Sampled, not guessed

One AI answer is an anecdote. PromptPulse measures the pattern.

Ask ChatGPT the same question twice and you can get two different answers. So every prompt is asked several times on every run, and every score comes with a margin of error.

  • The shaded band is the margin. A week that stays inside it is noise, not news.
  • Alerts fire only when a change clears the noise — so you act on real movement.

How PromptPulse measures it

Built to be trusted, not just believed.

Tracked on a schedule

Your high-intent prompts run weekly across ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity, plus Gemini and Google's AI Overviews and AI Mode if you choose — not once, as a one-off audit.

Sampled, not guessed

Every prompt is asked several times per run and reported with a margin of error. Alerts fire only when a change clears the noise.

Source-level fixes

Not just that you're missing. The specific pages, threads, and directories where competitors get cited and you don't.

The Fix-It Playbook

Every gap becomes a task, with the source attached.

Citations are traced to the exact page, not summarized into a score. See which domains competitors get cited from — and which prompts you have no coverage of at all.
