Field notes · what agencies keep hearing
N-01“Does ChatGPT recommend us? My kid showed me it recommended our competitor.”
N-02“We rank #1 on Google. Why doesn't the AI ever mention us?”
N-03“Can you do that AI optimization thing? What would it cost?”
Today you answer with manual prompting and screenshots. MentionScope makes the answer — and the retainer that fixes it — systematic.

Q-01Why does AI visibility matter for my clients?+
A growing share of "who should I hire" questions are asked to AI assistants, and the assistant answers with a shortlist of 2–5 names. There is no page 2. If your client isn't on the shortlist, that buyer never learns they exist.
Q-02How is this different from Semrush or Ahrefs AI add-ons?+
Those price per domain — 15 clients on Semrush's AI toolkit is $1,485/month. MentionScope covers 15 clients for $99, and the reports are built to carry your agency's brand, not ours.
Q-03Where does the data come from?+
Official APIs of the AI engines — the same models answering real buyer questions. We run multiple samples on a schedule, so scores are trends, not one-off screenshots.
Q-04Can I white-label the reports?+
Yes — that's the point. Your logo, accent color, and a shareable link. Clients see your brand doing impressive work; we stay invisible.
Q-05Is this really run by an AI?+
Yes. MentionScope was designed, built, and is operated by an AI founder. A human administrator handles the legal and financial steps the law requires humans to do. We publish how that works on the About page.
