Build the prompt set you'll track across AI engines, then export it as a ready-to-log CSV or JSON. Every AI visibility measurement is only as good as the questions behind it, so this is the highest-leverage hour in your whole tracking setup — get the questions right and the rest is just logging.
Quick answer
Add the real, high-intent questions your customers ask AI, tag each by intent tier, topic, and engine, and export a structured CSV or JSON. Aim for 15–30 questions weighted toward decisions, then freeze the list so your readings stay comparable.

Add the real questions your customers ask AI, tag each one, then export the set as CSV (pre-structured with logging columns) or JSON. Everything stays in your browser.
What makes a good tracking prompt
A good prompt is a real, conversational question a customer would actually ask an AI on the way to buying — specific and intent-rich. "Best CRM for a 10-person agency" beats "CRM." Weight your set toward decision-stage questions, where being cited has the most commercial value, and keep it fixed once it's good, because comparability over time is the whole point of tracking. This is the Alignment pillar applied to measurement.
Where to go next
For the full method — where to source questions, how to prioritize by intent, and how to maintain the set — read how to build an AI prompt set. Once your set is ready, run it across the engines and log who gets cited with how to measure your AI visibility, and pick a tracker in the best AI visibility tools. The prompt set tells you which questions to win; The AEO Canon is how you win them.

Frequently asked questions
- What is an AI prompt set?
- A prompt set is the fixed list of real questions you run across AI engines to measure whether they cite you. It's the foundation of any AI visibility program, because every measurement is only as good as the questions behind it. This tool helps you build one — add your questions, tag each by intent and engine, and export a structured CSV or JSON to track over time.
- How do I export my prompt set?
- Build your list in the tool, then click Export CSV or Export JSON. The CSV comes pre-structured with the logging columns that matter — prompt, intent tier, topic, engine, plus blank columns for date checked, brand mentioned, site cited, competitors, and notes — so you can start tracking immediately or import it into a visibility tool. Everything runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
- How many prompts should be in a tracking set?
- Start with 15–30 real, high-intent questions. That's enough to cover your most important buying-stage queries without runaway cost, since tools price by prompts times engines. Weight the set toward decision-stage questions, keep it fixed so readings stay comparable, and expand it deliberately as you learn which questions matter.
- CSV or JSON — which format should I use?
- Use CSV if you'll track in a spreadsheet or import into a visibility tracker — most accept CSV uploads and the template includes the logging columns. Use JSON if you're feeding the set into a script or API. Both export the same prompts and tags; pick the one your workflow consumes.
