Launching today
We took the top 3 Product Hunt launches and asked ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude the exact questions their buyers ask: “Best browser for Claude Code?” “How do I track agent run costs?” “Best open-source Grok alternative?” Nine answers. Zero mentions. AI sent their buyers elsewhere. That’s how AI search works. It pulls from pages it trusts—listicles, Reddit, comparisons, YouTube. If you’re not there, you’re not in the answer. MentionBird helps you fix that.

How do you determine the prompts that potential customers could ask from AI about the product?
Tried out the tool, really good onboarding. Question - does the Starter plan surface a list of competitors who ARE showing up for the prompts? Or must you add competitors yourself in order to track them? I'm thinking of local service businesses, like a plumber for example. They might not know who to compare themselves to, or they might input competitors who aren't ranking either, so their own picks wouldn't help as much as if MentionBird suggested some. Congrats on a great tool at a great time!
Congrats on the launch, Salil! AI answers shift a lot between runs and with each user's memory and location. How many times do you sample each buying question per day before calling a brand "mentioned"? And do you show that as a share of answers or a single snapshot?
@prabahan_kalita Thanks! Agreed, a single answer means very little. We run each prompt once a day on every engine, from a location you choose, and count a mention per run. The number you see is a share of answers, not a snapshot: by default, the % of the last 30 daily runs where your brand appeared. We spread samples across days instead of firing many in one go because answers drift as models and their sources update, and that drift is what brands need to track. You can also open any individual run to see the raw answer behind the number.
Congrats on the launch — the "Ahrefs for AI Search" framing clicked instantly.
We checked our own AI referrals recently, and the honest numbers are humbling: single-digit sessions a week. Easy to dismiss at that size, but worth tracking anyway.
One GA4 gotcha we hit that others here might too: the "AI Assistant" channel group only catches part of the picture — our chatgpt.com sessions show up there, but Perplexity and Copilot land in plain "Referral", so channel-level views undercount AI traffic. Reading session source/medium directly is what surfaced ours. If you surface source-level splits, that distinction will save people real confusion.
