Three signals, one score

Your buyers ask AI before they ask you, and every AI answer either cites your pages, names your brand, or leaves you out. ZipTie measures all three on every engine you track, and rolls them into one score your leadership can follow.

Citations

Your pages used as sources in AI answers. Citations drive direct, high-intent traffic.

Mentions

Your brand named inside the answer itself. Mentions drive branded searches and awareness.

Sentiment

How the answer portrays you: positive, neutral, or negative. Sentiment decides whether a mention helps or hurts.

The three, in one number.

AI Success Score

Citations, mentions, and sentiment in one 0-100 trend line. One glance tells you whether you are winning AI search.

How ZipTie works

From "what should I track?" to "what should I change next?" - in three steps.

  1. Set up in minutes

    The AI Project Wizard reads your site, learns what you sell, and proposes the prompts your customers are most likely to ask AI engines. Pick a country, a language, and a check frequency. The engines you monitor are set once on your workspace plan and apply to every project in it. No spreadsheets, no SEO degree, no manual research.

  2. Monitor what AI says

    ZipTie runs every prompt across every engine you enable on your schedule - daily, weekly, or monthly - and captures the full answer your customers actually see, including mentions, sentiment, citations, and competitor recommendations. The first check is queued automatically once you finish creating the project, and a notification tells you when it lands. Your history starts there: no AI engine publishes what it said before you began tracking, so ZipTie cannot backfill it, and the dashboard date range reaches back 365 days at most. Search Console is the exception - it backfills its own last 30 days when you connect it.

  3. Ship the right change

    Every prompt gets an AI Success Score from 0-100 that blends its citation rate, mention rate, and sentiment. The Action Center turns those answers into one ranked queue per project - the prompt no engine mentions or cites, the competitor that just overtook you, the tag lagging the rest of your project - each item deep-linked to the screen where you do the work, and cleared from the queue once you dismiss it or the next check confirms the fix. You publish the change; ZipTie shows you the answer move on the next scheduled check.

Why teams choose ZipTie

Built by SEO experts who saw AI search coming. Designed for teams who need to act, not just watch.

The answer your customers actually see

Every check captures the answer each engine actually returned for your prompt, so your dashboard reflects the live internet, not a synthetic test environment.

7 engines, one dashboard

All of them, tracked, compared, and optimized in one place. No tab-switching between tools.

Coverage where your buyers are

Track nearly every country. AI answers shift between Germany and Austria - your monitoring should too. Pick a country when you set a project up and ZipTie names any engine that cannot be checked there, before the project starts running.

Unlimited seats and projects

Bring your whole team and every brand you manage. Pricing never counts seats or projects. Members hold one of four roles - Guest, User, Admin, Owner - and a workspace has exactly one Owner: the only person who can change the plan or its add-ons, and the only member who cannot be removed.

The full ZipTie platform

The three-step loop runs on top of the core modules and three optional add-ons, each built to answer one question well.

The add-ons price differently from each other. Public API & MCP is a flat $10 a month. Content Generation is $20 a month per content context slot, and each slot adds 8 briefs and 4 content pieces to your workspace's monthly pool. UGC Impact Analysis is not a flat fee at all: it multiplies your whole prompts-and-engines subtotal by 1.8x, so it is the biggest single lever on your bill.

Overview Dashboard

Your AI presence at a glance. AI Success Score, citation rate, mention rate, and sentiment shape, each with its change across the date range you pick, plus best and worst prompts and your top competitors - one screen, the whole story.

LLM Trends

Performance trends across all 7 engines, side by side. Spot a Perplexity drop early. Catch a ChatGPT win and double down. Toggle between citation, mention, sentiment, and AI Success Score views.

Project Wizard

Guided chat onboarding that reads your site, runs web research, and proposes the prompts your customers are most likely to ask AI engines - including category, comparison, and persona queries. Skip the spreadsheet exercise.

Search Console

Google Search Console, fully integrated: clicks, impressions, top queries, and top pages next to your AI answers, so classic search and AI answers sit in one view for one decision.

Exports & sharing

CSV, Excel, and PDF exports, plus public share links for stakeholders who live outside the dashboard, so the people who never log in still see the win.

Add-on

UGC Impact Analysis

The third-party sources shaping AI answers, ranked by citation share with per-platform trends - including deep Reddit coverage, auto-clustered topics, and a topic graph. ZipTie even suggests new prompts to track based on the conversations that keep coming up.

Add-on

Content Generation

Briefs and full content pieces engineered for AI search. Learn your writing style from your existing pages, draft pieces with a built-in fact-check and revision loop, and ship with Harvard-style footnote citations. Publish it, then watch the score move on the next scheduled check.

Add-on

Public API & MCP

REST and Model Context Protocol access at api.ziptie.ai. Pull every prompt, response, mention, citation, and metric programmatically, or hand the same surface to Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code, and other MCP-aware agents with one token. The full reference, with the OpenAPI spec and live requests, is at docs.ziptie.ai.

Trusted by SEO leaders

That platform is already the daily tool for the people writing the AI-search playbook. Real data, real workflows, real results.

