Getting started with Variask

Updated

In short

Sign up, add your website and brand name, confirm your market, competitors and the questions buyers ask, pick the AI engines to track, and run your first check. Your first report shows where AI names you, where it names rivals instead, and what to fix first.

Step by step

  1. 1Create your account and start the trial.
  2. 2Enter your website. Variask reads it to understand what you offer.
  3. 3Confirm your brand name and any other names people use, such as short names or product names.
  4. 4Choose where your customers are. This decides which competitors and questions are suggested.
  5. 5Review the suggested competitors and remove or add any.
  6. 6Review the suggested buyer questions and add your own.
  7. 7Choose the AI engines to track and run your first check.

What to look at first

  • Visibility: the share of answers that name your brand.
  • Competitors: who AI names when it does not name you.
  • Sources: the sites AI cites for your questions.
  • Accuracy: anything AI says about you that is wrong.

Good habits from day one

  • Keep most questions unbranded, the way a new buyer would ask.
  • Turn on automatic weekly checks so trends build without effort.
  • Pick one or two fixes each week rather than trying to do everything at once.
