> Daily AI prompt tracking with a ranked plan for each missed answer

Checked Oct 23, 2026 · graded Oct 24, 2026 by ToolGPA.

MentionBird asks a brand's buyer prompts every day on ChatGPT and Gemini, and on more AI platforms on higher plans, scores how often and how prominently the brand is named, and shows the sources behind each answer. An agent then writes a ranked plan of moves for each prompt the brand is missing from. It comes from AdNabu, which has made marketing software for Shopify merchants for over a decade.

- **Two months free with annual billing** (Annual discount): MentionBird's pricing page prices annual plans at 10 months instead of 12: Starter is $790 a year and Growth $2,990. Source: https://www.mentionbird.ai/pricing

## Key features

- **Daily prompt runs:** Asks each prompt every day on the platforms you pick for it, from one shared daily pool of runs, and can target each prompt to a country.
- **Visibility and prominence scores:** How often you are named, how high in the answer, average position, share of voice and rank among the brands named, with up to 365 days of history.
- **Prompt research:** Suggests prompts across five kinds of buying question, from problem to head-to-head, and scores each from 1 to 10 for volume and difficulty.
- **Sources and citations:** Lists the sites and pages each answer is built from, with an authority score, source and format breakdowns, and the keywords AI platforms search with.
- **Ranking advice agent:** For a prompt you are missing from, suggests 3 to 6 moves ranked by effort and impact, at 5 agent credits per plan. It also summarizes cited YouTube videos.
- **MCP server and API:** Connects to Claude, Claude Code and Cursor over MCP, and to ChatGPT and Gemini through an OpenAPI spec, with read-only or read-write keys on every plan.

## Good for

- SaaS marketing teams tracking buying questions stage by stage
- Brands that sell in several countries and need answers per market
- Teams that want to query AI visibility data from Claude or Cursor

## Worth knowing

- There is no free plan or free trial; the free report checks five questions on ChatGPT only.
- Starter tracks only ChatGPT and Gemini; Perplexity and Claude need Growth, and Grok, AI Overviews, Copilot and DeepSeek need Custom.
- A run is one prompt on one platform once a day, unused runs do not roll over, and 50 extra runs cost $49 a month.
- Ranking plans spend agent credits, 5 per plan; extra credits cost $99 for 500.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.0 out of 4**, graded Oct 24, 2026. MentionBird asks your buyer prompts daily, scores how often and how high you're named, and writes a ranked plan of 3 to 6 moves for each prompt you miss. But Starter covers only ChatGPT and Gemini, Perplexity and Claude need Growth at $249 a month billed yearly, there's no free plan or trial, and extra runs and agent credits cost more.

- **Value for money: C.** Starter is $66 a month billed yearly, $79 monthly, for 100 runs a day on ChatGPT and Gemini. That's between this category's $49 middle and its dearer quarter at $95. Perplexity and Claude need Growth at $249, in the dearest tenth.
- **Free plan and trial: D.** No free plan or trial. A free report checks 5 questions on ChatGPT only, which shows where you stand once.
- **Features: C.** Daily runs per country, visibility and prominence scores, prompt research, sources with authority scores, and an agent that ranks 3 to 6 moves for each missed prompt. The gap the listing names: Starter covers only ChatGPT and Gemini.
- **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. Runs come from one shared daily pool you split across prompts and platforms, and ranking plans spend agent credits, so there are allowances to manage.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only, with no desktop or phone app. Every plan has read-only or read-write API keys, an MCP server for Claude, Claude Code and Cursor, and an OpenAPI spec for ChatGPT and Gemini.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** Nothing MentionBird does is plain enough to make in a weekend. The 3 things listed below take a company. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 90 of the 157 other AI search visibility tools grade higher. It costs $792 a year.

- You could not: The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept.
- You could not: A score built from what the top results for each keyword cover.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Claude, Claude Code and Cursor among them, and has an API.

A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it.
