Recommendations: an action plan to improve AI visibility

Recommendations provides AI-generated, evidence-based suggestions to improve your brand's visibility in AI search. It analyzes your prompt data and generates actionable recommendations across three focus areas.

Each recommendation is prioritized and grouped by category so you can see at a glance which actions will move the needle most.

With Recommendations, you can:

• Get a prioritized, evidence-based action plan built from your own prompt and citation data
• See exactly which moves will improve your AI visibility fastest, and why
• Turn raw analytics into concrete next steps instead of guessing what to do
• Hand your team or client a clear to-do list grounded in real AI search data

What it does

• Generates recommendations in several categories:
  • AI Visibility: Improve how often and how prominently AI models mention your brand
  • Social & UGC: Strengthen your presence on Reddit, YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram (the platforms covered depend on which channels you have connected) to influence what AI models read and cite
  • PR & Citation Building: Earn brand mentions and citations on the external domains AI models trust through PR and outreach
  • Sentiment & Reputation: Repair negative sentiment and win narratives where competitors are praised (Scale plan and above)
• Each recommendation includes priority level (high, medium, low), estimated impact, and specific action items
• Recommendations are generated weekly and can be tracked as completed or archived

How to use it

1. Navigate to Recommendations in the sidebar (under Optimization)
2. Click Generate Recommendations to create a new set
3. Review recommendations by priority, high-priority items have the most impact
4. Mark items as completed or archived as you implement them
5. Generate new recommendations periodically to get updated suggestions

Steering the recommendations

In Project Settings > Recommendations you can steer what the AI recommends for your brand:

• Guidance for recommendations: describe constraints or focus areas in your own words (for example "We cannot publish competitor comparisons" or "Focus on our enterprise product line"). This guidance applies to every recommendation type.
• Paid placements: control whether recommendations may include paid link or sponsored placement options. By default this follows your brand profile: large, well-known brands never get paid placement suggestions.
• Competitor comparison content: control whether recommendations may propose comparison pages or rankings that name competitors. By default, large brands and regulated industries (banking, insurance, healthcare) never get these suggestions.

The AI also calibrates suggestions to your brand automatically: it classifies your project's size and industry so that a global enterprise gets PR and original-data plays rather than small-business outreach tactics.

Tips & notes

• Recommendations are based on your actual prompt execution data, not generic advice
• Opening a recommendation shows the specific data points it is based on (the queries, citations, or threads behind it) so you can verify the evidence
• The AI analyzes your mentions, citations, sentiment, and competitor positioning to generate targeted suggestions
• You can customize which recommendation types are enabled in Project Settings
• The number of recommendations scales with how much data supports them: a thin dataset returns a short list (or none) instead of padded filler
• One regeneration per week is included; additional regenerations may be limited by plan
