MCPs for tracking AI search visibility
AI visibility is new enough that each tool measures something different. Dance checks Google AI Overviews and ChatGPT for one business. Ahrefs’ Brand Radar reports at brand and entity level. HubSpot tracks prompts and share of voice across several assistants for Marketing Hub Professional and Enterprise customers.

How to choose
Check which assistants are measured
Coverage varies by tool, from two AI surfaces to four. Pick the one that measures where your customers actually ask.
Separate measurement from action
Knowing you are missing from AI answers is half the job. Look for a tool that also explains which page or claim to change.
