## Give this to your agent

```text
Using RouterGrowth, run this workflow: Check where ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity mention our developer tool across 60 prompts and find the gaps versus 5 competitors.
Show me the price before every call, and stop after each stage with a sample of the results so I can adjust.

1. Pick the prompts: aeo.keywords x 6 searches. What people actually ask assistants in the category, with volume.
2. Ask the assistants: aeo.answer x 240 (60 prompts x 4). Each prompt against 4 assistants, answers with citations.
3. Track the mentions: aeo.mentions x 6 brands. Share of voice for you and the competitors you named.
4. Read what gets cited: web.scrape x 120 cited pages, seo.serp x 60 (Google comparison). The sources assistants lean on are the pages to beat or to be on.

Budget for one run: about $6.25. Run routergrowth inspect on any capability before the first call to confirm the quote.
```

## Why this works

Developers ask assistants for a tool and take the first one that comes with a code sample. Documentation and repositories are the cited sources.

What the run hands back:

> Which tools each assistant recommends per prompt, and the docs, repos and posts it cites.

## The workflow, stage by stage

Pick the prompts → Ask the assistants → Track the mentions → Read what gets cited

| # | Stage | Calls | Cost |
|---|---|---|---:|
| 1 | Pick the prompts | `aeo.keywords` x 6 | $0.11 |
| 2 | Ask the assistants | `aeo.answer` x 240 | $4.20 |
| 3 | Track the mentions | `aeo.mentions` x 6 | $1.06 |
| 4 | Read what gets cited | `web.scrape` x 120, `seo.serp` x 60 | $0.88 |

One run: $6.25 for 432 calls. Assumptions: 2 contacts per account unless the brief says otherwise, 70% email find rate, 90% verification pass, 3 emails per contact, 30% LinkedIn accept rate. Prices are the catalog's at the time this page was built; `routergrowth inspect` returns the exact quote before a call.

## Questions

### How do I check whether ChatGPT mentions my brand?

aeo.answer asks the assistant a prompt with web search on and returns the answer with every source it cites. Run it across the prompts your buyers use and count where you are named.

### Which assistants can be tracked?

ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity for answers. aeo.mentions adds where a brand or domain appears in Google AI Mode and ChatGPT across a wider set of questions.

### How do I choose the prompts?

aeo.keywords shows how often questions are asked to AI assistants, with a monthly trend. Start from the questions with volume in your category and add the ones your sales team hears.

### What do I do with the result?

Read the cited sources. The pages an assistant leans on for a prompt are the pages to be mentioned on or to outdo, and that list is the plan.

### What does this workflow cost to run?

About $6.25 for one run of 432 calls. Each call is quoted before it runs and a lookup that finds nothing is not charged, so the figure is a ceiling. There is no subscription: the run is paid from a prepaid balance.
