Real-time AI visibility monitoring, live and on replay
Proofsource's live view lets everyone on a brand watch the work done for it as it happens: each question asked, each engine's answer, each check and each fix step, as activity rows that update on open pages without a refresh. Miss it and you can replay the run, share a replay link or read the email digest.

Real-time AI visibility monitoring, explained
Real-time AI visibility monitoring means watching AI answer engines respond to your tracked questions as the answers arrive, instead of waiting for a weekly report. It matters most on scan days, after a fix ships and during a pitch, when people want to see the evidence form rather than read a summary afterward.
Proofsource records every step of its work for a brand as an activity row: the question asked, the engine that answered, whether your brand was named, the sources cited, and the checks that followed. Open pages receive new rows as they happen. Each run can be replayed later, marked as seen, shared as a public link or summarized in an email digest.
How it works
Watch every question Proofsource asks for your brand as it happens, then replay it or share a replay link.
Record each step
Every question, answer and check is written as an activity row with its kind and coverage.
Push to open pages
A change stream sends new rows to every open dashboard for that brand.
Watch by engine
The engine view groups live answers by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot and other AI engines.
Replay later
Any past run replays in order, with marks for what you have already seen.
Share or digest

Do I need to refresh the page?
No. New activity is pushed to open pages as it happens.
Can I watch a run I missed?
Yes. Every run can be replayed in order, with marks for what you have already seen.
Can I share a replay with someone outside my team?
Yes. You can create a public replay link and send it to a client, a prospect or your boss.
Is there an email summary?
Yes. An email digest summarizes live activity by engine.
Which engines show up in the live view?
Every engine your plan covers, up to 10: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek and Meta AI. The free trial runs four.
How is this different from a daily tracker like SE Ranking or Profound?
Both run on a reliable daily schedule. Proofsource also lets you watch each run as it happens and replay it later, which helps on scan days, pitches and after a fix.
