ChatGPT answers, unedited

Yes. There are several platforms now that track AI Share of Voice (AI SOV) — essentially, how often your brand appears in AI-generated answers compared with competitors, and how that changes over time. The category is often also called AI visibility, LLM visibility, or Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) analytics. Siftly Semrush

Some options:

A typical dashboard will let you answer questions like:

• “When someone asks AI ‘best software for X industry’, how often are we mentioned?”
• “Are competitors gaining share in ChatGPT answers?”
• “Which prompts/categories are we losing?”
• “Did our content or PR campaigns increase AI visibility?”
• “How does our AI presence compare with our traditional SEO market position?”

A few things to check before choosing:

• Prompt coverage: Does it let you define the actual buyer questions in your industry, or only generic prompts?
• Competitor tracking: Can you add your real competitive set?
• Model coverage: Does it include the AI surfaces your customers use (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI results)?
• Historical baseline: Many tools only start collecting data after signup, so “trends” may not mean years of historical data. Presenc AI

If you tell me your industry (e.g., SaaS, healthcare, finance, ecommerce, agency, travel) and whether you care more about competitor benchmarking or measuring your own GEO efforts, I can narrow this down.

Yes. A number of newer AI search visibility / Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) platforms track something very close to “AI share of voice” — i.e., how often your brand appears in AI-generated answers compared with competitors, and how that changes over time. Siftly LLM Pulse

Some platforms to look at:

A typical setup works like this:

1. Define your industry/category and competitor set.
2. Create a library of buyer prompts (e.g., “best CRM for startups,” “alternatives to X,” “top cybersecurity vendors”).
3. Run those prompts repeatedly across AI engines.
4. Calculate your AI share of voice:

• % of relevant AI answers that mention your brand
• % of mentions versus competitors
• trend line over weeks/months
• breakdown by model, topic, and intent Siftly LLM Pulse

A few things to check before choosing:

• Prompt transparency: Can you see the exact prompts and answers behind the score?
• Competitor controls: Can you define your own competitive set?
• Model coverage: Does it include the AI products your customers actually use?
• Historical trends: Does it keep time-series data, or only show today’s snapshot?
• Citation tracking: Does it show why AI mentioned a brand (sources, pages, citations)?

If you tell me your industry (e.g., SaaS, healthcare, finance, ecommerce, agency, etc.) and whether you care more about brand tracking or SEO/GEO optimization, I can narrow this to the few most relevant options.

Yes. The category is usually called AI visibility / AI search share of voice.

• Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit — tracks AI SoV vs. competitors and trends over time, including ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI, etc. Semrush Semrush
• Profound — stronger enterprise option for detailed prompt, citation, and competitive tracking. Stay Digital Marketers
• Peec AI — particularly focused on competitive AI share-of-voice analytics. Benchline Reports
• Visoryn — specifically built around AI SoV leaderboards and historical trends. Visoryn
• SearchDock — tracks SoV across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Google AI Overviews with historical data. SearchDock

If you mean “show me the overall AI share-of-voice trend for my entire industry, not just my brand,” that's a more specific requirement, and I can identify the best platforms for that.

Yes. There’s now a pretty solid category of AI visibility / GEO platforms that measure something close to “AI share of voice” over time—i.e., how often ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, etc. mention or recommend your brand versus competitors.

A few worth looking at:

• ahrefs.com — Best if you want large-scale industry benchmarking. Ahrefs says its index is based on 459M+ modeled prompts and covers ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, Perplexity, Google AI, etc. Ahrefs
• gensiv.com — More directly focused on Share of Voice: competitor comparisons, prompt tracking, citations, and SOV trends over time. Gensiv
• seerly.app — Tracks live prompts across AI engines and explicitly provides category-level SOV and 8-week trends. Seerly
• geoflux.ai — Tracks mentions, visibility, SOV, sentiment and competitors across ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity, with historical trends. GEOflux
• zumihq.com — Interesting if you want a more rigorous measurement layer; it tracks mention rate, SOV, position and citation share and refreshes daily. Zumi
• hubspot.com — Particularly interesting for your industry-level question. It's a free public dashboard showing AI visibility/citation trends by industry across ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity. It doesn't measure your brand, though. HubSpot

The distinction I'd pay attention to

There are really two different products emerging:

1. “How is AI search changing in my industry?”
→ HubSpot's AI Search Sensor, industry benchmark reports, Ahrefs' index.

2. “What percentage of the AI conversation does my company own, and is that changing?”
→ Gensiv, Seerly, GEOflux, Zumi, etc.

If what you're envisioning is something like:

“In SaaS / cybersecurity / healthcare / whatever, show me AI SOV for the top 50 brands from January → September, with ChatGPT vs Gemini vs Perplexity, and tell me who's gaining/losing.”

Yes—that is increasingly available, but the market is still immature. The methodology matters enormously because SOV depends on the exact prompt set, models, geography, frequency, and definition of a “mention.” theStacc Whaily

If you tell me your industry, I can look specifically for the platforms that have the best existing benchmark data for that industry and compare them on coverage, historical trends, pricing, and methodology.

Yes. This is now a real software category, usually called AI visibility, AI search visibility, share of model, or AI share of voice.

The important distinction is whether you want your brand's trend or a whole-industry benchmark.

Platforms worth looking at

• Semrush Enterprise AIO — probably the most directly aligned with your question. It has an AI Share of Voice metric, competitor comparisons, platform breakdowns, and historical trends. It can show how your SoV changes over a selected period. Semrush
• Peec AI — strong for competitive AI visibility and share-of-voice analysis across AI search engines. A 2026 category benchmark specifically identifies it as strong on competitive SoV. Benchline Reports
• Profound — more enterprise-oriented, with deep prompt, citation, competitor, and answer-engine analytics. Good if you want to understand why your share is moving, not just the number. Benchline Reports Tomek Sikora
• Seerly — explicitly tracks AI visibility and share-of-voice trends over weeks/months, including competitor and engine-level views. Seerly
• Rankseer — tracks SoV across ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini and shows trends over time. Rankseer
• GRRO — tracks AI visibility, industry rankings, share of voice, and historical week-over-week/month-over-month data across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Grok. Grro
• HubSpot AI Search Sensor — interesting if you mean "what is happening to AI visibility across my industry?" rather than just your company. It's a free public dashboard with industry-level visibility/citation trends for ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity. It doesn't track an individual brand, though. HubSpot

If I were choosing

I'd think about it this way:

One caveat: "AI share of voice" isn't yet a standardized industry metric. Different platforms calculate it differently—for example, based on mentions, position within an answer, citations, prompt volume, or some combination. So I'd pick one methodology and use it consistently rather than comparing a 20% SoV from one vendor directly with 20% from another. Semrush, for example, incorporates mentions and position and can incorporate topic search volume in its calculation. Semrush

If you tell me your industry + whether you're B2B or B2C, I can narrow this down to the 2–3 platforms that actually have useful benchmarks for your category, including pricing and what their historical data looks like.

Yes. There are now several platforms specifically built around AI / LLM share of voice, including historical trend tracking.

The important distinction is whether you mean:

1. Your brand vs. competitors — e.g. “What % of AI answers about my category mention us?”
2. The whole industry trend — e.g. “How is AI visibility changing across SaaS companies over the last 12 months?”

Strong options

• semrush.com — probably the most established option if you already use Semrush. It tracks AI Share of Voice across ChatGPT, Google AI, Gemini, and Perplexity, including competitor trends over time. Semrush
• llmpulse.ai — specifically focused on AI visibility/SOV. You can track competitors and slice the data by AI platform, country, language, and prompt collection, with daily/weekly/monthly trends. LLM Pulse
• siftly.ai — measures AI conversation share across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews and provides daily/weekly/monthly trend lines. Siftly
• pi-datametrics.com — particularly interesting if you want market/category-level SOV, not just your own brand. It compares up to 30 competitors and has a week-by-week SOV timeline across traditional and AI search surfaces. Pi Datametrics
• surva.ai — tracks competitors across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini and Google AI Overviews, with SOV and historical trend analysis. Surva.ai Surva.ai

There is also hubspot.com, which is particularly relevant to your second interpretation: it's a free public dashboard showing AI visibility/citation trends by industry across ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. It doesn't show your individual brand, but it can tell you whether AI visibility is generally rising/falling in your industry. HubSpot

If you're looking for an "AI market share chart"

I'd narrow it down to Semrush, LLM Pulse, and Pi Datametrics.

If you tell me your industry (e.g. cybersecurity, SaaS, dental, financial services, fashion, etc.), I can find which platform currently has the best industry-level AI SOV data for that specific vertical, and whether you can see historical data going back 6–12+ months.

Yes. AI share of voice (SOV) tracking is now a real category, and several platforms specifically show how your visibility changes over time versus competitors.

