AEO Goal can alert you when important changes happen to your AI visibility - so you don’t need to check the dashboard manually.
Types of notifications
| Type | When it fires |
|---|---|
| Citation alert | Your brand gains or loses a citation on an AI platform |
| Competitor alert | A tracked competitor changes AI visibility significantly |
| Share of Model change | Your SoM moves by a configurable threshold (e.g., ±5%) |
| Keyword ranking change | A tracked keyword position changes by a configurable threshold |
| Content published | A blog post is published to a connected CMS |
| Credit low | AI answer-check credits fall below a set threshold |
Configuring notification preferences
- Go to Settings → Notifications.
- For each notification type, toggle Email and/or In-app on or off.
- For threshold-based alerts (SoM, rankings), set the minimum change percentage.
- Click Save preferences.
Additional email recipients
Add up to 3 additional email recipients for any notification type - useful for sending alerts to clients or stakeholders without giving them account access.
- Go to Settings → Notifications.
- Click Add recipient under the notification type.
- Enter the email address.
In-app notification center
The bell icon in the top navigation shows all recent in-app notifications. Click any notification to navigate directly to the affected data.
Unsubscribing
You can unsubscribe from any email notification type in Settings → Notifications or via the Unsubscribe link in any notification email.
Transactional emails (password reset, billing receipts, security alerts) cannot be unsubscribed from.
