# AI share of voice for social media tools, channels excluded

**Use case:** 

Measure how often ChatGPT and Perplexity recommend a social media scheduling tool, with Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn and the other channels removed from the competitor list so only real rivals are counted. The excludeNames field works the same way in any category.

## Input

```json
{
  "brandName": "Planable",
  "domain": "planable.io",
  "category": "social media scheduling tool",
  "platforms": [
    "chatgpt",
    "perplexity"
  ],
  "prompts": [],
  "maxPrompts": 12,
  "includeAnswers": false,
  "excludeNames": [
    "Instagram",
    "TikTok",
    "Pinterest",
    "LinkedIn",
    "Facebook",
    "YouTube",
    "Threads",
    "Bluesky"
  ],
  "checkWebsiteReadiness": true,
  "readinessPages": 25
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "type": {
    "label": "Type"
  },
  "assistant": {
    "label": "Assistant"
  },
  "prompt": {
    "label": "Question asked"
  },
  "brandMentioned": {
    "label": "Named"
  },
  "siteCited": {
    "label": "Site cited"
  },
  "competitorsNamed": {
    "label": "Named instead"

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [AI Brand Visibility Audit: ChatGPT & Perplexity Mention Rate](https://apify.com/agentbuilt/ai-visibility-audit.md) with a specific input configuration.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/agentbuilt/ai-visibility-audit.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
