Getting Started with Surmado Signal

Surmado Signal tests how 7 AI platforms talk about your business: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Meta AI, Grok, and DeepSeek.

Surmado does not sell AI placements and cannot submit your site to ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Meta AI, Grok, or DeepSeek. No one can. We test how these systems already talk about you and give you a plan to improve.

Signal works best when you give us a persona, like “busy mom looking for a pediatrician in Denver.” We write prompts that sound like your real customers, not generic “best X near me” searches.

How Credits Work

You pay for a Signal report with credits. 1 credit = $25. Essentials uses 1 credit. Pro uses 2 credits. The $100 bundle gives you 6 credits you can use for any mix of reports.

API and Automation

Signal reports can be triggered via API and delivered via webhook. Automate monthly AI visibility checks with Zapier, Make, n8n, or custom integrations. Perfect for agencies running recurring checks for clients.
