AI Answers Lab guide

Start with the sample

Open the sample: one set (invoicing for plumbers, with fictional products) and three weekly checks of generated answers. No AI is asked.

Save a set and check it

1. 1

   Name your product

   Add your product and any other names it goes by.

2. 2

   Add rivals and questions

   Up to 10 rivals and up to 15 questions, written the way a buyer would ask, such as best invoicing app for plumbers.

3. 3

   Press Check now

   Desktop asks your AI each question in turn and saves its answers. The check runs from the app, not from your AI.

4. 4

   Watch it

   A watched set asks again after 7 days while Desktop is open.

The three views

• Who it names: for each name, how many answers named it and its share, its average place, how often it came first, and whether it was listed or recommended. Other names the AI said show as Others.
• By question: the order the AI said the names, your place, and the full answer with names marked.
• Over time: each name's share by check, and per question the names gained or lost since the last check.

Honest limits

• These are the answers of your own AI. Other people, other AIs and other days can get different answers.
• A failed question is left out, not counted as a miss. Share is over answered questions.
• A name is counted when it appears as a whole word. Editing a rival recounts the history.
• It tells you what your AI says, not what is true.
