AI Visibility Monitoring for Property-Ops Software Vendors
Short answer
- $5–8k a month to hold a position after a Sprint earns it. The position defended, decaying pages refreshed, the source set held, and one original data asset a quarter.
- A movement report every edition. Your row and your competitors' rows, prompt by prompt, generated from the Index files and annotated by a person.
- Positions decay because answers are rebuilt every time. Sources get rewritten, competitors ship pages, and models change between editions.
- Thirty days' notice to end. Billed monthly in advance, net-15. Exclusivity in your category is available at the top of the band.
The AI Visibility Retainer is $5–8k a month. It keeps a vendor on the shortlist after a Sprint puts them there.
That means the position defended, decaying pages refreshed, the source set held, one original data asset a quarter, and a movement report every month generated from the AI Shortlist Index. It is the measurement the share of answer guide describes, run for you, with the work attached.
Why does a position decay?
Answers are rebuilt every time a prompt is asked. The sources they draw on change. A listicle gets rewritten, a review platform reorders a category, a competitor ships an integrations page, or a better forum thread overtakes the old one.
The models change too. The Index records the model that answered on every capture where the app discloses it, which it does from October 2026, because the model changes between editions.
A vendor that did the work once and stopped is competing against vendors that are still doing it. The Index shows that as movement, and the case studies page explains why movement is the only result we report.
What does the Retainer do each month?
Defend the position
We read your row and every competitor’s row in the new edition, prompt by prompt, and act on what moved. If a source you entered during the Sprint drops out of the top 10, we find the one that replaced it.
If a competitor appears beside you in a segment prompt where you used to be alone, you hear about it in that month’s report. The report shows the source it rode in on.
Refresh decaying pages
The vs, alternatives and for-segment pages carry facts that go stale: pricing model, PMS integrations, portfolio fit, product names. Each page gets its facts re-verified against your current product on a schedule, and its structured data updated.
A page that says you integrate with Buildium when you no longer do is worse than no page.
Keep winning the source set
New listings, new directory entries and new editor pitches as the Source Map turns over. The same placements-attempted rule applies as in the Sprint: we attempt, we report, we do not guarantee a third party’s decision.
One original data asset per quarter
Something only you can publish from your own product data, anonymized and aggregated: work-order cycle times by portfolio size, credential turnover at move-out, resident package uptake by PMS. Trade publications and forum threads quote numbers they cannot get anywhere else.
A vendor with such a number becomes a source in its own category. We design the asset, you pull the data, and we write and place it.
A monthly movement report
Generated from the Index files the day the edition publishes, then annotated. It shows your row, the rows beside you, and what changed, with the prompt-level detail that the public row leaves out.
Nothing in it is edited to look better than the public row, because the public row is the same data.
What are the price and terms?
$5k a month covers one category and its core segments.
At $8k, the top of the band, the Retainer adds categories or segments and more page refresh. It also adds the option of category exclusivity: we work for no other vendor in your Index category while the Retainer runs.
Billed monthly in advance, net-15, thirty days’ notice to end. The agreement lists the quarterly data asset and, if exclusivity applies, the exact subcategory list it covers.
Where does it sit?
The order is Audit, Sprint, Retainer. The Audit writes the baseline, the Sprint does the work, and the Retainer holds the result.
The practice hub shows all three with prices and the firewall that governs them. To ask which one you need, book a 20-minute call or use the Audit form below.
Questions about AI Visibility Monitoring for Property-Ops Software Vendors
Can I buy the Retainer without a Sprint?
Usually not. The Retainer defends a position; if the current edition shows you unnamed across the prompts that matter, there is nothing to defend yet and the Sprint is the right product. A vendor already named consistently can start on the Retainer after an Audit.
What is in the monthly movement report?
Your row and your competitors' rows from the new edition: mention rate per engine, shortlist rank, position score, consistency across runs, engine spread, source dependency, and movement against the prior edition. It adds prompt-level detail that the public row does not show, and a person annotates it.
What is the difference between $5k and $8k?
The number of categories and segments covered, the amount of page refresh work, and whether the exclusivity option is included. Exclusivity sits at the top of the band.
How do I cancel?
Thirty days' notice, in writing. Billing is monthly in advance, net-15. Late payment pauses work rather than cancelling the agreement.
Which engines does the report track?
Every engine the Index measures in that edition. Today that is ChatGPT, captured from its app, with the model that answered recorded from October 2026, and Claude, through the Anthropic API, from October 2026. Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews join the report from the edition they first run in.
