A growing chunk of the research people used to do on Google now happens by just asking ChatGPT or Perplexity directly, and if an AI answer engine doesn't mention your brand when someone asks 'what's the best tool for X', you lose that customer without ever knowing it happened — traditional SEO tools that track Google rankings don't see any of this. Gauge is built to fill that blind spot: it watches how AI engines answer real prompts over time and shows you exactly where your brand shows up, where a competitor is winning instead, and where you're invisible entirely. Gauge is a YC-backed AI marketing agent that unifies fragmented data sources (GA4, Google Search Console, keyword and prompt data) into a single system tracking brand visibility across generative AI answer engines — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity. Core capabilities include prompt tracking over time, brand coverage and gap analysis (where a brand is missing from AI answers versus where it currently appears), and competitive positioning. It's already used by marketing teams at YC companies including Supabase, PostHog, and Mux. Pricing: Growth tier at $599/month (600 daily prompts tracked across major models, plus 18 monthly content pieces from its content engine); Enterprise is custom-priced. Gauge cites typical customers seeing a 3-5x visibility uplift within the first month.
