Overview

GEO Monitoring Dashboard gives enterprise marketing and SEO teams continuous visibility into how their brand and competitors are performing across AI search models — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, and more. Instead of running one-off GEO audits manually, teams configure queries once and the dashboard populates with trend data automatically, surfacing regressions and content opportunities as they happen. This feature is for enterprise accounts with active GEO programs who need ongoing brand performance tracking, not just point-in-time snapshots.

How to Use

Step 1: Configure a dashboard view

Select the brand and URLs you would like to monitor GEO for. The URLs you provide will be scanned for page-health recommendations so include multiple page families. A brand automatically covers its root domain and every subdomain beneath it — see Domain and Brand Coverage for what a single brand does and doesn’t include.

Step 2: Load your prompts

From the GEO Monitoring Dashboard, assemble the prompts you want tracked over time. Prompts can be bulk-uploaded in the dashboard interface and will need to have a topic in addition to the prompt itself. By default, we will run your prompts against all providers supported in Gradial. To bulk-upload, open a brand on the GEO dashboard — either Edit an existing brand or create a New Brand — then open the Prompts tab and click Bulk Import. The Bulk Import dialog includes a link to download the upload template to fill in your prompts. You can assign each prompt to a topic and specific personas, then upload your spreadsheet through the same dialog. You can also add prompts one at a time with Add prompt. Every prompt has one topic, and prompts can also carry tags — see Topics and Tags for how the two differ and when to use each. Not sure what to monitor? See Example monitoring prompts for a starter set of 20+ prompts you can adapt, plus a downloadable template.

Step 3: Run monitoring

Once your brand is set up for recurring monitoring, GEO runs automatically every day in the background — there’s nothing to schedule on the user end. From the Prompts tab you can also click Run monitoring to trigger a run on demand.
It may still take up to a day for results to appear after triggering a run.

Step 4: Let the dashboard build over time

The dashboard populates as runs accumulate. Trends sharpen as history builds — the longer you let monitoring run, the richer your trend view becomes.

Step 5: Open Insights → GEO

Review trend lines, drill into individual responses, and convert page-health recommendations into tasks with one click.

Domain and Brand Coverage

Adding a root domain covers all of its subdomains

When you add a root domain such as example.com, the brand automatically covers everything ending in .example.com — including non-English subdomains like in.example.com. Language doesn’t matter: those pages count toward the brand automatically, and you don’t need to list each subdomain individually. These pages always count toward your brand — never as a competitor — and they roll up into the brand’s overall report.
Subdomain pages are counted when an AI answer cites them — GEO measures your brand’s presence in AI responses. They roll up into the brand’s combined score rather than being broken out by subdomain. There is no per-subdomain or per-region breakdown within a single brand report today.

A different web address is not covered automatically

Coverage applies only to true subdomains of the domain you added. A separate web address that does not end in your root domain is a different site and must be added on its own.
Country sites on a different top-level domain are a common miss. example.cn is a different address (.cn, not .example.com), so adding only example.com will not capture that country site — its results are missed entirely.To cover both in this example, add two domains: example.com (covers all .example.com subdomains) and example.cn (covers the country site on the separate domain).

Structuring Brands by Region

For brands with distinct regional sites, set up one GEO Monitoring configuration per region — a separate brand run for each — and switch between them with the brand dropdown. For example:
  • Brand USexample.com
  • Brand Indiain.example.com
  • Brand Chinaexample.cn
Each is its own independent report with its own prompts. Tailor each brand’s prompts to that region’s market, pages, and competitors.
This is a recommended workaround for today. First-class support for tracking multiple regions within a single brand configuration is on the roadmap; this section will be updated when it lands.

Example monitoring prompts

GEO Monitoring works best with a broad set of prompts — typically 20 or more — that cover the different ways buyers ask AI search engines about your category, your brand, and your competitors. A single prompt only tells you about one question; the value comes from the spread. The examples below are a starter set you can adapt. Replace [Your Brand] and [Competitor A] / [Competitor B] with real names, and reshape the topics around your market.
Personas: The Personas column should be filled in with personas that already exist in your organization. Populate it with the names of your pre-existing personas so prompts are attributed to the right audiences — don’t invent new persona names in the spreadsheet.
To upload in bulk, download the template, fill in your prompts, and import it from the Prompts tab (see Step 2).

Topics and Tags

Every monitoring prompt has a topic, and prompts can also carry tags. They serve different purposes — topics describe what a prompt is about and shape the report, while tags are a flexible way to organize and filter your prompts.
TopicTags
What it’s forSays what a prompt is about (e.g. “Agentic Marketing Platforms”)A labeling layer for organizing and filtering your prompts
How many per promptExactly one — required on every promptAny number — none, one, or many
Reused across promptsEach prompt has its own topic; the topic also serves as the prompt’s nameYes — the same tag is reused across prompts and managed at the org level

In Grady’s analysisSent to Grady as context (“this query is about X”), which can shape how brand and competitor mentions are interpretedTags are for your own organization — they don’t influence Grady’s analysis, so you can label freely without affecting results

When to use each

  • Topic — set the one thing each prompt is about. It names the prompt, appears in the report, and gives Grady context for interpreting results.
  • Tags — group and slice prompts however your team works: by audience (enterprise), intent (competitive), campaign (Q2-launch), funnel stage (top-of-funnel), and so on. In Settings you can then filter to, say, every prompt tagged enterprise across all topics.

Can a prompt be in more than one topic?

No — a prompt has exactly one topic (the topic is a single field that also names the prompt). For example, “What are the best AI agents for automating marketing campaigns?” can be Agentic Marketing Platforms or Marketing Automation, but not both. When you want a prompt to belong to more than one group, that’s what tags are for: add both agentic-marketing and marketing-automation as tags, and the prompt surfaces when you filter by either in Settings. Keep in mind that tag filtering happens in Settings — the report groups by topic, so you can’t break the report itself down by tag.