Best options

• semrush.com — Probably the strongest mainstream option. It tracks AI share of voice, mentions, average position, competitors, and shows SOV trends over time across AI platforms. Semrush Semrush
• seerly.app — More focused specifically on AI visibility. It has category-level SOV, competitor comparisons, and weekly/monthly trend lines across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and others. Seerly
• siftly.ai — Explicitly built around AI conversation share, with daily/weekly/monthly SOV trends and per-platform breakdowns. Siftly
• getvisoryn.com — Very directly aligned with what you're describing: category benchmarks, competitive leaderboards, prompt groups, engines, and SOV movement over time. Visoryn
• llmrefs.com — Tracks AI visibility, mentions, citations, competitors, and SOV trends with historical dashboards and alerts. LLMrefs
• hubspot.com — Particularly interesting if you mean “show me how AI visibility is changing across my whole industry,” rather than only tracking your own company. Its free Sensor provides industry-level benchmarks and weekly trends; HubSpot says its paid AEO product can track an individual brand and competitors. HubSpot HubSpot

One important distinction

There are really two different products hiding behind your question:

1. “How is my company doing?”

→ Track your brand + competitors across a fixed set of prompts and watch SOV rise/fall over weeks or months.

2. “How is AI visibility changing across my industry?”

→ Track the category itself: which brands are gaining AI visibility, which engines are changing, how often brands are mentioned, what sources AI cites, etc.

For #2, HubSpot's AI Search Sensor and Semrush's AI Visibility Index are particularly interesting. Semrush says its index analyzed 126M+ real U.S. AI prompts across 22 industries and four AI platforms, specifically to identify industry-level visibility trends. AI Visibility Index

If you tell me your industry (e.g. cybersecurity, SaaS, fintech, healthcare, agencies, etc.), I can narrow this down to the 2–3 platforms that actually have the best industry-level trend data for your category, including pricing and what their dashboards measure.

Yes. There are now several platforms specifically built to track AI Share of Voice (SOV)—essentially, how often your brand is mentioned/recommended versus competitors when people ask AI engines questions in your category, and how that changes over time.

Best options right now

• ahrefs.com — probably the strongest choice if you already use Ahrefs. It uses a huge database of real, search-derived prompts and tracks visibility across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, Google AI Overviews, and AI Mode. It also supports historical/competitive analysis. Ahrefs Ahrefs
• seerly.app — particularly focused on Share of Voice trends. It shows category-level SOV, competitor movements, and breakdowns by AI engine, with trends over weeks/months. Seerly
• rankseer.com — purpose-built for AI SOV across ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini, including competitor comparison and historical trends. Rankseer
• zumihq.com — more analytics-oriented, with mention rate, SOV, average position and daily trends across multiple AI engines. Zumi
• geoshark.io — tracks daily buyer questions across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews, including SOV, mention rate, citation rate and historical trends. GeoShark
• helloranked.com — interesting if you want a public industry benchmark rather than just monitoring your own prompts. It publishes monthly AI visibility/SOV rankings by industry. helloranked

If your goal is specifically "How is my industry changing?"

I'd distinguish two use cases:

1. "How is my brand gaining/losing AI SOV?"
→ Seerly, Zumi, Rankseer, GeoShark or Ahrefs.

2. "What is the overall AI SOV landscape for my industry over time?"
→ Ahrefs and HelloRanked are especially interesting, because they can give you broader category/market benchmarks rather than just a handful of prompts you manually define. Ahrefs says its index is based on hundreds of millions of real/search-derived prompts and is updated monthly. Ahrefs

One important caveat: AI SOV isn't yet a standardized industry metric. Different platforms define it differently—some count mentions, some citations, some position, and some weight recommendations. For a serious competitive dashboard, I'd want to see the underlying prompts, engines, sampling methodology, and calculation rather than treating the headline SOV percentage as an absolute market-share number.

If you tell me your industry + whether you're B2B or B2C, I can narrow this to the 2–3 platforms that actually make sense for your use case and pricing level.

Yes. There’s now a fairly mature category for this, usually called AI search visibility, AI share of voice, share of model, or GEO/AEO tracking.

The platforms I’d look at are:

• otterly.ai — probably the easiest starting point. It tracks brand mentions, citations, competitors, and share of voice over time across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Gemini, Copilot, and Claude. You can break results down by prompts, engines, markets, and competitors. Otterly Otterly
• scope.online — particularly interesting if by "industry trends" you mean "what is happening to the whole category, not just my brand?" It benchmarks your AI share of voice against the competitive category and provides historical category trend data. Scope
• demandsphere.com — stronger if you want to connect AI visibility with conventional SEO/SERP data. It tracks SOV across multiple AI platforms and shows how it changes over time. DemandSphere
• rankseer.com — focused specifically on recurring AI SOV measurements and trend reporting across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini. Rankseer
• getvisoryn.com — another purpose-built AI SOV tracker with competitive leaderboards, historical trends, prompt-level gaps, and reporting. Visoryn
• Profound — more enterprise-oriented and deeper on prompts, citations, sources, and how models describe brands. It tends to make more sense when AI visibility is becoming a serious enterprise KPI rather than simply something you're experimenting with. Tomek Sikora

The important distinction

There are actually two different things you might mean by "AI share of voice":

1. My company's AI SOV over time

"We're mentioned in 18% of relevant AI answers this month, versus 11% in January."

Almost all of the tools above can do this.

2. AI SOV for my entire industry over time

"Across the insurance industry, Brand A went from 22% → 31%, Brand B fell from 18% → 12%, and new entrants are taking 9%."

That's more interesting—and harder. Scope looks particularly aligned with this use case, because it explicitly benchmarks the broader competitive category and tracks category-level movement. Scope

One caveat: AI SOV isn't a standardized metric yet. Different vendors define it differently—for example, some count brand mentions, others citations, some weight position in the answer, and some use different prompt/engine sampling methodologies. So I'd be careful comparing an "18% SOV" from one platform with an "18%" from another. verityscore.io

If you tell me your industry + roughly how many competitors you want to track, I can narrow this down to the 2–3 platforms that are actually best for your use case, including pricing and what their historical trend data looks like.

Yes. There’s now a fairly mature category of AI search / GEO visibility platforms that specifically track AI share of voice (SoV) over time—i.e., how often your brand is mentioned/recommended versus competitors when people ask AI about your category.

A few worth looking at:

• llmpulse.ai — particularly focused on SoV. Tracks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Mode and AI Overviews, with daily/weekly/monthly trends and competitor comparisons. LLM Pulse
• seerly.app — tracks visibility and competitive SoV across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and other AI engines, including category-level trends. Seerly
• onpagepilot.com — good if you want daily historical SoV by keyword, competitors, citations, and the specific pages being cited. OnPagePilot
• siftly.ai — explicitly provides daily/weekly/monthly AI SoV trend lines and platform-level breakdowns. Siftly
• citepower.com — combines SoV with citations, sentiment, competitor visibility, and the sources AI engines are using. CitePower
• livesov.com — more lightweight and explicitly built around daily AI share-of-voice monitoring across multiple engines. Livesov

The important distinction

If by "my industry's AI share of voice" you mean:

"Over the last 12 months, what percentage of AI answers about [industry/category] mention Brand A vs Brand B vs Brand C, and how has that changed?"

then yes, these tools can do something close to that.

But there's a catch: there isn't a universal industry-wide AI SoV number. The platforms calculate it from a defined set of prompts, competitors, AI engines, geographies, etc. So the quality of the trend depends heavily on the prompt set.

For example, a good measurement system might continuously run 200–1,000 prompts such as:

• "Best [category] software"
• "Alternatives to [competitor]"
• "Best [category] for enterprise"
• "[category] vendors for small businesses"
• "Which [category] tools should I consider?"
• "[category] comparison"

Then calculate something like:

AI Share of Voice = your weighted mentions ÷ all competitive mentions

and plot that monthly.

If you tell me your industry/category + your company (and 3–10 competitors), I can look across these platforms and tell you which one is best suited to measuring your industry's AI SoV over time, including pricing/free-trial differences.

AI Share of Voice = your weighted mentions ÷ all competitive mentions

and plot that monthly.

If you tell me your industry/category + your company (and 3–10 competitors), I can look across these platforms and tell you which one is best suited to measuring your industry's AI SoV over time, including pricing/free-trial differences.

Yes. There are now several platforms specifically built to track AI Share of Voice (AI SOV)—essentially, how often your brand is mentioned/recommended by AI engines relative to competitors, and how that changes over time.

The ones I'd look at

• semrush.com — probably the most natural choice if you already use Semrush. It calculates AI SOV based on mentions and position, and lets you compare against competitors. Semrush
• ahrefs.com — particularly interesting for industry-level benchmarking. It analyzes 461M+ modeled prompts across Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Perplexity, ChatGPT, Copilot, and AI Mode, with monthly updates. Ahrefs
• seerly.app — very focused on exactly what you're describing: competitor SOV, category-level breakdowns, engine-by-engine visibility, and SOV trends over weeks/months. Seerly
• zumihq.com — strong if you want a more analytics-oriented dashboard. It tracks mention rate, SOV, average position, competitors, and trends across multiple AI engines. Zumi
• siftly.ai — explicitly tracks AI SOV daily/weekly/monthly, including overall and per-platform trends. Siftly
• serprecon.com — useful if you want to combine traditional Google SOV + AI SOV in one view. SERPrecon

There's also a free/public option, helloranked.com, which publishes monthly AI visibility/SOV rankings by industry across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity. This could be useful if you're mainly asking "How is AI visibility changing across my whole category?" rather than only tracking your own brand. helloranked

One important distinction

There are really two different things you might mean:

1. "How is my company doing?"

My brand: 18% → 21% → 24% AI SOV
Competitor A: 31% → 29% → 27%
Competitor B: 12% → 14% → 16%

Platforms like Seerly, Zumi, Siftly, and Semrush are good for this.

