We took the top 3 Product Hunt launches and asked ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude the exact questions their buyers ask: “Best browser for Claude Code?” “How do I track agent run costs?” “Best open-source Grok alternative?” Nine answers. Zero mentions. AI sent their buyers elsewhere. That’s how AI search works. It pulls from pages it trusts—listicles, Reddit, comparisons, YouTube. If you’re not there, you’re not in the answer. MentionBird helps you fix that.

Hey Product Hunt, I'm Salil, maker of MentionBird.
I spent a decade helping brands get found on Google. Then buyers started asking ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity "what's the best X for Y" instead, and most brands had no idea what AI was saying about them. When they checked, the answer usually stung: years of Google rankings, and still not named.
AI answers aren't built from your rankings. They're built from the sources AI trusts: review sites, listicles, forums, publications. If you're not in those, you're not in the answer.
MentionBird makes that visible and fixable:
- Enter your company and URL, and it finds the buying questions that matter in your category
- It tracks daily which brands ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude name in their answers, and which sources those answers are built on
- The Answer Agent turns that into a ranked action plan: which sources to get into, what to publish or fix, ordered by impact and effort
Recently shipped: a rebuilt Answer Agent and a new YouTube Answer Agent.
For the Product Hunt community: your first 3 months of Starter is $19 with code PH19.
I'd love to hear from you: which AI answer in your category would you most want to win?
Hey Salil, congrats on the launch. I see you have an Answer Agent. When the Agent make recommendations and someone follows through on all of them, do you guarantee results?
@nikhil_moorjani Thanks! No, and anyone who guarantees AI visibility should make you suspicious, because nobody controls what the models say. What we can promise is that every recommendation comes from real data: what AI engines answer for your prompts, which brands they recommend and which sources they cite. Since we track your prompts daily, you’ll see whether the changes are moving your visibility, and you can double down on what works and drop what doesn’t.
Congrats on the launch! Curious to know how this is different from tools like Profound & scrunch etc?
@tamilselvi_ramasamy2 Thanks! Fair question. We’re in the same category as Profound and Scrunch, and the core tracking (prompts, mentions, citations, competitors) is similar. Where we differ:
We show the actual web searches the AI runs before it answers. Those are the queries you need to rank for to get cited, so the data turns straight into a content and SEO plan.
Uncapped MCP access. You can pull all your data into Claude, ChatGPT or your own agents and work with it however you like.
Built for smaller teams. Profound is geared toward enterprise budgets. MentionBird is priced so startups and lean marketing teams can afford it.
@salilpa, thanks! Will share it with my team & ask them to check it out
How do you determine the prompts that potential customers could ask from AI about the product?
@vehsakam Good question. Nobody can see what people actually type into ChatGPT, so every tool in this space is making an informed estimate. We start from real search keyword data for your category and turn the high-intent keywords into the questions buyers are likely to ask AI. You can then edit them or add your own, since you know your customers’ language best.
@salilpa sounds great, will explore. thanks!
Tried out the tool, really good onboarding. Question - does the Starter plan surface a list of competitors who ARE showing up for the prompts? Or must you add competitors yourself in order to track them? I'm thinking of local service businesses, like a plumber for example. They might not know who to compare themselves to, or they might input competitors who aren't ranking either, so their own picks wouldn't help as much as if MentionBird suggested some. Congrats on a great tool at a great time!
Like the idea behind it.
One suggestion: I would add the demo video to the landing page :)
@busmark_w_nika glad that you like our concept. and thanks for the valuable suggestion : )
