Introducing WP AI Visibility Tracker: Track AI Mentions

We’re excited to introduce WP AI Visibility Tracker, a new WordPress plugin that shows how often your brand appears in AI answers on Google and ChatGPT.   

People ask ChatGPT and Google’s AI which brand to pick. If yours isn’t included in those answers, there’s no easy way to know.   

The WP AI Visibility Tracker plugin pulls AI search data from the DataForSEO API and turns it into reports inside your WordPress dashboard. You can track brand mentions, measure share of voice, compare competitors, and see which websites AI cites.   

Let’s explore what you can do with WP AI Visibility Tracker!

1. Track Your Brand’s AI Search Visibility

Get an overview of how your brand appears in AI-generated answers through detailed visibility reports.

The plugin provides several key metrics to help you understand your brand’s presence:

• AI Mentions: See how many times your brand appears in AI-generated answers and compare the results with competitors.
• AI Search Demand: View the AI search volume associated with your brand.
• AI Share of Voice: Understand your brand’s share of all AI mentions among the brands you’re tracking.
• AI Visibility Ranking: See where your brand stands compared to other tracked brands.

These summary cards provide a quick overview of your brand’s AI search performance.

2. Compare Your Brand Against Competitors

Understand how your brand performs against competing businesses with the Competitor Comparison feature.

Add your primary brand and select one or more competitors to generate a comparison report.

The comparison includes:

• Share of Voice (SOV): Compare each brand’s share of AI mentions.
• Mentions: See how frequently each brand appears in AI answers.
• AI Search Volume (ASV): Compare the AI search volume associated with each brand.
• Change Indicators: Review trend indicators for tracked brands.

The comparison table ranks all tracked brands by AI Share of Voice and highlights the winner (highest share).

This makes it easier to understand your competitive position in AI search results.

3. Discover Cited Sources and Uncited Search Results

Find out which websites and domains AI platforms use when generating answers about your brand.

WP AI Visibility Tracker separates these findings into two tables:

• Cited Sources: Displays domains that AI actually cited as sources in its answers.   
• Search Results (Uncited): Shows domains that appeared in search results but were not cited in the AI-generated answers.

Both tables display domains against each tracked brand, helping you identify which sources are associated with your brand and competitors.

You can also switch between Mentions and AI Search Volume to change the displayed values.   

Additional filters let you categorize domains as:

• All   

• Third-party   

• Self-promotion   

These insights help you understand the sources contributing to brand visibility across AI search.

4. Analyze AI Visibility with Interactive Charts

Explore your brand’s AI search performance through visual reports and charts.

The plugin includes several visualizations to help you understand visibility trends and competitive performance.

Available charts and insights include:

• Share of Voice Chart: View the current distribution of AI Share of Voice among tracked brands.
• AI Mentions by Platform: Compare brand mentions across Google and ChatGPT.
• AI Search Volume Breakdown: Review AI search volume across both platforms for all tracked brands.
• Ranked Cited Sources: Explore cited domains ranked alongside their mentions and AI search volume.

These visual reports make it easier to identify performance differences and understand how your brand appears across AI platforms.

5. Explore Related Brand Mentions

Discover other brands that AI search associates with your primary brand.

The Related Brand Mentions section shows relevant brands, their AI mentions, and AI search volume.

This provides additional insight into brands that appear in similar AI search contexts and helps you understand the competitive landscape around your business.

6. Generate Historical Visibility Trends

Track changes in AI visibility over a selected period with historical trend reporting.

The plugin lets you enable historical trend generation in its settings and include historical data in reports.

You can configure:

• Historical Trend Generation: Enable or disable historical trend data.
• Start Date: Define the beginning of your reporting period.
• End Date: Set the end of the reporting period.

This helps you review AI visibility data across selected dates and understand changes in your brand’s performance over time.

7. Customize Reports by Platform, Location, and Language

WP AI Visibility Tracker provides filters that let you configure reports according to your tracking requirements.

When generating a report, you can select:

• Primary Brand: Enter the brand name or domain you want to track.
• Competitors: Add one or more competing brands.
• Platform: Google, ChatGPT, or Both.
• Sort By: Choose how you want results ordered, such as by highest AI search volume.
• Location: Select the country for which you want to retrieve results.
• Language: Choose the language for the report.
• Date Range: Set the start and end dates.
• Historical Trend: Choose whether to include historical trend data.

These filters let you generate reports for specific brands, competitors, locations, languages, and reporting periods.

8. Configure DataForSEO and Brandfetch API Settings

The plugin connects with external services to retrieve AI search visibility data and display brand information.

To get started, configure the required credentials under the AI Visibility settings tab.

The settings include:

• DataForSEO Login: Enter your DataForSEO API login.