2. "Is AI visibility becoming more important in my entire industry?"

AI SOV across the industry
Q1: 4% of answers
Q2: 8%
Q3: 14%
Q4: 22%

That's a more interesting market/category trend question, and fewer tools seem to provide it cleanly. Ahrefs and public benchmark datasets such as HelloRanked are closer to this.

If you tell me your industry + whether you're interested in your own brand vs. the whole industry, I can narrow this down to the 2–3 platforms that actually fit and tell you which one I'd choose.

Yes. There are now several platforms specifically built to track AI/LLM share of voice (SOV) over time—essentially, “How often does AI recommend/mention my brand vs. competitors, and is that changing?”

Best options

• tryprofound.com — probably the strongest fit if you want industry-level benchmarking. Its Profound Index covers 50+ industries and uses large-scale real-user AI conversations to rank brands. The paid platform lets you track Share of Voice over time by topic, prompt, platform, region, and competitor. Profound Profound
• peec.ai — particularly good for a marketing/SEO team wanting a straightforward dashboard. It tracks visibility, position, sentiment, and SOV across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, etc., with daily trends and competitor comparisons. Peec AI
• semrush.com — worth considering if you're already using Semrush for traditional SEO. Its Brand Performance Reports include SOV, mentions, and average position over time, including competitor comparisons across AI platforms. Semrush
• getvisoryn.com — a more focused AI-SOV product built around competitive share, leaderboards, trends, prompt groups, and executive reporting. Visoryn

The distinction I'd pay attention to

There are actually two different questions these tools can answer:

1. “How visible is my brand?”

E.g. What percentage of relevant ChatGPT answers mention us?

2. “What is my industry's AI share of voice?”

E.g. In the category “best payroll software,” ADP gets 28%, Gusto 21%, Rippling 17%, us 8%—and our share has risen from 3% six months ago.

If your goal is #2, I'd start with Profound. Its industry index is specifically designed to answer who's winning AI Search in a category, while its platform gives you the longitudinal/custom tracking. Profound Profound

If you tell me your industry + 3–5 competitors, I can also look at what these platforms currently show for your category and tell you which one is likely to give you the most useful SOV trend data.

Yes. This category is usually called AI Share of Voice (AI SOV), AI visibility, or GEO/AEO tracking. Several platforms now track how often your brand is mentioned/recommended versus competitors in AI answers and show the trend over time.

A few worth looking at:

• siftly.ai — probably the closest match to what you described. Tracks AI SOV across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews, with daily/weekly/monthly trend lines, competitor comparisons, and topic-level breakdowns. Siftly Siftly
• searchdock.io — particularly interesting if you want historical, per-engine trends rather than one blended score. Tracks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Google AI Overviews. SearchDock
• foglift.io — focuses heavily on competitive intelligence. It keeps the underlying prompts, AI answers, competitors, citations, and measurement windows behind the SOV number, which is useful for figuring out why your share changed. Foglift
• viaudit.com — monitors a broader set of engines, including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Google AI Overviews, Copilot, and Grok, and produces competitor SOV plus an overall visibility score. Viaudit
• citationbench.com — more API/agency-oriented, but useful if you want AI citation SOV alongside traditional SEO rankings and historical trajectories. CitationBench

The important distinction

If by "industry trends" you mean:

"Show me how AI visibility for the entire SaaS industry has changed over the last 12 months, and tell me which brands are gaining/losing share."

That's a little different. Most tools above primarily let you define a competitive set and prompt universe, then track that cohort over time. They don't necessarily provide an independent, standardized industry-wide benchmark.

For example, you might define:

Industry: CRM software
Prompts: "best CRM for startups," "HubSpot alternatives," "best CRM for enterprise," etc.
Competitors: Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoho, Pipedrive, Monday
Engines: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity
Metric: % of relevant AI answers mentioning each brand
Trend: weekly/monthly SOV over 12 months

That's arguably a much more useful metric than a generic "AI visibility score."

If you tell me your industry/category (e.g. cybersecurity, SaaS, insurance, recruiting, ecommerce), I can research which platform has the best actual industry benchmarking and historical AI-SOV data for that category, including pricing.

Yes. This is now a real category usually called AI search visibility, AI share of voice (SOV), or GEO tracking.

A few platforms specifically show competitive share of voice over time, rather than just giving you a one-off AI audit:

• semrush.com — Probably the strongest mainstream option. It tracks AI SOV against competitors and lets you see how the share changes over a selected time range, including breakdowns by AI platform. Semrush
• siftly.ai — More focused specifically on AI SOV. It offers daily/weekly/monthly trend lines and tracks ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. Siftly
• indexly.ai — Tracks mentions, citations, sentiment and SOV daily, including competitor comparisons and per-platform trends. Indexly
• llmrefs.com — Tracks a defined prompt set daily and charts your AI visibility/SOV against competitors over time. LLMrefs
• signal360.ai — Enterprise-oriented, with SOV trends across multiple AI providers, markets and languages. Signal 360

The important distinction

If what you mean is:

“I want to know whether my brand's share of AI recommendations in my entire category is going up or down month by month, and how I compare with competitors.”

Then yes, Semrush, Siftly, Indexly and LLMrefs are directly in that territory.

The underlying methodology is generally:

fixed set of industry/buyer prompts → run repeatedly across AI engines → record brands mentioned/cited → calculate SOV → plot it over time.

That's much more useful than simply asking ChatGPT, “How visible is my brand?” because you get a consistent longitudinal dataset. thestacc.com searchdock.io

If you tell me your industry + your company/brand + 3–5 competitors, I can also identify which platform is best for your specific use case and what I'd use as the prompt set/AI SOV methodology.

Yes. There are several platforms now that specifically track AI Share of Voice (AI SOV) — essentially, how often your brand appears in AI-generated answers compared with competitors over time. They work similarly to SEO rank trackers, but instead of Google positions they monitor prompts and AI responses across engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and AI Overviews. theStacc

Some options:

A typical workflow looks like:

1. Define your industry prompts

• “best CRM for startups”
• “top accounting software”
• “best [category] providers”
• Run those prompts regularly across AI engines.
• Measure:

• % of answers mentioning your brand
• position/order of mention
• competitor mentions
• citations/sources AI relies on
• sentiment
• change over weeks/months

For an enterprise marketing team, I’d look first at Semrush, Indexly, or Visoryn. For a smaller team trying to understand whether AI recommends them at all, Siftly, Orbilo, or Spottlo may be more lightweight. Siftly Orbilo Spottlo

One caveat: AI SOV is still a developing metric. The most useful systems are the ones that let you define your own industry-specific prompt set rather than giving you a generic “AI visibility score.” Shadow

If you tell me your industry (e.g., SaaS, healthcare, finance, ecommerce, agency, etc.) and whether you need enterprise reporting or a DIY dashboard, I can narrow this down.

Yes. This category is now usually called AI visibility / AI Share of Voice (AI SOV) or GEO/AEO tracking. There are platforms that specifically track how often brands are mentioned/recommended by ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, etc., and show the trend over time.

A few worth looking at:

• HubSpot AI Search Sensor — probably closest to what you mean if you want industry-level trends. It has a free public dashboard showing visibility/citation trends by industry over time, rather than just your own brand. It also has a paid brand-level AEO product.
• ModelMention — tracks your brand and competitors across ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity, including share of voice, visibility trends, sentiment and citations.
• Seerly — particularly good if you want competitor SOV + trends over weeks/months + individual prompt-level evidence.
• Zumi — more CMO/enterprise-oriented, with daily mention rate, SOV, average position and engine-level trends.
• Indexly — tracks SOV, mentions, citations, sentiment and AI referral traffic across several engines.
• RivalSee — emphasizes industry/market segmentation and competitor trend analysis.

There are also public benchmarks emerging. For example, HelloRanked publishes an AI Visibility Index with rankings by industry and share of voice, measured monthly across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity.

The important distinction

If what you're asking is:

"Can I see whether AI visibility for my entire industry is increasing/decreasing, and which companies are gaining SOV?"

I'd look first at HubSpot AI Search Sensor + HelloRanked.

If you mean:

"I want to enter my company/category and see my SOV vs competitors plotted monthly over the last 6–12 months."

I'd look at ModelMention, Seerly, Zumi, or Indexly.

And if you're evaluating this for a specific industry, I can narrow this down to the 2–3 platforms that actually have good coverage for your industry and compare pricing, engines tracked, historical data, competitor benchmarking, and whether they expose raw prompts/responses.

Yes. This category is usually called AI visibility, AI search visibility, or AI share of voice (SoV).

If your goal is specifically “How much of my industry’s AI-generated conversation do I own, and is that changing over time?”, there are several platforms now doing this:

• ahrefs.com — probably the strongest option if you want industry-level benchmarking plus historical trends. Ahrefs says its index uses 471M+ prompts across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, and provides historical trends through Brand Radar. Ahrefs
• ai-visibility-index.semrush.com — particularly interesting for industry/sector benchmarks. Its 2026 study analyzed 126M real prompts across 22 industries and reports visibility trends by sector and platform. AI Visibility Index
• seerly.app — more directly focused on share of voice over time. It tracks competitors across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, etc., with category-level SoV and trend lines. Seerly
• peec.ai — good if you want a marketing-team dashboard around visibility, SoV, position, sentiment, prompts, and competitive tracking. Peec AI
• indexly.ai — emphasizes daily SoV trends across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Grok and Google AI Overviews, including competitor comparisons. Indexly
• rankr.so — tracks daily visibility, position, sentiment and share of voice across the major AI models. Rankr

The distinction I'd pay attention to

There are actually two different things vendors call “AI share of voice”:

1. Your brand's SoV within a tracked industry/topic

“For prompts about payroll software, what % of brand mentions are ADP vs. Paychex vs. Gusto vs. Rippling?”

