Understandable. But you're drawing the wrong conclusion.
Prompt tracking tells you whether you're mentioned. Not why. And as long as you don't know why, you're optimising for a measurement tool instead of for reality.
That reality is this: AI recommends brands it understands. Brands it knows who they are, who they serve, and why they're worth recommending. You don't build that understanding with a better prompt set. You build it with sharp positioning, a consistent presence in the right places, and proof that others confirm your claim.

Want to know which five and what you can do about it? We wrote a comprehensive deep dive.
Peter has been working in the world of search since 2008. What started with SEA and SEO grew with the profession: from Facebook marketing and YouTube strategy to a broader focus on discoverability beyond Google's beaten paths. What remained is the fascination with how platforms work, and how that keeps changing. That fascination has only grown now that AI is fundamentally changing the landscape: not just how people search, but how we as marketers do our work.
