FAQ

Questions about competitor rankings.

What are AI competitor rankings?

Observed brand or product placements inside tracked AI queries, kept alongside the exact answer and its sources. Wildcard treats them as one facet of the shared prompt library so you can jump from a rank change to the underlying evidence.

Prompt tracking

Can I see rankings by query and competitor?

Yes. Wildcard lets you compare selected competitors within individual queries and review placement changes over time, with the source and answer excerpt attached.

Can I track competitor-only topics or prompts?

Yes. Dedicated prompt groups let you focus on competitor brands, products, or comparisons without polluting your main reporting. Those groups also feed Wildcard's brand sentiment view.

Brand sentiment

Does a ranking number explain why a competitor won?

The number alone does not. Wildcard keeps the answer, product context, cited sources, and relevant facts available so your team can investigate the reason behind the rank.

How does Wildcard use competitor data?

It powers the defense agent, which layers a Defense modifier onto blog, PDP, refresh, and collection recommendations when a competitor takes ground on a tracked prompt. Competitive movement becomes queued work instead of a chart.