That's the most useful metric for competitive marketing. Peec, Seerly, Indexly, etc. are designed around this.

2. Your industry's overall AI visibility trend

“Across the payroll-software category, how has AI visibility changed from January → August 2026, and which companies are gaining share?”

That's closer to what you're asking, and Ahrefs and Semrush are particularly interesting because they have enormous prompt datasets and industry-level benchmarking. Semrush explicitly reports trends across 22 industries. AI Visibility Index

If you tell me your industry/category (e.g. cybersecurity, SaaS, healthcare, insurance, legal, consumer products), I can look at the available platforms and tell you which one actually gives you the industry-over-time view you're after, rather than just a generic brand tracker.

Yes. There are several platforms emerging specifically for AI Share of Voice (AI SOV) — measuring how often your brand appears in AI-generated answers compared with competitors, and how that changes over time. This is often grouped under AI visibility, AEO (Answer Engine Optimization), or GEO (Generative Engine Optimization).

Some options:

A typical dashboard looks like:

• Your AI share of voice: “Your brand appears in 18% of relevant AI answers”
• Competitor comparison: “Competitor A: 31%, Competitor B: 22%”
• Trend line: “Your share increased from 12% → 18% over 90 days”
• Prompt clusters: “Best CRM for startups,” “CRM alternatives,” “CRM comparison”
• Model breakdown: ChatGPT vs Gemini vs Perplexity vs AI Overviews
• Citation analysis: which websites and content sources are influencing AI answers Scrunch Semrush

If you’re evaluating these for a specific industry, I’d look for:

1. Ability to define your own prompt set (not just generic keywords)
2. Competitor tracking
3. Historical data retention (3–12+ months)
4. Breakdown by AI engine
5. Exportable reports for executives

If you tell me your industry (e.g., SaaS, healthcare, finance, ecommerce, agencies, etc.) and whether you care more about brand visibility or lead generation, I can narrow this down.

Yes. There’s now a fairly mature category of AI visibility / AI share-of-voice platforms that specifically tracks how often brands appear in answers from ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Claude, etc., and plots the results over time.

A few worth looking at:

• otterly.ai — Probably the easiest place to start. It tracks share of voice, brand coverage, mentions, sentiment, citations, competitors, and trends over time across seven AI engines. You can define prompts around your industry and see how your brand compares. Otterly Otterly
• siftly.ai — Particularly focused on the metric you're describing: AI conversation share, with daily/weekly/monthly SOV trends and competitor/topic-level drilldowns. Siftly
• seerly.app — Tracks live prompts across AI engines and gives visibility/SOV trends, including competitor share within a category. Seerly
• Profound — More enterprise-oriented, with deeper prompt, citation, source and competitive analysis. It's one of the major platforms in this category alongside Otterly and Peec. Tomek Sikora
• Peec AI — Another strong option if you want competitive analytics around AI search visibility rather than simply monitoring brand mentions. Arbling
• similarweb.com — Interesting if you want to connect AI share-of-voice with broader traffic, market and competitive intelligence, rather than keeping AI visibility in its own silo. Prism News

What I'd look for

If by "AI share of voice trends for my industry" you mean something like:

"Among people asking AI about [my category], what % of AI answers mention Brand A vs. Brand B vs. Brand C, and how has that changed over the last 6–12 months?"

then yes, Otterly/Siftly/Profound/Peec are essentially built for this.

The important distinction is industry-level SOV vs. your own tracked prompts. Most platforms don't have a magical universal "share of voice for the entire industry." Instead, you define a representative prompt universe—e.g. "best X for Y," "X alternatives," "X companies," "how to solve X"—and the platform repeatedly runs those prompts and calculates competitive share.

That's actually preferable because you can make the metric reproducible.

If you tell me your industry/category, I can identify the best platform for it and show you exactly what the AI SOV dashboard could look like, including the prompts/competitors I'd track.

Yes. There’s now a fairly mature category of tools for AI Share of Voice (AI SOV)—measuring how often your brand is mentioned/recommended by AI engines relative to competitors, and showing that movement over time.

A few worth looking at:

• scope.online — Probably closest to what you’re describing. It benchmarks your AI SOV against the whole competitive category, rather than just a hand-picked competitor list, and provides historical category trends. It tracks ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity. Scope Scope
• siftly.ai — Strong if you specifically want SOV trend lines. It reports overall and per-platform SOV, with daily/weekly/monthly trends and topic-level competitive breakdowns. Siftly
• seerly.app — Tracks visibility and SOV against competitors across AI engines, including category-level and historical trend views. Seerly
• sona.com — More oriented toward an enterprise AI-visibility workflow: SOV, competitor tracking, prompts, sentiment, and—importantly—which sources are driving the AI answers. Sona
• getvisoryn.com — Specifically emphasizes SOV leaderboards, trends, prompt groups, engines, and recurring reporting. Visoryn

The important distinction

If by "industry trends" you mean:

"Show me how AI visibility for my entire industry/category is changing over the last 6–12 months, and how my company compares."

I'd look hardest at Scope. Its positioning explicitly includes 12 months of category benchmark history, so you can see whether AI recommendation patterns are changing across the category—not merely whether your own score moved. Scope

If instead you mean:

"Give me a dashboard where I can track my company vs. 5–20 competitors every week."

I'd compare Siftly, Seerly, and Scope.

One caveat: AI SOV isn't yet as standardized as traditional search share of voice. Different platforms can define the denominator differently—some count mentions, some recommendations, some weighted positions, and some citations. So I would not compare an SOV percentage from one vendor directly with another vendor's number without checking methodology.

If you tell me your industry + whether you're B2B or B2C, I can narrow this to the 2–3 platforms that actually have useful benchmarks for your industry and tell you what each one measures.

Yes. This category is usually called AI search visibility, GEO (generative engine optimization), or AI Share of Voice (SOV).

A few platforms now specifically track it over time:

• ahrefs.com — probably the closest match to what you're describing. It tracks AI Share of Voice against competitors, mentions, citations, and impressions across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Copilot, etc. It also has historical data and can compare brands over time. Ahrefs Help Center Ahrefs for Developers
• peec.ai — more focused specifically on AI visibility. It tracks SOV, visibility, average position, sentiment, competitors, and prompt-level trends daily across major AI engines. Peec AI
• tryprofound.com — particularly interesting for larger brands/agencies. It tracks Share of Voice, positioning, citations and visibility across answer engines, and its benchmark dataset covers 50+ industries and 1.9B+ real user conversations. Profound Profound Knowledge Base

What I'd look for

If your goal is something like:

"In the [my industry] category, how has the percentage of AI answers mentioning us vs. competitors changed over the last 6–12 months?"

I'd prioritize Ahrefs Brand Radar or Profound. Peec is attractive if you want a more focused AI-monitoring/GEO workflow.

One important caveat: AI SOV isn't yet a standardized industry metric. Different platforms define it differently. For example, Ahrefs calculates AI SOV based on a brand's share of AI-answer impressions relative to tracked competitors, while Peec defines it around the percentage of AI responses mentioning the brand. Ahrefs Help Center Peec AI

If you tell me your industry + 3–5 competitors, I can look at the current landscape and tell you which platform is best for tracking your industry's AI SOV over time, including pricing and what data each one actually gives you.

Yes. There’s now a fairly mature category of tools for this, usually called AI visibility / GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) platforms. They track how often your brand appears in AI answers relative to competitors and, importantly, show the change over time.

The strongest options I’d look at

• semrush.com — Probably the most established choice if you already use Semrush. Its AI share of voice can be tracked against competitors over a selected time period, with platform-level breakdowns. Semrush
• siftly.ai — Particularly focused on the exact metric you're describing: overall, platform-specific, topic-specific, and historical SOV, with daily/weekly/monthly trends. Siftly
• presenc.ai — Strong emphasis on historical analysis, including weekly/monthly/quarterly changes across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Gemini. Presenc AI
• rankscope.ai — Tracks SOV, mention rate, ranking position, sentiment and citation sources across major AI engines. RankScope
• seerly.app — Good if you want to see an actual competitive SOV trend, broken down by AI engine and prompt. Seerly
• signal360.ai — More enterprise-oriented, with multi-LLM analysis and SOV tracking across days, weeks and months. Signal 360

There's also a useful distinction between your own brand tracking and industry/category benchmarking. For example, helloranked.com publishes a broader AI-visibility leaderboard by industry, including monthly share-of-voice measurements across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity. helloranked

What I'd want the platform to show

If your goal is "How is AI's perception of my industry changing?", rather than just "How visible is my company?", I'd prioritize a platform that lets you:

1. Define a set of industry/buyer prompts — e.g. "best accounting software for startups," "top cybersecurity vendors," etc.
2. Track every major AI engine separately.
3. See brand SOV vs. competitors over time.
4. Segment SOV by topic / intent / use case, not just one aggregate number.
5. See the actual AI responses and citations behind changes.
6. Ideally compare your industry against broader AI-search trends.

