AEO Spotlight Introduces Real-Time Alerts for AI Visibility Changes
The new alert engine notifies teams when brand visibility drops, competitors appear in AI answers, or credit balances run low, through email, Slack or webhook.
Published July 1, 2026 · Adam Rock
AEO Spotlight introduced an alert engine that watches AI visibility and notifies teams when something changes. The alerts cover visibility drops, competitor appearances, trend changes, and low credit balances.
What You Can Alert On
Teams can set up rules for a visibility threshold drop, a new competitor appearing in AI answers, a change in visibility trend, or a low credit balance. Each rule has a severity level and can be delivered to email, Slack, or a webhook endpoint.
When a rule fires, the platform records a trigger event with the details at the time of the alert. Teams can acknowledge triggers and keep a history of what fired and when.
Why Alerts Matter
AI answer behavior shifts frequently. A brand can disappear from answers after an upstream change on any platform. Alerts turn monitoring into a proactive system, so a visibility drop is caught the same day instead of on the next manual check.
