about 4 hours ago by Anmol Verma
We're introducing Brand Explorer — a zero-setup research tool that gives you an instant view of how any brand appears across ChatGPT
Enter any brand name or domain, and Brand Explorer analyzes it against Writesonic's proprietary prompt dataset — surfacing visibility metrics, competitive benchmarks, cited sources, and the exact AI-generated answers driving (or missing) brand mentions. No project configuration needed.
New Features
🔍 Brand Analysis
- Analyze any brand or domain instantly — no setup or project configuration required.
- Optionally add competitors for a side-by-side comparison in the same analysis.

Why It Matters
Until now, understanding AI visibility required setting up a tracked project first. Brand Explorer removes that barrier — making it possible to benchmark any brand in seconds, run live competitive analyses, and identify content gaps before committing to a full tracking setup.
Use it to:
- Prospect and demo — Run a live Brand Explorer analysis on a prospect's brand during discovery calls.
- Benchmark competitors — Identify how competitors are outperforming your brand across specific topics and prompts.
- Discover content gaps — See which third-party pages AI platforms trust more than your own, and understand why.
- Inform your GEO strategy — Use Brand Explorer findings to prioritize topics, prompts, and content investments in your GEO projects.
Notes
- Each Brand Explorer analysis costs one search credit.
- Data is sourced from Writesonic's proprietary prompt dataset and is periodically refreshed to reflect the most current AI responses.
