AI visibility alerts in Slack, Teams and webhooks
Proofsource sends AI visibility moments where your team already talks. Connect Slack and Proofsource picks or creates a channel for you, then posts moments and digests: a competitor overtaking you in ChatGPT, a new source citing you, a fix that worked. Microsoft Teams and signed webhooks get the same moments, and you can ask Proofsource questions in Slack threads.

What is an AI visibility alert in Slack?
AI answers change daily. ChatGPT may start recommending a competitor this week, Perplexity may drop a page it cited for months, and Google AI Overviews may pick up a fix you shipped. A dashboard records all of it, but people check dashboards weekly at best. AI visibility alerts push the moments that matter to the place your team already reads.
Good alerts are few and specific. They name the buyer question, the engine, what changed and what to do next. They go to the right channel, not to everyone's inbox, and they can feed your own systems when you want automation.
Proofsource sends moments and digests to Slack and Microsoft Teams and as signed webhooks. When you connect Slack, Proofsource sets up the channel itself: it keeps a channel you already chose, picks one clearly named for Proofsource or your brand, or creates a private #proofsource channel and labels it. Teams uses the Workflows webhook Microsoft now recommends, and webhooks are signed and retried so a short outage does not lose a moment.

Questions about Slack, Teams and webhook alerts
How do I get AI visibility alerts in Slack?
Connect Slack from the Integrations page. Proofsource sets up the channel and starts posting the moments you turn on, such as competitor changes, new sources and fix results.
Which channel will Proofsource use?
If you already chose one, it stays. If exactly one channel is named for Proofsource or your brand, Proofsource picks it. Otherwise it creates a private #proofsource channel, labels it with a first message, and you can change it any time.
Does it work with Microsoft Teams?
Yes. Add a Teams Workflows webhook URL for the channel and Proofsource posts the same moments there.
Can I send alerts to my own systems?
Yes. Add a webhook URL. Each delivery is signed with your secret and retried for about a day and a half if your endpoint is down.
Which engines do alerts cover?
Moments come from Proofsource's answer data for every engine your plan covers, up to 10 AI engines: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek and Meta AI.
Can I ask Proofsource questions in Slack?
Yes. Mention Proofsource in a thread and it reads the thread and replies there.
Will alerts flood the channel?
No. You choose which moments each channel gets, and digests group the rest.
How is this different from Profound's Slack integration?
Profound's Slack and Teams integration is strong for chatting with its AI Marketer. Proofsource focuses on change moments and digests, sets up the channel itself, and adds signed webhooks.
