every week i had the same ritual. one tab for ads. one for reddit threads. one for AI recommendations. one for SEO tools. two more for community mentions. and at the end of that whole thing, no synthesis. just a pile of signals pointing in different directions. i couldn't tell if we were invisible to buyers or just invisible to me. we tried building internal docs to bridge the gaps. those got stale in two weeks. tried assigning one person to track everything. they became a professional tab switcher. the problem wasn't the data.

the problem was the data never added up to anything actionable. we ended up building revamio because of this, not as the plan, but because the manual version was genuinely unsustainable. still not a clean story. still figuring out the right framing for people who haven't felt the gap yet.

how does your current setup handle this and how long does it actually take each week?

every week started the same way. check how competitors were showing up in ChatGPT answers. run searches in Perplexity. scroll through relevant subreddits. look for community mentions. pull some ad patterns. check SEO movement. two hours later, a lot of tabs and very little synthesis. the individual signals weren't useless. a competitor showed up in AI answers we weren't in. a community thread was describing the exact problem we solved. an ad angle was repeating, which usually means it's working. but none of it connected. the tabs were closed and the insight was gone.

we built revamio because the manual version of this had an obvious ceiling. and because the spreadsheet version had already failed three times. still early. still learning. but the monday ritual is considerably shorter now. what would you want to know first about how your brand appears to buyers who have never heard of you?

most analytics tools are built around the same signals. search rankings. paid metrics. social reach. all real. all measurable. what they skip is the layer between buyer awareness and first brand contact.

the conversations happening in communities. the AI recommendations generated when someone searches a category. the influencer voices actually moving decisions rather than just collecting impressions. that layer exists. it shapes buying decisions constantly. almost nothing measures it well.

we have been building in this space for about 18 weeks now and the pattern we keep hitting is consistent: the data is there, it is just fragmented. subreddits, AI answers, ad creative patterns, community threads, all separate research tasks. we pulled it into one place, from one URL. that is revamio.

the frustrating part is not the building. it is explaining why someone should care before they have personally felt the gap. what is the market intelligence task that costs you the most time right now without giving you a clear answer at the end?

the problem we were solving was brand visibility in AI tools. specifically, whether a brand shows up when buyers use ChatGPT or Gemini or Perplexity to research a category. sounds simple. turned out to be genuinely hard to measure.

the reason it took 6 months was not the technical side. it was that nobody had language for this problem yet. we'd describe it to founders and marketers and get blank stares. not because they didn't care, but because they hadn't felt the consequence of being invisible in AI recommendations. the people who got it immediately were the ones

who had already searched for their own brand in an AI tool and gotten nothing. that experience changes your perspective fast. most teams still find out they have this problem after the buyer has already moved on. not a great way to discover a gap. what is the competitive intelligence gap costing you the most?

I am so bored of living alone in here (from jan). Want to go out and party tonight if anyone who’s going already i am open to make spontaneous decisions ! You can first know a lil about me real quick. I am 21 y/o. In Gurgaon.

the average B2B buyer now uses ChatGPT or Gemini to research vendors before ever visiting a website. most companies have no idea whether they appear in those answers, what context they appear in, or which competitors are being recommended instead.

tracking it consistently turned out to be the hard part. single snapshots are noise. the methodology that actually works: consistent query sets built from your own site's ICP, run across four AI models weekly, read as direction over time not point-in-time scores.

we ended up building that into something broader because the AI visibility problem connects to everything else: what competitors are doing that's working, what communities of buyers are saying about your category, which voices actually influence your ICP, what ad angles are trending in your space, where your SEO health has gaps.

all of it from entering your URL. no setup. under 70 seconds.

what's the market intelligence task that costs you the most time right now without giving you a clear answer at the end?

i have seen many people on reddit saying GEO is just SEO, how many of you agree with it and why ?

recently i have been posting among twitter and linkedin about a b2b saas product, it has been consistent and almost a month till now. the same followers [collogues] from day one, i have posting on the global high engaging time [twitter -2-3 posts per day, linkedin 3-4 posts per week] following all the possible strategies for the virality [eg: using huge companies listing in our product, tagging, replying in there comment section], havent been commenting much but just posting.
what do you think i can do ? what are the best practices that are worth trying? is it bcoz i haven't been commenting in others relevant posts, or i am expecting results too early ?

