Why is my visibility zero?

The causes of a zero visibility score in GetIntel, ordered by how quickly you can rule each one out, with how to check and when zero is expected.

A visibility of zero means no answer in the window named your brand. Work through these causes in order: the first ones take seconds to rule out.

How to check: a new brand or topic shows Collecting data, or Home’s period covers only today.

Fix: wait for the first scans, and set Home to 7 days.

How to check: open Prompts and filter by No answer. If most answers are there, the engines returned nothing to read.

Fix: no answers are left out of scores. If one engine keeps returning nothing, see An engine shows No answer.

GetIntel still counts your brand when AI writes the name a little differently, such as a shortened name, different spacing or a different spelling. A name that is wrong in your settings is a different problem.

How to check: open a few answers in Prompts and compare the name AI uses with the product name in Settings → Product & audience.

Fix: if the settings name is out of date or isn’t the name buyers use, change it there.

How to check: read a few answers. Do they talk about another market?

Fix: check your market in Settings → Markets. See Common setup mistakes.

5. The questions don’t match your product

Section titled “5. The questions don’t match your product”

How to check: read your prompts. Would a real buyer of your product ask them?

Fix: improve your product description and Add prompt for the questions buyers really ask.

A newer or smaller brand in a crowded category often starts at zero: AI names the brands its sources mention most. That is exactly what GetIntel is for. Look at Sources to see which sites AI relies on, and work your Off-Page tasks to get onto them.
