Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## ChatGPT Brand Visibility Tracker Track how often **ChatGPT mentions your brand vs competitors** for target search-intent queries — AI SEO / LLM SEO rank monitoring. For: brand managers, SEO/AI marketing teams, AI search optimization, SaaS competitive intel. ### How it works 1. Provide your brand, competitor brands, and a list of prompts users might ask ChatGPT. 2. Actor queries OpenAI for each prompt. 3. Parses the response to find your brand + competitor mentions, ranks them, and reports. ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `brand` | String (required) | Your brand name. | | `competitors` | Array | Competitor brands to track ranks for. | | `prompts` | Array (required) | Search-intent prompts (1+). | | `model` | String | OpenAI model. Default `gpt-4o-mini` (cheap). | | `temperature` | Number | 0 = deterministic, 1 = creative. Default 0. | | `openaiApiKey` | String (required) | Bring your own OpenAI API key. | ### Output ```json { "brand": "Apify", "prompt": "What are the best web scraping platforms?", "model": "gpt-4o-mini", "response": "Here are the leading web scraping platforms:\n1. Bright Data...\n2. Apify...\n3. ScraperAPI...", "mentioned": true, "rank": 2, "mentionCount": 3, "firstPosition": 142, "competitors": { "Bright Data": { "mentioned": true, "rank": 1, "count": 2 }, "Scrapfly": { "mentioned": false, "rank": null, "count": 0 }, "Oxylabs": { "mentioned": false, "rank": null, "count": 0 } }, "tokensUsed": 312, "scrapedAt": "2026-05-31T12:00:00.000Z" } ```` ### Pricing (Apify) $0.02 per prompt tracked. Plus your OpenAI API costs (typically $0.001-0.01 per prompt depending on model). ### Limitations - ChatGPT responses are non-deterministic. Use temperature=0 for stable rankings. - Brand match is case-insensitive substring. Names with common words may have false positives. - Rank is detected only if the brand appears in a numbered list. Otherwise rank=null but mentioned=true. ### Tips - Run weekly to build a time series. - Use 5-20 prompts per run for a good visibility snapshot. - Test different model versions (gpt-4o vs gpt-4o-mini) — results differ. If this actor helped you, please leave a review on the Apify Store. # Actor input Schema ## `brand` (type: `string`): Your brand or product name. Case-insensitive matching in ChatGPT responses. ## `competitors` (type: `array`): Competitor brand names to track ranks for. ## `prompts` (type: `array`): Search-intent prompts. ChatGPT will answer each, then we check brand mentions + rank. ## `model` (type: `string`): Default gpt-4o-mini (cheap). Other options: gpt-4o, gpt-4-turbo, gpt-3.5-turbo. ## `temperature` (type: `number`): 0 = deterministic. 1 = creative. ## `openaiApiKey` (type: `string`): Your OpenAI API key. Required. Get one at platform.openai.com/api-keys. ## Actor input object example ```json { "brand": "Apify", "competitors": [ "Bright Data", "Scrapfly", "Oxylabs", "ScraperAPI" ], "prompts": [ "What are the best web scraping platforms?", "Recommend a no-code web scraper for developers", "Top alternatives to Bright Data for proxy and scraping" ], "model": "gpt-4o-mini", "temperature": 0 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): Each row: brand, prompt, model, response, mentioned, rank, mentionCount, firstPosition, competitors{brandName:{mentioned,rank,count}}, tokensUsed. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
