Modern LLMs don’t answer prompts directly — they fan out into sub-queries, search each one, then synthesise. The reasoning trail captured live during this audit is below. The keywords AI is exploring most often are where your next content opportunities live.

Original prompt: Which AI Visibility Tracker solution is the best value?
Each row below is a sub-query the AI engines explored during this audit. If you don’t currently rank organically for these queries, you are missing a primary AI citation pathway. These are discrete, actionable content gaps you can close.
Opportunities are ranked by frequency. Audit your current organic ranking for each in your preferred SEO tool, then prioritise the high-frequency queries where you rank below position 10.
Prompts are grouped into intent clusters that reflect how real buyers search. Each card includes buyer-journey context explaining why that cluster matters commercially.
The spread between tryprofound.com's strongest cluster (Category leadership, 69.8%) and weakest (Pricing and procurement, 37.2%) is 33 percentage points. This tells you where AI engines associate tryprofound.com with the category — and where they don't. The weakest cluster is typically the highest-ROI target for new content, because you're starting from a low base where even small improvements are visible.
When AI engines mention tryprofound.com, what tone do they use? Sentiment is classified per-mention across 517 total brand references. The dominant frame is positive.
The sentiment distribution is within normal range. Monitor it quarterly to catch any drift before it compounds.
Authority signals triangulated across Ahrefs Domain Rating and Moz Domain Authority, alongside referring-domain count and organic traffic value for full context. Higher authority correlates with higher AI citation rates — engines trust domains that the wider web trusts.
tryprofound.com is punching above its link profile. Organic traffic value of $44k/mo is well above the cohort median ($2k/mo) and triangulated authority (58) is above the median (53) — yet referring domains (425) sit below the cohort median (1,789). This is unusually efficient: every backlink tryprofound.com earns is doing more work than for a typical competitor. Maintain link velocity and the gap to traffic-leaders compounds in your favour.
| Domain | Triangulated | Ahrefs DR | Moz DA | Ref domains | Organic kws | Organic traffic value | Sources |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| tryprofound.com ★ | 58.0 | 76.0 | 40.0 | 425 | 1,476 | $43.9k/mo | ahrefs_dr, moz_da |
| otterly.ai | 52.5 | 71.0 | 34.0 | 2,163 | 725 | $1.9k/mo | ahrefs_dr, moz_da |
| peec.ai | 53.0 | 71.0 | 35.0 | 1,789 | 402 | $1.3k/mo | ahrefs_dr, moz_da |

Five prioritised actions derived directly from the audit data. Each includes an impact rating, timeline, and specific implementation steps.
Full transparency on the audit methodology, data collection, and classifier reliability.
Claude, Chatgpt, Perplexity, Gemini, Ai Overviews. Each engine was queried independently with the same prompt panel. Responses were captured in full and classified by an AI classifier for brand mention, position, citation type, and sentiment.
963 of 1,125 responses were successfully classified (85.6% success rate). 162 responses failed classification and were excluded from the SOV denominator to avoid deflating scores.
The brand name “tryprofound.com” overlaps with common English vocabulary. When an AI engine uses the word in a non-brand context, our classifier conservatively marks the response as ambiguous rather than guessing. This protects the accuracy of the SOV figures by ensuring only confident classifications are counted. The 963 successfully classified responses provide a robust sample for all metrics in this report.
SOV figures carry a ±6 percentage-point confidence interval at the 95% level. This means the true share of voice is within 6 points of the reported figure in 95 out of 100 repeated audits.
