4 use cases

  • Track your brand's AI answer visibility against rivals

    Run one self-hosted pass that shows how often AI engines mention your brand versus competitors.

    View prompt
    Using the limelit-co/open repository, download the binary, start `limelit serve`, and complete the setup wizard for the domain <target-domain> with competitors <competitor-domains>. Press Run and report the visibility and share of voice per engine. Verify that each figure shows its answer count n.
  • Let Claude answer AI visibility questions from your data

    Connect Claude to a local Limelit instance so it can read your visibility data in plain language.

    View prompt
    In the limelit-co/open repository, register the MCP server with `claude mcp add limelit -s user -- sh -c 'cd ~/limelit && exec ./limelit mcp'`. Then ask it for the visibility of <brand-name> against <competitor-name> across all engines. Expected output is a plain-language summary with the sample size behind each figure. Verify that the first tool call reports the instance state.
  • Find which sites AI engines cite for your category

    See which pages engines trust, classified as your own, competitor, social, informational or other.

    View prompt
    Using limelit-co/open, run one pass for the brand <target-brand> in the category <category>. Export the citation data and list the top 10 cited sites with their source type. Verify that each classification matches the stored citation rows.
  • Export all visibility data as JSON or CSV

    Pull the whole instance into one JSON file or a folder of CSVs for your own analysis or board material.

    View prompt
    In the limelit-co/open repository, run `limelit export` for the instance in ~/limelit and write the output to <output-path>. Expected output is a JSON document or CSV directory covering all answers. Verify that the row count for <engine-name> matches the dashboard count for that engine.