That's important because an overall "AI visibility score" can hide what's actually happening. A brand might be gaining visibility overall while losing badly on the high-intent prompts that matter commercially.

If you tell me your industry (and ideally your company/competitors), I can narrow this down to the 2–3 platforms that actually have the best data for your particular market, including which ones show historical industry benchmarks rather than just your own tracking.

Yes. The category is usually called AI search visibility, AI Share of Voice (SOV), or GEO/AEO tracking.

If what you mean is “For my industry, how much of the AI-generated conversation does each brand own, and how is that changing week/month over month?”, there are now several platforms that do exactly that:

• semrush.com — probably the most established option if you already use Semrush. It tracks AI SOV across ChatGPT, Google AI, Perplexity, Gemini, etc., and can show competitor SOV trends over time. Semrush
• zumihq.com — particularly focused on AI visibility. It tracks up to nine AI engines and breaks visibility into mention rate, SOV, position, and citations, with daily monitoring. Zumi Zumi
• brandofy.ai — tracks brands and competitors weekly across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, including SOV trends. Brandofy
• siftly.ai — explicitly built around AI conversation share, with daily/weekly/monthly SOV trends and topic-level competitive analysis. Siftly
• seerly.app — lets you see your share against competitors within a category/topic set, including trends and per-engine differences. Seerly
• chatbenchmark.com — tracks brand mentions, SOV, sentiment and citations, with filters for time period, AI platform and country. ChatBenchmark

The important distinction

There are really two different products hiding under “AI share of voice”:

1. Your company's AI SOV

“When people ask AI about our category, how often does it mention us vs. competitors?”

That's what the platforms above are primarily measuring.

2. Industry-wide AI SOV trends

“Across the entire category, which brands are gaining/losing AI mindshare over the last 12 months?”

That's more interesting if you're doing market intelligence, because you want a persistent dataset of category prompts rather than simply monitoring your own brand.

The methodology matters enormously. For example, SearchDock calculates SOV from stored multi-pass answers against a defined competitor set, while other platforms weight things like position in the answer, mentions, citations, and prompt/search volume differently. SearchDock Semrush

Also, this data is genuinely volatile: recent analysis of Promptwatch data, for example, found Reddit's share of ChatGPT citations falling substantially over just a few weeks. Axios

If you tell me your industry/category, I can look at the current platforms and tell you which one gives the best industry-level historical SOV data, including what engines it covers, how far back the history goes, pricing, and whether you can see the whole category rather than just your own brand.

Yes. There’s now a fairly mature category of AI visibility / AI share-of-voice (SoV) platforms that can show how often your brand appears versus competitors in ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, etc., and trend that over weeks/months.

A few worth looking at:

• Semrush AI Visibility / Enterprise AIO — Probably the closest match if you already use Semrush. Its AI Share of Voice reports compare your brand with competitors and show how SoV changes over time. www.semrush.com
• OtterlyAI — Focused specifically on AI search monitoring. Tracks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Gemini and Copilot, including competitive share and historical movement. otterly.ai
• Seerly — Particularly good if you want category-level SoV: e.g. “our brand has 18% of AI visibility in running footwear vs. Nike at 40%.” It explicitly provides SoV trends and competitor breakdowns. www.semrush.comseerly.appcrowdreply.iowww.hubspot.com
• Profound — More enterprise-oriented, with deeper AI-search analytics and competitive monitoring.
• CrowdReply AI Share of Voice — More narrowly focused on exactly this metric: SoV by brand, LLM, prompt category and intent, with changes traced to specific prompts/models. crowdreply.io
• HubSpot AI Search Sensor — Interesting if what you actually want is “what is happening to AI visibility across my whole industry?” rather than tracking just your company. It has free industry benchmarks showing visibility/citation trends across multiple weeks. www.hubspot.com

The distinction I'd pay attention to

There are actually two different products hiding under “AI share of voice”:

One important caveat: AI SoV isn't standardized yet. Different platforms calculate it differently—some count mentions, others citations, position in the answer, prompt volume, etc. verityscore.io So I'd compare methodologies before treating a “17% SoV” number as equivalent across vendors.

If you tell me your industry + whether you're looking for your company's SoV or an industry-wide benchmark, I can narrow this down to the 2–3 platforms that actually fit, including pricing and what their historical trend data looks like.

Yes. A number of newer AI visibility / AI share of voice (AI SOV) platforms are built specifically to show how often brands appear in AI-generated answers over time, usually benchmarked against competitors and segmented by prompts, models, and topics. HubSpot

Some options:

A few things to check before choosing:

• Prompt coverage: Does it track the questions your buyers actually ask (e.g., “best CRM for startups,” “alternatives to X,” “top vendors for Y”)?
• Model coverage: ChatGPT alone is usually not enough; look for Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI features if those matter for your audience. Siftly Allmond
• Historical trends: Make sure it stores snapshots over weeks/months rather than only giving a one-time audit. Sill
• Competitive denominator: A useful AI SOV metric should show your share relative to named competitors, not just your own mention count. HubSpot

If you tell me your industry (e.g., SaaS, healthcare, finance, ecommerce, agencies) and whether you care more about ChatGPT visibility, AI search traffic, or competitive benchmarking, I can narrow this to the best-fit tools.

Yes. There’s now a fairly mature category of AI visibility / GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) platforms that specifically track AI share of voice (SOV) against competitors over time.

A few worth looking at:

The important distinction is that these aren't simply measuring "how often ChatGPT mentions my company." The better ones build a repeatable set of category/buyer prompts and calculate something closer to:

Your AI SOV = your share of brand mentions/recommendations across the relevant AI answers, relative to competitors

Then you can see whether you're going from, say, 8% → 12% → 17% while competitors move in the opposite direction. Seerly, Siftly and Signal360 explicitly support this kind of historical SOV tracking. seerly.app

One caveat

There isn't yet a universally accepted definition of "AI share of voice." Some platforms count any mention; others weight recommendations, position in the answer, sentiment, or whether you're the primary recommendation. Zumi, for example, separates mention rate, SOV, and average position, while DecaGEO weights recommendations by where they appear in the answer. www.zumihq.com

So if what you're looking for is specifically:

"Show me the AI SOV of my entire industry/category over the last 6–12 months, not just my own brand's visibility"

I'd prioritize platforms that let you define a category-level prompt set + competitor universe + historical trend, rather than just a brand visibility score.

If you tell me your industry/category, I can identify the 3–5 platforms that are most likely to have meaningful benchmark data for it and show you what their dashboards actually measure.

Yes. There’s now a fairly mature category of AI visibility / GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) platforms that specifically track AI share of voice over time—essentially, “when people ask AI about my category, how often does it mention me vs. competitors?”

A few worth looking at:

• answermonk.ai — explicitly built around AI SOV. Tracks ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, with monthly trend tracking and competitor comparisons. AnswerMonk
• siftly.ai — tracks SOV across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews, with daily/weekly/monthly trends. Siftly
• llmpulse.ai — particularly interesting if you want competitive intelligence: SOV by model, country, language, prompt collection, and time period. LLM Pulse
• seerly.app — has category-level SOV, competitor trends, per-engine breakdowns, and the ability to drill into the actual AI responses. Seerly
• livesov.com — tracks daily share across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and Grok, including the underlying prompts and model outputs. Livesov
• optimizegeo.ai — broader GEO platform covering AI visibility, citations, competitors, and multiple AI engines. OptimizeGEO

The important distinction

If by “industry trends” you mean:

“Show me how AI share of voice for the entire industry is changing over time, regardless of whether I own a particular brand”

that's a little different.

Most platforms currently work by creating a fixed set of industry/buyer prompts, then repeatedly querying AI engines and calculating each brand's share. They don't necessarily provide a pre-built “AI SOV index for the entire SaaS/insurance/healthcare/etc. industry.” GetIntel

And there's an important measurement caveat: AI SOV doesn't yet have a universal definition. Different vendors use different denominators, weighting, prompt sets, sampling frequencies, and definitions of “mention” vs. “citation.” One recent analysis found that the same underlying observations could produce dramatically different SOV percentages depending on the calculation method. GetIntel

So if you're evaluating these for serious competitive research, I'd prioritize a platform that lets you see:

1. SOV by competitor
2. SOV over time
3. SOV by AI engine
4. SOV by topic / buyer intent
5. The exact prompts and AI responses behind the metric
6. Which sources/citations caused the change

That last part is especially important—you want to know why your competitor went from 12% → 24%, not just that it happened.

If you tell me your industry/category (e.g. cybersecurity, dental, B2B SaaS, insurance, ecommerce), I can identify which platform currently has the best industry-level competitive data for it and whether there are existing benchmarks you can access.

Yes. AI “share of voice” (SoV) tracking is now a real category, and several platforms specifically show how your brand compares with competitors in AI-generated answers over time.

The strongest options

If what you mean is…

“I want to know whether AI is increasingly recommending my company vs. competitors in my entire category, month by month.”

I'd look particularly closely at Semrush, Siftly, or visibility.so.

