What you can do
- Check brand visibility on ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Mode, and Google AI Overview: visibility, mention rate, share of voice, citation rate, and your strongest and weakest platform.
- Follow the trend day by day, by platform or by topic, and compare with the previous period.
- Compare against the competitors you track: a ranked board, a platform × brand matrix, and which brands AI names next to you.
- Read the AI answers themselves: every answer per prompt and platform, the brands it named, and the sources it cited.
- Analyze citations: which domains and URLs AI cites for your prompts, whether your own site is among them, and the links AI writes into its answers.
- Find blind spots: prompts where AI never mentions you, and topics where you are weak on a given platform.
- See how AI describes you: sentiment, the attributes AI praises or criticizes, and the exact sentences.
- Track AI shopping: how your products show up in ChatGPT and Google AI Mode shopping cards, and who takes the shelf when you don’t.
- Check your website: GEO audit results, agent readiness scans, and AI referral traffic from GA4 or Cloudflare.
- Research a market with public industry data: category leaders, brand momentum, white space, AI search demand, and AI shopping boards.
- Run ready-made reports with seven built-in prompts, such as the weekly pulse, competitor radar, and campaign tracker.
- Manage your setup: create brands, topics, prompts, and competitors, retag or move prompts, archive prompts, or start a monitoring run. Your client asks you to confirm before every change.
How it works
1. Connect Add the server URL to your AI tool. The setup guide has the exact steps for each client. 2. Sign in Your client opens GEOly in the browser. Choose the organization and what the client may read or change, then approve. This happens once per client. 3. Ask questions or run a prompt Ask in plain language:- “How did our visibility on ChatGPT change over the last 30 days?”
- “Which tracked competitor gained the most this week, and on which platform?”
- “Which prompts never mention us?”
Connection details
Your client may ask for these details:https://app.geoly.ai/api/mcp (without /v1) points to the same server. You can also copy the URL in GEOly under Settings → Developers → MCP.
Authentication
Your client opens a GEOly consent page in the browser. Sign in, then choose:- Organization scope. Pick one organization to read and change it. Pick all organizations to read across them; write tools are turned off for that connection so a change can never land in the wrong place.
- Read and write access per resource. Brands, topics, prompts, competitors, citations, sentiment, platforms, analytics, audits, sources, public data, and monitoring runs each have their own read and write switch. Grant write access only for what the client has to change.
Older read-only
geom_ tokens keep working for existing setups. New connections should use OAuth.Read and write access
Most tools only read data. Eight tools change your setup:create_brand, create_topic, create_prompt, update_prompt_tags, move_prompts_to_topic, archive_prompt, create_competitor, and trigger_prompt.
Every write tool is flagged readOnlyHint: false, and the two that replace existing data (update_prompt_tags, move_prompts_to_topic) are also flagged destructiveHint: true, so your client asks you to confirm before the call runs. trigger_prompt starts a real monitoring run.
See the tools reference for every tool.
Plans and MCP Credits
Reading your own data and public industry data uses MCP Credits, a monthly allowance shared by your organization. Navigation, discovery, audits, website traffic, every write tool, and the three public source tools are free.- Price per tool. Each tool’s description ends with its cost: free, a fixed price per call (1, 3, or 10 credits), or a price per row returned. The tools reference lists them all.
- Public industry intelligence needs Grow or above and the public data read grant.
- No charge for failures. Errors and timeouts are not charged. A single call costs at most 2,500 credits.
- Check your balance with
get_quota(free). Every metered call also returns a_quotareceipt with its cost and your remaining balance. A balance of-1means unlimited. - When credits run out, free tools keep working. Metered tools return a quota error until the allowance resets on your subscription date.
The Agent Skill
The MCP connection decides what your assistant can reach. The GEOly Agent Skill teaches it how to use that well: find the organization and brand first, pick the right tool, and explain each metric the way the app defines it. The skill doesn’t add access or credits. Install it alongside the MCP connection.Supported clients
