seo-profound

Profound is purpose-built for LLM brand-mention tracking. While SE Ranking samples prompts on demand, Profound continuously polls and publishes time-series so trend deltas (week-over-week, month-over-month) are first-class.

Prerequisites

• Run extensions/profound/install.sh or install.ps1.
• Profound API key.
• Before any tool call, check ~/.claude/settings.json has env.PROFOUND_API_KEY.

Routing

| Command | Purpose | |---|---| | /seo profound citations <brand> | Current citation rate per LLM + 30-day trend | | /seo profound prompts <brand> | Top prompts that surface (or fail to surface) the brand | | /seo profound competitors <brand> | Brands cited alongside brand for the same prompts | | /seo profound alerts <brand> | Spike/drop alerts vs. 7-day baseline |

Output conventions

• Cite Profound on every metric: "Profound (live, confidence 0.90)".
• Profound covers ChatGPT + Perplexity natively; for Gemini / AI

Overviews / AI Mode coverage, defer to seo-seranking.

• For Google AI Overviews citation rate, also cross-reference

seo-dataforseo AI visibility tools when available.

Cross-skill delegation

• For end-to-end AI search audit (passage citability + brand mentions + platform-specific tuning), hand back to seo-geo.
• For prompt-set design + AI Cleanup pattern detection in cited content, fall back to seo-content.