Semrush is interesting because its AI Share of Voice report explicitly plots your brand and competitors over a selected time range, rather than just giving you a current visibility score. www.semrush.comverityscore.io

Siftly similarly offers overall and per-platform SoV plus daily, weekly, and monthly trend lines. siftly.ai

visibility.so lets you track keywords in your category and see share of voice, competitor rankings, and historical week-over-week changes across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity. www.semrush.comvisibility.soverityscore.io

There's also a different kind of product

If you're asking about “What percentage of AI recommendations does each company in my industry receive?” rather than tracking your own brand, HelloRanked's AI Visibility Index is particularly interesting. It publishes industry leaderboards showing brands' AI share of voice across categories such as credit cards, smartphones, laptops, etc. helloranked.com

That's closer to an industry-wide Nielsen-style AI SOV dataset.

One caveat: these numbers aren't equivalent across vendors. Each platform defines SoV somewhat differently—some count mentions, others weight position/prominence, and the underlying AI responses are nondeterministic. So I'd choose a vendor based on consistent methodology and repeated measurements, not simply the highest/lowest SOV number. www.semrush.comverityscore.io

If you tell me your industry (e.g. SaaS, insurance, restaurants, healthcare, legal, ecommerce), I can find the platform that has the best actual industry-level benchmark data, rather than just brand tracking.

Yes. This is now a fairly well-developed category, usually called AI Share of Voice (AI SOV), AI visibility, or Share of Model.

If what you mean is “How much of the AI-generated conversation in my category goes to my company vs. competitors, and how is that changing over time?”, these are the strongest options I found:

The interesting distinction

If you want “How is AI visibility changing across my industry?”, I'd start with HubSpot's AI Search Sensor. It's a free public dashboard that reports weekly visibility and citation trends by industry across ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity. It is specifically designed to show the broader market rather than just your own brand. www.hubspot.com

If you want “What percentage of the AI conversation belongs to my company, and how does that compare with competitors?”, Semrush is probably the most mature mainstream option. Its AI Share of Voice reporting can show your brand and competitors' SOV over a selected time period, including platform-level comparisons. www.semrush.com

For a purpose-built AI SOV dashboard, Siftly and Seerly are particularly close to what you're describing. Siftly explicitly tracks overall, platform, topic and time-based SOV, while Seerly provides category-level SOV and trend lines. siftly.ai

One caveat

“AI share of voice” isn't yet a standardized metric. Different products calculate it differently—for example, based on brand mentions, presence in answers, position, citations, or weighted combinations. www.semrush.com

So if you're trying to build a credible industry benchmark, I'd want the platform to let you control:

• the exact prompts/questions being monitored
• competitor set
• geography
• AI engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, etc.)
• frequency of measurement
• mention vs. citation vs. recommendation
• historical trend data

If you tell me your industry (e.g. SaaS, insurance, healthcare, ecommerce, agencies, finance), I can narrow this down to the 2–3 platforms that actually have useful data for that industry and tell you what their dashboards/benchmarks look like.

Yes. There are now several platforms specifically built to track AI Share of Voice (AI SoV)—essentially, how often your brand gets mentioned/recommended by AI engines compared with competitors, and how that changes over time.

The strongest options

My first choice would be Ahrefs Brand Radar if you're asking, "What is happening to AI visibility across my industry?" It benchmarks your brand against competitors across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, and other surfaces. It also weights visibility by search demand, rather than treating every prompt equally. help.ahrefs.comahrefs.com

Ahrefs Brand Radar

For example, you can get something conceptually like:

AI Share of Voice — [Your Industry]

Your company: 18% → 23% → 27% ↑
Competitor A: 31% → 29% → 26% ↓
Competitor B: 17% → 19% → 22% ↑
Others: 34% → 29% → 25%

And then slice that by topic, competitor, AI platform, prompt, and time period. Ahrefs explicitly supports tracking AI SoV over time and says its prompts are derived from real search-demand data. ahrefs.com

Scrunch is particularly interesting

If what you mean by "my industry" is "show me how AI talks about my category, not just my brand," I'd seriously look at Scrunch. It can break SOV down by topic, persona, funnel stage, platform, and individual prompts, and trend those measurements over time. scrunch.com

Scrunch

Semrush is another good choice

Semrush's AI visibility product has an explicit Share of Voice report and lets you compare your brand and competitors across AI platforms and over a selected time range. www.semrush.com

Semrush

One important caveat: AI SoV isn't yet equivalent to traditional search share of voice. Different platforms can produce different answers, and the tools generally measure modeled visibility from sets of prompts rather than actual customer exposure. Ahrefs, for example, explicitly describes its SOV/impression numbers as potential visibility rather than actual audience reach. help.ahrefs.comahrefs.com

If you tell me your industry/category, I can also look at the current platforms and tell you which one can actually give you an industry-wide AI SoV trend (e.g. "SaaS: 2024–2026") rather than just tracking your own prompts.

Yes. If by “AI share of voice” you mean “what percentage of AI-generated answers/recommendations in my category mention my brand vs. competitors, and how is that changing over time?”, there are now several platforms built specifically for this.

Best options

Otterly, for example, explicitly reports Share of Voice as your percentage of brand mentions relative to competitors, and lets you view the change over time, by engine and by prompt set. otterly.aicitegap.com Seerly similarly has category-level SOV and historical trend views. seerly.app

The important distinction

There are actually two different things you might mean by “industry AI share of voice”:

1. My company's AI SOV vs. my competitors

“In AI answers about running shoes, Nike gets 40%, Adidas 20%, ASICS 13%, etc.”

These platforms are very good at this. They continuously run a defined set of prompts and calculate the competitive share. seerly.app

2. How is AI SOV changing across my entire industry?

“Over the past 12 months, how much more/less are brands in the insurance industry being mentioned by AI, and which brands are gaining?”

That's a harder dataset. Most platforms primarily give you your tracked competitive set, rather than a neutral, industry-wide benchmark. There are emerging industry benchmarks, though—for example, research has started publishing AI visibility data segmented by industries such as SaaS, healthcare, fintech and ecommerce. citegap.com

If you're evaluating this for a business

I'd probably start with Otterly if your primary question is:

“Show me our AI share of voice against competitors, by category, and how it's trending month over month.”

It has exactly that workflow and appears considerably easier to get started with than the enterprise-oriented platforms. otterly.ai

If you tell me your industry + 3–10 competitors, I can also look at what's available specifically for your category and tell you which platform has the best industry-level benchmark data, rather than just brand-level tracking.

Yes. There’s now a fairly mature category for this, usually called AI search visibility, AI share of voice (SOV), or GEO/AEO monitoring.

If your goal is specifically “How much of my industry’s AI-generated conversation do I own, and is that changing over time?”, I’d look at these:

Semrush is particularly close to what you're describing: its Enterprise AIO product has an AI Share of Voice metric and a chart showing how your SOV and competitors' SOV change over a selected period. www.semrush.com

OtterlyAI is another strong fit. It explicitly reports “Share of AI Voice,” competitor visibility, and changes across time, with filtering by engine, country, prompt type, and date range. otterly.ai

Siftly is worth looking at if SOV itself is the KPI you care about. It tracks overall and per-platform SOV and provides daily/weekly/monthly trend lines. siftly.ai

One important distinction

There are really two different things you might mean by “industry trend”:

1. My company's AI SOV over time

“We were 8% in January, 12% in March, 18% today.”

Most of the platforms above do this well.

2. The entire industry's AI SOV trend over time

“In SaaS, Brand A went from 25% → 31%, Brand B from 18% → 12%, and the category is increasingly dominated by 5 brands.”

This is harder. Most platforms let you define a prompt set/category and track the competitive landscape, but they aren't necessarily giving you a neutral, industry-wide benchmark database. For example, Semrush calculates SOV based on mentions/position within the tracked prompt universe. www.semrush.com

There are also emerging industry benchmark datasets. Foglift, for example, has published cross-industry AI-search visibility benchmarks, while other vendors are building category-level benchmarks. foglift.io

If you tell me your industry (e.g. SaaS, insurance, legal, healthcare, ecommerce, etc.), I can find the platforms that have actual benchmarks for that industry—not just tools that track your own brand—and tell you which one is closest to an “AI share of voice Nielsen” for your market.

Yes. There are now several platforms specifically built to track AI share of voice (SOV)—i.e., how often your brand appears/recommended versus competitors in AI answers, and how that changes over time.

A few worth looking at:

• Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit — Probably the most established option if you already use Semrush. It tracks AI SOV against competitors and lets you see the trend over a selected period, across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI surfaces. www.semrush.com
• Siftly — More narrowly focused on AI visibility. It tracks SOV across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews with daily/weekly/monthly trends. siftly.ai
• Seerly — Tracks live prompts across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and other engines, including category-level competitive SOV and historical trends. seerly.app
• SERPrecon — Interesting if you want traditional SEO + AI SOV in one view, with historical SOV by competitor/domain/keyword. www.serprecon.compopsight.ai
• Orbilo — Tracks AI visibility and competitive SOV across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Grok, including trends over time. orbilo.co

The important distinction

If by "my industry" you mean:

"Show me the AI share of voice for the entire category—e.g. which brands dominate AI recommendations in accounting software—and let me watch that market change month by month."

then Semrush, Siftly, Seerly, and Orbilo are particularly close to what you're describing.

