Minimal AI Visibility Sentinel

A simple dashboard to track your product's mentions in ChatGPT/Perplexity answers

Problem

AI search is replacing traditional search, but founders don't know if their product is recommended by ChatGPT or Perplexity. Manual testing doesn't scale, and existing AI search trackers are bloated enterprise dashboards charging $200/mo—small teams can't afford or need them.

Solution

Solves one core question: is my product/brand mentioned and how well ranked in major AI search answers? Users set a few seed questions, the tool periodically queries AI and parses answers, giving a simple visibility score and trend without complex charts.

Users

Early-stage founders, indie developers, and growth leads at small teams

MVP

Set brand name and 5-10 monitoring questions; scheduled ChatGPT/Perplexity API calls; parse and flag brand presence and position; show daily/weekly visibility changes; email alerts for significant fluctuations

Revenue

Subscription tiered by number of questions and query frequency, or freemium with 1 question and paid unlocks

Why now

AI search is quickly changing traffic entry points; enterprise tools are expensive and heavy, leaving many small teams needing lightweight alternatives, while API costs are now affordable for individuals
