Beamtrace

Beamtrace is an AI brand visibility tracker that measures whether AI search engines like ChatGPT recommend your business when people ask real questions.

What is Beamtrace?

Beamtrace is an AI brand visibility tracking tool. You enter your website URL, and it generates prompts relevant to your business, then checks AI search platforms for answers. It outputs an AI Visibility Score, mention frequency, trend analysis, and competitor comparisons. The tool is built by the team behind Elfsight, a SaaS company with over 3 million active users worldwide and 13 years of experience.

What makes Beamtrace stand out?

Unlike traditional SEO tools that track keyword rankings in search engine results pages, Beamtrace focuses on AI-generated answers — where users get direct recommendations instead of links. Key features include:

• AI Visibility Score — an overall measure of your brand's presence in AI search results, based on how often and how prominently AI recommends you.
• Mention frequency — how often AI mentions or recommends your brand across supported platforms.
• Trend analysis — how your AI visibility changes over time, so you can spot improvements or declines.
• Competitor comparison — side-by-side visibility benchmarks against other brands in AI answers, including strengths and weaknesses.
• Prompt-level visibility — performance for specific business-critical prompts, with average position and topic grouping.
• Breakdown of every mention — explore each query where your brand appears, with context, position, and sentiment.
• Platform coverage — currently supports ChatGPT, with Google Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, DeepSeek, and Grok planned.

Who is Beamtrace for?

• Agencies & Freelancers — track AI search visibility for multiple clients and report on AI-driven discovery beyond traditional SEO.
• Startups — understand how AI search engines present your product and identify early visibility gaps as demand grows.
• Business Owners — see whether AI search mentions your business when customers ask real questions, without needing SEO expertise.
• Marketing Teams — monitor brand presence in AI answers, track competitors, and measure visibility trends across AI platforms.