If instead you mean:

"Give me an industry-wide benchmark even if I don't specify my competitors, and tell me what % of AI answers each major brand owns."

that's a slightly different product. Some platforms build the benchmark from a defined prompt/category set, but there isn't yet a universally accepted "Nielsen ratings for AI" dataset. The methodology matters because AI engines can give materially different visibility results for the same brands. popsight.ai

If you tell me your industry/category, I can identify which platform has the best coverage for it and what you'd actually be able to see over time.

Yes. There are now several platforms specifically built to track AI share of voice (SoV)—i.e., how often your brand appears in AI-generated answers relative to competitors—and, importantly, show the trend over time.

Best options

Semrush is probably the closest match to what you're describing. Its AI Visibility Toolkit explicitly calculates AI SoV relative to competitors and lets you see how that share changes over a selected period. www.semrush.com

For example, you can get something conceptually like:

AI Share of Voice — Project Management Software

Your brand: 14% → 19% ↑
Competitor A: 22% → 18% ↓
Competitor B: 11% → 15% ↑
Competitor C: 9% → 8%

ChatGPT: 21%
Perplexity: 16%
Gemini: 12%
Google AI: 18%

And then drill into which prompts/topics are responsible for the movement.

Ahrefs is particularly interesting if by "industry trends" you mean something broader than my brand vs. my competitors. Brand Radar combines historical AI visibility with competitor comparison and topic/prompt analysis. ahrefs.com

One important distinction

There are really two different things you might mean by "AI share of voice":

1. My brand's AI SoV over time

"Are we gaining or losing visibility against competitors?"
→ Semrush, Ahrefs, Otterly, LLMrefs, etc.

2. The entire industry's AI SoV trend over time

"How is AI visibility distributed across my category, even beyond the brands we're already tracking?"
→ This is harder. Some platforms give you category/market benchmarks, but there isn't yet a universally accepted equivalent of Nielsen/Comscore for AI answers.

Semrush is getting particularly close to the second use case: its 2026 AI Visibility Index analyzed 126 million U.S. AI search prompts and provides industry-level visibility analysis. www.semrush.com

If you tell me your industry/category (e.g. cybersecurity, SaaS, insurance, healthcare, ecommerce), I can identify which platform has the strongest actual industry-level data for it, rather than just generic brand tracking.

Yes. There’s now a small but growing category of AI search / AI visibility platforms that track “share of voice” across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, etc., and show how it changes over time.

The ones I’d look at

Scrunch explicitly lets you see competitive presence by topic and track the trend over a selected period, including the last 12 weeks. It can segment by AI platform, topic, persona, funnel stage, country, and branded/non-branded prompts. scrunch.com

Profound is probably the closest match if by “industry trends” you mean “How is AI visibility changing across my entire category, not just my own tracked prompts?” Its new Profound Index measures category-level Share of Voice, Visibility Score, Citation Share, co-citations and competitor mentions, and breaks the data down by industry, topic cluster and LLM. www.tryprofound.com

Peec is a simpler option: it explicitly tracks share of voice against competitors plus visibility, ranking position and sentiment over time. peec.ai

One important caveat

These aren't equivalent to Google Search Console's impression/share-of-search data. The AI platforms generally don't expose actual aggregate user-query/impression data for your brand, so these products measure visibility by repeatedly running a defined set of prompts and analyzing the resulting AI answers. scrunch.com

That means I'd distinguish between:

“My brand's AI SOV”

Of the prompts I'm tracking, how often does my brand appear versus competitors?

and

“AI SOV for my industry”

Across the universe of questions consumers ask about my category, what percentage of AI visibility does each brand own, and is that percentage changing?

The second is much more interesting for market intelligence, and Profound's Index is particularly designed around it. www.tryprofound.com

If you tell me your industry/category, I can also look up which platform currently has the best coverage/data for that specific industry and show you what the actual trend dashboard looks like.

Yes. A new category of tools has emerged for this: AI visibility / AI search optimization platforms. They track how often your brand appears in answers from ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, etc., and some provide AI Share of Voice (SOV) trends over time. www.shadow.incwww.hubspot.com

Some platforms to look at:

A typical dashboard looks something like:

• AI Share of Voice: “Our brand appears in 18% of category answers; competitor A appears in 31%”
• Trend line: weekly/monthly movement
• Platform breakdown: ChatGPT vs Claude vs Gemini vs Perplexity
• Prompt-level visibility: “best CRM for startups,” “top accounting software,” etc.
• Citation analysis: which websites/sources AI systems rely on when mentioning competitors scrunch.com

A few caveats:

• The market is still immature; there is no universal “Google Analytics for AI answers.” Different vendors use different prompt sets and scoring methods, so SOV numbers are not always directly comparable. searchengineland.com
• The most meaningful setup is usually a fixed set of industry prompts + competitor list + monthly tracking, rather than trying to measure every possible AI query. www.frictionai.co

If you tell me your industry (e.g., SaaS, insurance, healthcare, ecommerce, finance) and whether you care more about ChatGPT visibility, AI search rankings, or competitor benchmarking, I can narrow this down to the best-fit platforms.

Yes. What you’re looking for is usually called AI Share of Voice (AI SOV), AI visibility, or AEO/GEO tracking.

A few platforms now specifically track it over time:

If you mean "show me the whole industry's trend"

That's the interesting distinction.

Most tools are better at:

My brand vs. competitors → AI SOV over time

rather than:

My entire industry → AI SOV/visibility trends over time

Semrush is probably the closest mainstream option because it has both competitive AI visibility tracking and large-scale industry-level research. Its 2026 AI Visibility Index analyzed 126 million AI search prompts and provides visibility benchmarks across brands and categories. www.semrush.com

For example, you could want a dashboard like:

AI Share of Voice — SaaS / CRM

                 Jan   Feb   Mar   Apr   May   Jun   Jul
Salesforce        31%   29%   28%   27%   25%   24%   22%
HubSpot           24%   25%   26%   27%   29%   30%   31%
Microsoft         18%   18%   17%   18%   18%   19%   20%
Other             27%   28%   29%   28%   28%   27%   27%

And then break it down by prompt/topic, AI platform, competitor, citation share, and sentiment/position.

One caveat: AI SOV is still a relatively young metric. Different platforms define and sample it differently, and AI responses can vary from run to run, so I would not compare SOV percentages from two different vendors as if they were the same measurement. arxiv.org

If you tell me your industry (and ideally 3–5 competitors), I can identify the platform that gives you the closest thing to an industry-wide AI SOV trend dashboard, rather than just a brand-monitoring tool.

Yes. There’s now a growing category of AI visibility / AEO / GEO platforms that track something very close to “AI share of voice”: how often your brand is mentioned or recommended in AI answers compared with competitors, and how that changes over time. visibilityvalidator.com

A few worth looking at:

The important distinction

If what you really want is:

“Show me how much of the AI conversation my industry owns, who is gaining/losing share, and how that has changed over the last 6–12 months.”

then Seerly, Siftly, and Semrush are probably the first three I'd investigate. Seerly, for example, explicitly provides category-level SOV, competitor shares, historical trend lines, and per-engine breakdowns. seerly.app

But there's a caveat: AI SOV isn't yet as standardized as Google search share of voice. Different platforms sample different prompts, engines, locations, and numbers of runs. Recent research also suggests substantial differences between AI engines, so an aggregate number can hide important variation. machinerelations.ai

If you're thinking about this from a market-intelligence / strategy perspective, rather than just monitoring your own brand, I can also identify the platforms that let you see AI SOV for an entire industry/category—even if you aren't a customer of the platform's own brand-tracking product. That's a slightly different and more interesting use case.

Yes. A few platforms now specifically track AI Share of Voice (AI SOV) — i.e., how often your brand appears in AI-generated answers compared with competitors across ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, etc., and how that changes over time. www.hubspot.com

Some options:

A few things to watch out for:

• There is no universal AI SOV standard yet. Different tools use different prompt sets, models, and weighting methods, so a 15% SOV in one platform may not equal 15% in another. searchengineland.com
• The best tools let you define:
  • your industry/category
  • competitor set
  • buyer-intent prompts (e.g., “best CRM for startups,” “alternatives to Salesforce”)
  • geography/language
  • model coverage (ChatGPT vs Gemini vs Claude, etc.) scrunch.com

If you’re trying to answer “are we gaining or losing visibility in AI recommendations compared with competitors?”, I’d prioritize platforms that show:

1. historical trend lines,
2. competitor share,
3. exact prompts where you win/lose,
4. citations/sources causing the visibility.

If you tell me your industry (e.g., SaaS, healthcare, finance, ecommerce, local services) and whether you care more about ChatGPT/Gemini visibility or AI search traffic, I can narrow this down.

Yes. There’s now a fairly mature category of AI search / AI visibility platforms that track your brand’s “share of voice” across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Gemini, Claude, etc., and show how it changes over time.

Platforms I’d look at

For example, Otterly explicitly tracks Share of AI Voice, competitor visibility, citations, and changes in brand mentions over time. otterly.ai Seerly similarly provides category-level SOV, competitor comparisons, per-engine breakdowns, and historical trends. seerly.app

If what you mean is industry-level SOV

This distinction is important.

If you want:

“What percentage of the AI conversation does my company own in my industry, and how has that changed month by month?”

then Peec, Profound, Otterly, or Seerly are probably closer to what you're looking for.