hey people, i am just so curious to know how agencies run, as you all list multiple clients how you maintain everything? like do you dedicate a person to one platform with multiple clients, a person for a client, or the whole agency only covers on platform.
totally new but i just wanted to know as these days there are literally alot of agencies that started [especially by gen-z] seeing atleast 2-3 reels. i want to know the workflow and how much do you guys use AI in it.

Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the order of operations in B2B SaaS growth.
Not necessarily “what channel works best,” but when each channel works best.
What’s becoming interesting is how much buyer discovery is shifting toward AI tools, communities, and recommendation-driven discovery before traditional search even happens.
Because of that, the growth sequence that’s making the most sense to me right now looks something like:

1. AI visibility
   Are AI engines even surfacing your brand?
2. Competitor intelligence
   Which companies consistently appear, and in what context?
3. Community
   Build familiarity and credibility early.
4. Outreach
   Works better when your name already feels familiar.
5. Paid
   Amplify validated messaging.
6. SEO
   Compound around what buyers + AI systems already respond to.

Not saying this is universal, but it’s been changing how I think about growth planning lately.
Especially because AI visibility seems to influence trust much earlier in the journey than most teams expected.

Been building internal workflows around this and eventually turned parts of it into a product called Revamio to track AI visibility + competitor positioning across LLMs/community discussions.
Curious how others here are approaching this shift:
Are you adapting your growth stack around AI discovery yet, or still treating it separately from SEO/community?

We recently listed our product in PH and on that day we got 40 followers (network/reddit) got few upvotes, that’s it. It never changed and today we had a downfall while we were already there (dropped to 28 followers) it’s really confusing on how can I optimise that !
The product isn’t some vibe coded one, it is a whole growth intelligence in one dashboard. It was built by experts for two months, after a lot of iteration we have finally launched the product but there is no progress. I want to know what can i do to eventually get much more from PH.
Any suggestions/interests would be appreciated.

Recently we have listed our product in product hunt, got few followers (most of them were our network) few upvotes and then that’s it, nothing happened next day. It’s been 3-4 days, the followers upvotes everything is the same as day one. The product isn’t a routine vibe coded product if we think of quality or value.
The product helps in positioning the company in market from GEO, competitors analysis, content, ad tracker to SEO.
So i want you to suggest some other directories (going organic so free directories pls) that can actually give us the output along with the tips to be followed in PH!!
Also open to help you in PH if have listed and your support on our product would be appreciated !!

We have found that a lot of marketers (myself) recently been posting about handling multiple things at one time in a company, like:
-GEO
-Competitors activities
-Content
-AD tracking (competitors winning ads etc)
-influencer reach
-SEO gaps

Guess what. we have found that gap and have been building the product to not just monitor all of these but show you the actionable plan.

How’s does it benefit you ? You can allot multiple company in this and do it for each without any mess.

The help we need is we launched the product in product hunt today !! Would appreciate your support to upvote, try the product (free to start. Just your URL. Few minutes) and also let us know if we can help you with anything.

Feedback would be appreciated.

Hi folks,

Quick question - when someone asks ChatGPT “best tools for X” in your category… do you know if your brand shows up?
We realized most teams have zero visibility into this, even though more buyers are starting their research inside AI tools instead of Google.
So we built Revamio to track and analyze:
-GEO
-Competitors analysis
-Community signals
-Ad tracker
-SEO

We just went live on Product Hunt today, but honestly, I’m here for signal, not just traction. Also will help you if your product is listed too.

Would really appreciate:
your first impression of the idea.
whether this is something you’d actually use.
If you’re interested, I can share the link in comments.
And if you have questions, I’m here to answer everything.

Since I work in a startup i had the responsibility to manage GEO, SEO, competitors analysis, ad tracking, content intelligence many more for the company.
Just curious to know what would you do if you were in my shoe?
