral baseline, the MVP maximum reachable score is capped at 95/100 until deeper web citation crawling is released.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about AI search visibility and AnswerOS.
What does AnswerOS actually scan?
AnswerOS scans buyer-intent questions across up to 6 AI search providers (Google Gemini, Groq, NVIDIA NIM, OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, and Perplexity). Each check evaluates whether your brand is mentioned, at what position, with what sentiment, and what competitors/citations appear. Results are cached in Redis with a 24-hour TTL to save AI costs.
How long does a scan take?
Scans execute asynchronously in the background via Trigger.dev worker tasks so nothing blocks your web browser. A typical scan across 15+ prompt checks finishes in just 2 to 5 minutes.
What is the visibility score and how is it calculated?
Your visibility score is a 0–100 metric calculated strictly server-side using five weighted factors: Mention Rate (30%), Average Rank (25%), Sentiment (20%), Competitor Share (15%), and Source Authority (10%). The current MVP maximum score ceiling is 95/100 until deeper web crawler data is released.
What's included in the free tier?
The free tier includes full domain onboarding, prompt workspace access, and AI search visibility scans across all free AI models (Gemini, Groq LPU, and NVIDIA NIM). Premium models (OpenAI ChatGPT, Anthropic Claude, Perplexity) unlock when you subscribe.
Do I need a credit card to try it?
No! You can sign up with email or Google, onboard your domain, review your prompts, and run your first scan on the free tier without entering any credit card details.
How is my company data handled?
We only store your company domain, competitor domains, prompt set, and scan result metrics required to compute your dashboard. All product analytics are telemetry-only with strict no-PII enforcement.
