Common starting points
Marketing or executive review
Start with Brand Insights when you need a high-level view of visibility, context, competitive position, commerce representation, or leadership and finance context. Use the report scope and evidence before treating a finding as strategic fact.
GEO, SEO, or content investigation
Start with Prompt Universe to identify important question spaces. Use Prompt Explorer for a current investigation and Prompt Observatory when the same question should be monitored over time.
Engineering or infrastructure investigation
Start with AI Traffic when you need request-level, page-access, status, bot-identity, policy, referral, or measurement-health evidence. Use GEO Audit for a scoped diagnostic.
When two products are needed
- Brand Insights may show weak citation presence; Prompt Intelligence can identify the prompts and cited sources involved.
- Prompt Intelligence may show a recommendation; AI Traffic can measure whether AI-referred users arrived and what they did, but it cannot assume that a specific prompt caused a session.
- AI Traffic may show successful bot access; Brand Insights can show whether the brand appears in responses, but access does not prove citation or use.
Use cross-product evidence as complementary context. Do not combine it into a causal claim unless direct evidence supports that relationship.
