Getting started with Asheard

From signup to your first rank check and AI visibility run in about ten minutes.

1 · Create your workspace

When you sign up, Asheard creates a workspace for you. A workspace holds your projects, your team, and your credit balance. Next, start your 7-day free trial with AI visibility tracking, plus 150 credits to spend on checks. You add a payment method to start, but nothing is charged until the trial ends, and you can cancel before then on the Billing page. Rank tracking can be added from the Billing page whenever you like.

2 · Add a project and a domain

A project is a client or a brand; a domain is a website you track inside it. Create your first project, add the domain, and pick the country and language you care about. Everything else — keywords, AI prompts, alerts — hangs off the project.

3 · Add keywords (or let Asheard find them)

Add the keywords you already know you care about, choosing device (desktop or mobile) and locale per keyword. Shortly after you add a domain, the free Discovered keywords report also fills in: keywords your domain already ranks for, sorted by search volume, each one a single click away from being tracked.

4 · Set up AI visibility

Open the AI visibility tab in your project and create your brand profile: brand name, aliases (common misspellings and short forms), competitors, and the prompts you want to test — the real questions your customers ask AI assistants. Then pick which engines to query: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Grok, Google AI Overviews, Bing Copilot, DeepSeek and Mistral. The calculator shows you exactly how many AI answers each run will use.

5 · Run your first checks

Run a rank check and an AI visibility check from the project page. Results land in minutes. From there, the Insights page pulls both modules together (your AI Visibility Index and the rank×AI quadrant), and Gaps and Fixes lists what to do next.

Tip: schedule recurring runs early. Trends are where the value is — a single snapshot tells you where you are, a series tells you where you're heading.
