  1. 01. COMPARE THE MARKET

    See how your brand compares with competitors.

    Ask one buyer question and compare your brand with up to 10 competitors across the default AI services. See mention rate, relative position, and which brands appear together.

    You ask your AICompare Acme CRM with Rival CRM and Legacy CRM for “best startup CRM.”

    Runs across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews.
    Your AI saysAcme CRM has a 60% mention rate and 2.0 relative position. Rival CRM leads at 80%. Three AI services mention both brands.
  2. 02. CREATE A TRACKER

    Save the same competitor check on a schedule.

    Choose a weekly or monthly schedule. Cite42 MCP saves the exact question, brand, competitors, and AI coverage as a Draft for your review.

    You ask your AITrack this comparison every Monday at 09:00 London time.
    Cite42 MCPTracker setup
    Your AI saysWeekly competitor tracker saved as Draft. Monday at 09:00. Estimated cost: 13 credits ($0.13) per run. Nothing runs until activation.
  3. 03. REVIEW COST AND ACTIVATE

    Approve the per-run limit and start tracking.

    Activation authorizes the current estimate as the cost ceiling. Later runs use current AI-service prices up to that ceiling. Cite42 pauses before calling an AI model only when the estimate rises above it.

The example is 13 credits ($0.13) for one prompt across the 3 default AI services. A tracker with multiple prompts multiplies that estimate by the number of saved prompts. You confirm the complete run ceiling at activation, and Cite42 pauses the tracker for review if a later estimate exceeds it.

It stores every completed competitor comparison: the buyer question, your brand, each competitor’s mention rate and relative position, which AI services mentioned each name, and which brand pairs appeared together.
One comparison tracker accepts your brand and 1 to 10 competitors, shared by up to 30 prompts. Use a second tracker for a different brand or a different competitive field.
A co-mention shows that two brands appeared in the same AI answer. Its count is how many selected AI services mentioned both brands for that tracked prompt.
Yes. An authorized AI agent can list trackers and retrieve stored reports through the tracker MCP tools.
Each saved prompt uses AI Competitor Compare pricing. One prompt costs $0.13 across the three default AI services or $0.20 across all five. Multiply that by the number of saved prompts. Tracker management and stored reports are free.
Runs use current AI-service prices up to the ceiling you authorize at activation. Cite42 pauses the tracker for review only when the current estimate rises above that ceiling.