ZipTie has become my go to tool to monitor my sites, clients and competitors inclusion in AI Overviews, effectively assess the impact over traffic and identify the best way to optimize for them. I can highly recommend it!

ZipTie has been essential for tracking AI Overviews in their early roll out. Our team loves being able to monitor the AI Overview landscape for our clients and as a competitive research tool.

ZipTie covers two critical datapoints you can hardly find anywhere else: site indexing and AI Overviews. Without being indexed, you cannot rank. Without monitoring AI Overviews, you cannot tap into opportunities. That makes ZipTie a critical tool for SEO teams for me.

Pricing that scales with what you track, not who you hire

The same teams trust the numbers because the pricing is just as honest. No seat fees. No project fees. You pay for the prompts you monitor and the engines you run them on. A prompt is a monitored slot, not a charge per check: a daily prompt is checked every day for that one slot, every project in the workspace draws on the same daily, weekly and monthly pools, and deleting a prompt hands its slot back - though deleting a whole project does not. Plans start at $42.75 per month.

Try ZipTie free for 7 days first. No card required, no auto-billing.

Prices are in US dollars. The workspace Owner can cancel at any time; access then runs to the end of the period already paid for, and there are no refunds for unused time.

Frequently Asked Questions

ZipTie tracks how AI search engines talk about your brand and shows you what to change to win more answers. We monitor ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, Microsoft Copilot, Bing AI Overview, and Google Gemini - capturing mentions, sentiment, citations, full responses, and competitor recommendations - then turn that data into ranked next steps.

What you get:

  • Answers captured from the live consumer products across all 7 major AI engines (not model API stubs)
  • An AI-powered Project Wizard that suggests the right prompts in minutes
  • AI Success Scores that prioritize what to optimize first
  • A content generation module that drafts AI-search-ready pieces with a built-in fact-check loop (add-on)
  • Public REST and MCP access, so AI agents can query your data directly (add-on)
  • Coverage in most countries, with the wizard naming any engine your country cannot serve before you commit

Full-suite SEO tools treat AI search as one tab among many. ZipTie is built for AI search end to end - the data model, the metrics, the scoring, the optimization workflow are all designed for how AI engines actually work. We don't replace your SEO suite; we go deep where it goes shallow.

  • Specialized depth. UGC Impact Analysis, AI success scoring, real browser-session capture, content generation with a fact-check loop - features other tools don't ship.
  • Built for action. Optimization workflows, not just dashboards. You finish a session knowing what to change.
  • Agent-ready by default. A public REST API plus an MCP server, so Claude Desktop, Cursor, and custom AI agents can query your ZipTie data the same way your dashboards do.

Minutes for a single project via the Project Wizard. An hour for a careful multi-brand or multi-region rollout. The wizard reads your site, proposes prompts, configures your country and language, and you're collecting data the same day. Nothing on your site has to be wired up first.

Each tracked prompt gets a single 0-100 score that summarizes how well you're performing on that prompt across AI engines. The score is built from three signals captured for every prompt:

  • Mentions rate - how often your brand appears in the AI answer
  • Mentions sentiment - how positively the answer describes you when you do appear
  • Citations rate - how often the AI engine links to your URLs as a source

Sort by score and you have your optimization queue - work on what's underperforming first.

A single AI answer is a sample, not a fact - the same prompt can vary cycle to cycle. ZipTie captures and archives every measurement, so trends are built across many measurements over time rather than depending on a single snapshot. A real change in visibility separates itself from random variance over a few cycles; one-off outliers stay visible as the underlying data point but don't move the longer trend. You can drill into any score and see the actual responses that produced it.

No. Your prompts, the AI responses captured on your behalf, and your account data are used to operate ZipTie's monitoring service for you - not to train any model, and not shared with third parties for training purposes. The AI engines we monitor are public consumer products; the data we generate from them on your behalf belongs to you.

Yes. A 7-day free trial covering ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, and Perplexity, with no card required at signup. The other engines (Google AI Mode, Microsoft Copilot, Bing AI Overview, and Google Gemini) unlock on a paid plan. You can downgrade or cancel from workspace settings any time. We don't refund paid subscriptions, so we recommend using the trial to validate ZipTie fits your workflow before upgrading.

What's in it: 25 monitored prompts on a daily refresh. The trial's capacity is all daily, so trial projects run daily checks - weekly and monthly cadences appear once you're on a plan that includes them. UGC Impact Analysis is not part of the trial; it is an add-on you switch on when you build a plan.

What isn't: the API and MCP surface stays off for the whole trial. A trial workspace is refused at the API regardless of the add-on, so schedule any integration testing for after you upgrade. Add-ons are chosen as part of the plan you subscribe to rather than bolted onto a running trial, so UGC Impact Analysis and Content Generation start when you add them to a paid subscription, not during the trial. And the trial is once per person - it's available on your first workspace and can't be started again on a second one.

Nothing is tiered: you build your own plan from prompt count, refresh frequency, and engine coverage, with optional add-ons on top. Teammates and projects are unlimited, with no per-user charge. The pricing page shows current numbers. Longer billing periods carry a discount vs. monthly: 3 months -5%, 6 months -10%, annual -20%. For unusual configurations or large prompt volumes, see custom plans below.
