15 questions shown
The basics
What is AI visibility?
The observable presence and positioning of a brand in AI generated answers, recommendations, comparisons and cited sources for relevant prompts.
Is this a ranking tool?
No. AI answers have no fixed ranking. BrandWater reports how often and how you appear across a defined sample.
Who is BrandWater AI for?
Marketing, SEO, content, growth and agency teams responsible for how a business is discovered and described in AI powered experiences.
Measurement
How does BrandWater measure brand mentions?
It evaluates observed answers against your prompts, topics and Brand Intelligence, preserving the answer and evidence behind every measurement.
Why do you show sample sizes?
AI answers vary between runs. Showing how many observations sit behind each rate keeps results honest.
Can BrandWater show which sources AI uses?
When an answer exposes sources, BrandWater preserves those URLs and domains for source and citation analysis.
Platforms and India
Which AI platforms does BrandWater monitor?
At launch: ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity, observed through their provider APIs. Coming: Claude in V2, Copilot, and Google AI Mode and AI Overviews as separate surfaces. DeepSeek is not on the current roadmap. Our AI platforms pages still cover usage of all seven, with sources.
Do you have India usage data?
Where reliable figures are published we show them with sources and dates. Where none exist, for example Copilot and DeepSeek in India, we say so.
Can I track prompts in Hindi and other languages?
Yes. Prompts can be written in the languages your customers use, and results can be compared by language.
Product and actions
Does BrandWater automatically change my website?
No. At launch it is recommendation only, so you make the changes. Approval based execution and verification are coming in V3.
How is this different from traditional SEO tools?
It focuses on how AI describes, recommends, compares and cites a brand, and connects those observations to diagnosis and recommended action. Verification is coming in V3.
Do I need Google Search Console or GA4?
No. They are optional, coming in V2, and never block the first audit.
Data and trust
Does BrandWater access private model data?
No. It observes public answers only and does not claim access to private vector databases, hidden reasoning, private training data or internal retrieval systems.
Does the website show real customer results?
No customer results are shown. Product previews use sample numbers, each labelled "Sample data", and your own audit shows your real results. Statistics about AI platforms are third party figures, dated and linked to their sources.
How is my data kept separate from other brands?
Each brand has its own Brand Intelligence, prompts, observations and evidence, and access is managed per person.
