Brand Radar is Ahrefs' AI visibility tool that tracks how any brand shows up in AI search in over 300+ million search-backed prompts (modeled after real keywords from our databse, asked by real humans).

With it, you can benchmark your AI share of voice against competitors, identify top cited pages and domains, and find opportunities to get mentioned in AI answers.

There’s no setup time, and you can search anything: brands, products, regions, and authors.

Brand Radar is a discovery tool that maps out the breadth of your AI funnel across six AI platforms, but also across other channels that influence AI visibility: SEO, YouTube, Reddit, and TikTok.

• YouTube — Brand mentions in video content

• Reddit — Visibility within Reddit threads that appear in SERPs

• TikTok — Brand presence in short-form video

If Brand Radar' AI index was about mapping the breadth of your brand’s AI funnel, custom prompts are about depth monitoring and optimizing for the questions that bring the most sales from AI.

Create custom prompts to track how AI platforms respond to specific questions relevant to your niche.

Brand Radar allows you to check AI responses for 320+ million search-backed prompts across 6 AI platforms. These are derived from People Also Ask questions from our keyword database, so the prompt data mirrors what people are actually looking for (not what most AI visibility tools think they might ask about your brand).

Search for any brand instantly. You'll be able to view how AI responses changed over time as well.

Brand Radar is not just limited to brands. It allows you to monitor products, regions, and people.

Brand Radar gives you insights not just into AI answers, but also the sources that influence it: SEO, Reddit, YouTube, TikTok.

There is no cap on the number of brands or domains you can analyze.

Pay based on how regularly you check AI, rather than the number of prompts alone.
​
Tracking custom prompts uses up a limit called "Checks". Reducing the frequency that AI is prompted will reduce the checks consumed.
