How tasks are prioritized

How GetIntel turns findings into tasks and ranks them by reach, topics helped, fit and effort, and why a task appears, moves or disappears.

GetIntel ranks tasks by how much they are likely to move your AI visibility for the effort they take. Every task list is sorted best first.

After each scoring run, GetIntel collects everything worth fixing: pages to write or refresh, lists and reviews that don’t mention you, Reddit and video opportunities, and technical problems. Similar findings merge into one task, so dozens of findings on a 10-topic brand usually become 20 to 30 tasks. A task that helps several topics becomes one task with a higher rank, not several.

Four things decide a task’s score:

FactorWhat it means
ReachHow many AI answers and buyer questions the task touches.
Topics helpedHow many of your topics it moves. More topics rank higher, with diminishing returns.
FitWhether this lever is the topic’s actual bottleneck. Writing a page helps most where you have no page; outreach helps most where AI relies on third-party sources.
EffortThe estimated time to do it. More effort lowers the score.

Roughly: score = evidence × topic boost × fit ÷ effort, where evidence grows with reach and topic boost grows with the number of topics helped.

A task shows up once it is confirmed: found on at least 2 separate days, or backed by at least 3 answers. This keeps one unusual answer from filling your list.

  • Detected as done: GetIntel no longer finds the problem on a new scan, so the task resolves itself.
  • Done: you marked it done.
  • Not relevant: you dismissed it.
  • Snoozed: hidden for 2 weeks.

Rankings are rebuilt after every daily scan. A task climbs when it starts touching more answers or more topics, and drops when its evidence fades.
