🤖 Add-on: Google AI Mode

Scrapes results from Google AI Mode - Google's dedicated AI-powered search interface on google.com, distinct from the standard AI Overviews snippets that appear in regular search results. AI Mode provides deeper, conversational answers with cited sources. Essential for Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) - track how your brand or content appears when users switch to Google's AI search experience.

⏩ Add-on: AI Overview extraction

AI Overviews are extracted automatically when they appear in search results. Enable this add-on to use a specialized proxy that increases the probability of capturing AI Overviews - note this may take slightly longer than a standard run. Best used for queries where AI Overviews are likely to appear. An extra cost applies per query when an AI Overview is successfully captured.

🧠 Add-on: Perplexity AI search

Enables you to fetch AI-generated answers using the Perplexity Sonar model. This feature is designed for cross-platform analysis, allowing you to directly compare other AI search model results against Perplexity's perspective to identify narrative differences and coverage gaps.

💬 Add-on: ChatGPT search

Enables you to fetch AI-generated answers using OpenAI's search model. This feature is designed for cross-platform analysis, allowing you to directly compare other AI search model results against ChatGPT's perspective to identify narrative differences, coverage gaps, and search engine biases.

The output includes query fan-out under queryFanOut, showing additional search queries the model generated to answer your question.

⏩ Add-on: Microsoft Copilot search

Enables you to fetch AI-generated answers using Microsoft Copilot. This feature is designed for cross-platform analysis, allowing you to directly compare other AI search model results against Microsoft Copilot's perspective to identify narrative differences, coverage gaps, and search engine biases.

You can choose from four modes to control how Microsoft Copilot structures its response: chat (conversational, quick answers), reasoning (deep analytical, multi-step logic), smart (balanced speed and reasoning), or study (detailed explanations for educational and research prompts).

⏩ Add-on: Gemini search

Fetches AI-generated answers from Google Gemini (gemini.google.com) - Google's standalone AI assistant, separate from Google Search. Use this for cross-platform comparison to identify narrative differences and coverage gaps across AI platforms.

🔗 Add-on: Link prospecting tool

Find websites that cover your topic but don't yet mention your brand - and get outreach contacts for link building.

To enable this add-on, enter your brand name in the Brand name field under the Add-on: Link prospecting tool section. For each query, the Actor collects all cited URLs from Google Search results and Google AI Overview (both automatic), plus any AI engines you have enabled separately (Google AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Microsoft Copilot, and Gemini), and checks each page for brand mentions.

Results go to a separate Link prospecting tool dataset. Each item includes:

• Which source cited the page (Google Search, Google AI Overview, Google AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Microsoft Copilot, or Gemini)
• The AI engine's response text (aiResponseText)
• Whether your brand is mentioned in the AI engine's response text (isBrandMentionedInAiResponse)
• Whether your brand is mentioned in the scraped page content (isBrandMentionedInSource)
• Business contacts for pages that do not mention your brand - up to 5 per domain, marketing and C-suite roles only

🔍 Add-on: SEO tools

SEO-focused enrichments for organic search results, for content gap analysis, competitive audits, and SERP content benchmarking.

The first feature in this add-on is website content scraping. To enable it, turn on Enable website content scraping under the Add-on: SEO tools section. Each organic result's page is scraped with the Website Content Crawler, and its content is attached to the result as websiteContent.text, plus websiteContent.markdown when the page can be converted to markdown (null otherwise).

📢 Add-on: Paid results (ads) extraction

Determines whether ads are present on the page and, if so, shows what they are. This is useful for anybody planning their own campaigns, or who want to know what competitors are showing.

👥 Add-on: Business leads enrichment

This setting allows you to add contact information for companies and the employees working there, including full name, work email address, phone number, job title, and LinkedIn profile.

Under the 'Organic results' tab, you can now find multiple business leads associated with each individual search result.

✅ Add-on: Email verification

When verifyLeadsEnrichmentEmails is enabled, each lead's email address is verified and an emailVerification object is added to the lead output. Requires business leads enrichment to be active.
