What your buyers ask AI

Example prompts. You choose the ones MentionSight tracks.

Research
- Is an EV practical if I can’t charge at home?
- Which car brands hold their value best?

Where the answers come from

Types of sources AI answers can draw on in this category.

Reviews and road tests: Expert reviews, comparisons and long-term tests.
Reliability and safety ratings: Survey results, crash tests and the articles that cover them.
Owner forums and communities: Real-world fuel economy, range and repair experiences.
Automotive news: Launches, recalls and price changes.
Your model, pricing and warranty pages: Specs, trims and terms, when they are current and easy to quote.

What AI can get wrong

Judged by an old model year
A facelift or new generation can still be described by the problems of the previous one.
Outdated prices, range or specs
Trims and pricing change during a model’s life, and answers can lag behind.
Recalls dominating sentiment
Recall coverage can outweigh everything else in how answers describe a brand.