You'd define a set of industry prompts such as:

• “Best [category] companies”
• “Top [category] providers”
• “Best [product] for [use case]”
• “[Category] alternatives”
• “Compare X vs Y”
• “What should a [buyer persona] look for when choosing [category]?”

The platform repeatedly runs those prompts and calculates something like:

AI Share of Voice = your brand's appearances / total brand appearances across tracked answers

Then you can see, for example:

Your company: 18% → 24% → 31%
Competitor A: 27% → 25% → 22%
Competitor B: 14% → 17% → 19%

That is much more useful than simply asking whether ChatGPT mentions your company.

One caveat: AI SOV isn't yet as standardized as traditional SEO rankings. Different platforms define “visibility,” “mention,” “citation,” and SOV somewhat differently, and AI answers can vary from run to run. Recent research also finds substantial variability across engines and measurement approaches. arxiv.org

If you tell me your industry (e.g. SaaS, insurance, healthcare, legal, cybersecurity, restaurants, etc.), I can recommend the 2–3 platforms that are actually best for that industry and show you exactly what their SOV dashboards look like.

Yes. This has become a new software category over the past year, often called AI visibility, LLM visibility, or AI share of voice (AI SoV). These platforms track how often your brand appears in AI-generated answers, compare you to competitors, and show trends over time across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI features. www.semrush.comsearchengineland.com

Here are the strongest options:

A few things to know before investing:

• These tools don't measure the entire AI ecosystem. They sample a curated set of prompts that represent your industry and repeatedly query AI models. The "share of voice" is therefore an estimate based on that prompt set, not a universal market share. www.semrush.comsearchengineland.com
• The best platforms let you:
  • Define your own prompt library (e.g., "best CRM for manufacturers")
  • Track competitors
  • Break down results by AI platform
  • See historical trends
  • Review the actual AI responses that caused changes

For most B2B companies, I'd currently recommend:

• Enterprise (>$100M revenue): Profound or Semrush Enterprise AIO.
• Mid-market: Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit.
• Startup/SMB: Peec AI, Otterly AI, or LLM Pulse.

If you're asking about your industry specifically, some vendors have vertical benchmarks (for SaaS, healthcare, finance, ecommerce, etc.), but many instead let you define your own competitive set and prompts, which usually produces more actionable data than relying on a generic industry benchmark. www.semrush.comsearchengineland.com

If you tell me your industry (for example, cybersecurity, fintech, legal, manufacturing, healthcare, or ecommerce), I can recommend the platforms that provide the most useful tracking for that market and explain how to build an AI share-of-voice dashboard that reflects buyer behavior.

Yes. A new category of platforms has emerged specifically to measure AI share of voice (AI SoV) or AI visibility—essentially the equivalent of SEO rank tracking for ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.

The leading options are:

What they typically measure

Instead of keywords, these platforms run hundreds or thousands of prompts such as:

• "Best payroll software"
• "Top CRM for startups"
• "Who are the leading cybersecurity consultants?"

They then track:

• Share of voice (% of AI answers mentioning your brand)
• Visibility over time (daily, weekly, monthly)
• Competitor comparisons
• Platform-specific performance (ChatGPT vs Gemini vs Claude vs Perplexity)
• Citation sources used by the AI
• Prompt-level changes (where you gained or lost visibility) www.semrush.comsiftly.ai

If you're interested in industry-wide trends

If your goal is broader than your own brand—for example:

"How has AI visibility in legal software changed over the last year?"

or

"Which brands are gaining mindshare in fintech AI recommendations?"

only a handful of enterprise platforms currently support this well. Profound, Semrush Enterprise, and several newer AI visibility platforms let you define an entire market, monitor multiple competitors, and chart category-level AI share of voice over time. www.semrush.com

One limitation

These tools don't have historical data before you start tracking. Most begin collecting data from the day you add your prompts and competitors. If you want to know what AI share of voice looked like six months ago, that's generally not available because AI responses are dynamic and weren't archived comprehensively. www.reddit.com

If your objective is competitive intelligence, a good setup is to:

1. Define 100–500 high-value prompts for your industry.
2. Track your brand plus 5–10 competitors.
3. Monitor AI share of voice weekly across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI features.
4. Correlate changes with content launches, PR, or product announcements.

If you tell me your industry (for example, cybersecurity, healthcare, HR software, ecommerce, financial services, etc.), I can recommend the platforms that tend to perform best for that specific market and budget.

Yes. A new category of tools has emerged specifically to measure AI share of voice (AI SoV) or AI visibility—essentially, how often your brand appears in answers from ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and similar systems over time.

The strongest options today are:

Most of these measure similar metrics, including:

• AI share of voice
• Brand mention frequency
• Visibility by LLM (ChatGPT vs Gemini vs Claude, etc.)
• Trends over weeks and months
• Competitor benchmarking
• Prompt-level performance ("Which prompts recommend Competitor A instead of us?")
• Citation sources (which websites the AI relied on)
• Sentiment and positioning in answers peec.ai

One thing to keep in mind is that these tools don't measure all AI conversations. Instead, they repeatedly run a curated set of prompts (often hundreds or thousands) and track how the responses change over time. Because AI outputs vary, the trend over many prompt runs is much more meaningful than any single day's score. docs.peec.ai

If you're interested in industry-wide trends (not just your own brand), there are two approaches:

• Track your own prompt set. For example, if you're in cybersecurity, monitor prompts like "best MDR vendors," "SOC alternatives," and "cloud security tools." This gives you your industry's AI share-of-voice trend over time.
• Use benchmark reports. Some vendors publish cross-industry AI visibility benchmarks and annual reports showing average share of voice, citation rates, and category leaders. athenahq.ai

If you're evaluating platforms, I'd generally break them down this way:

• Enterprise: Profound
• Best balance of capability and usability: Peec AI
• Most focused on AI search optimization (GEO/AEO): AthenaHQ
• Budget-friendly: Otterly AI

If you tell me your industry (for example, SaaS, legal, healthcare, fintech, ecommerce, B2B manufacturing, etc.), I can recommend the tools that tend to perform best for that specific market and explain how to build an AI share-of-voice dashboard for it.

Yes. A new category of tools has emerged specifically to measure AI share of voice (AI SoV) or AI visibility—how often your brand appears in responses from ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and similar systems.

The strongest options if you want historical trends are:

Among these, Semrush Enterprise AIO has one of the clearest time-series views. It tracks AI share of voice across selected prompts and competitors and plots changes over time rather than just providing a snapshot. www.semrush.com

What these platforms actually measure

Most track metrics such as:

• AI share of voice (% of AI answers mentioning your brand)
• Mention frequency
• Citation frequency
• Sources AI cites
• Competitor comparisons
• Prompt-level rankings
• Sentiment and positioning
• Visibility by AI engine (ChatGPT vs Gemini vs Perplexity)

Rather than looking at Google keywords, they repeatedly run hundreds or thousands of prompts and measure how AI responses change over weeks and months. askylabs.com

If you want industry trends—not just your brand

This is where things get trickier.

Most platforms are designed for your brand versus competitors, not "the entire fintech industry" or "all healthcare companies."

The better enterprise tools let you:

• define an industry prompt set
• choose competitors
• monitor everyone over time
• identify which brands are gaining AI visibility

That's about as close as you'll get to an "industry AI share of voice index."

One important caveat

AI share of voice is still an evolving metric. Because AI models change frequently and every platform samples a finite set of prompts, the numbers should be treated as directional trends rather than precise market-share figures. Many experts recommend focusing on month-over-month movement, prompt coverage, and citation quality instead of a single percentage. searchengineland.com

If your goal is competitive intelligence (e.g., "Which insurance brands are gaining visibility in ChatGPT?"), these tools are well suited. If your goal is industry-wide benchmarking across thousands of companies, there isn't yet a Bloomberg-style public index for AI share of voice.

If you tell me your industry (for example, cybersecurity, legal tech, healthcare, fintech, ecommerce, or SaaS), I can recommend the platform that tends to have the best coverage for that vertical.

Yes. There are now several platforms specifically built to track AI Share of Voice (AI SOV) — i.e., how often your brand appears in AI-generated answers versus competitors, and how that changes over time across tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and AI Overviews. www.hubspot.comsiftly.ai

A few options:

A few things to watch for when evaluating them:

• Prompt set methodology: The best tools let you define the actual buyer questions in your industry (e.g., “best CRM for startups,” “top accounting firms,” “enterprise cybersecurity vendors”) rather than using a generic score. www.frictionai.co
• Competitor benchmarking: You want a view like “Brand A 32%, Brand B 24%, Brand C 18%” over a consistent prompt set. www.hubspot.comsiftly.ai
• Platform breakdown: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI experiences can produce different results, so platform-level trends matter. www.hubspot.comsiftly.ai
• Citation tracking: Mentions alone can be misleading; seeing which websites, reviews, publications, or datasets AI systems cite is often more actionable. www.skulift.comscrunch.com

If you’re looking for an “industry benchmark dashboard” (e.g., “AI SOV for all major SaaS companies in cybersecurity over the last 12 months”), the market is still immature. Most tools are designed around your brand + your chosen competitors + your tracked prompts, rather than a universal industry index. searchengineland.com

If you tell me your industry (e.g., fintech, healthcare, SaaS, ecommerce, agencies) and whether you care about B2B or consumer, I can suggest the best-fit tool and setup.
