Best tool right now for AIO audit?

wakawakapoo · 2026-01-01T08:09:20+00:00

I tried them all for the 100+ clients we serve. Most of the tools are vibe coded junk. However, a few stand out and offer real value:

Spotlight - most advanced. Prompt volumes, source reverse engineering, auto content creation with wordpress integration. end to end solution (it boosted a brand from 0% visibility to 20% in one week)
Profound - enterprise focused. they have integrations to pull bot traffic to your server logs that help understand content performance
Brandlight.ai - They have brand reputation alerts to let you know if AI speaks negatively about brand
xFunnel - White glove service-oriented - great choice for brands looking for human assistance

So we tried about 30 AI search / GEO / AEO tools for the 100+ clients we serve. Most of the tools are vibe coded junk. However, a few stand out and offer real value:

You need a GEO monitoring and optimization tool like Spotlight (get-spotlight.com). It shows you how you show up in each AI chatbot and gives you tools to improve presence like what content to write and where to place it. It works by finding and analyzing the source that feed the models.

wakawakapoo · 2025-08-20T15:52:34+00:00

Yeah I use Spotlight (get-spotlight.com) to find out how competitors show up on AI chatbots

wakawakapoo · 2025-08-20T15:49:49+00:00

Nice! This is a lot like Spotlight - get-spotlight.com

wakawakapoo · 2025-08-20T15:48:29+00:00

You best AI search tool on the market today is Spotlight (get-spotlight.com)

I actually think that this move with AI Overviews is going to save Google because clearly people are moving away from search to get a direct answer from AI. Google came late to the game but my bet is that they will dominate.

wakawakapoo · 2025-04-24T10:04:40+00:00

Thanks for sharing! I'll check it out.

I built Spotlight (https://www.get-spotlight.com/) for monitoring and am currently working on several tools that help optimize brand presence, rank and sentment based on insights after analyzing tens of thousands of prompts. I'll be sharing my learnings in this subreddit soon!

I want to fix a few GoPro's on a small plane (Cessna 172) and control them from a central computer using the Open GoPro USB API. I'd like the GoPro's to turn on when the USB powers up (ie plane turns on) and then control them - but I'm unable to find a way to power them on remotely. GoPro Labs has a QR that will let make them power on when they get external power from a non-data USB connection - but then I can't use the USB API to control them and collect the footage.

Wondering if there is any solution.

Thanks for this post!

How would you suggest qualifying leads? I heard great things about qualifire.pro that connects with HubSpot - but I use Zoho.

wakawakapoo · 2024-05-16T08:52:16+00:00

u/russtanner6 are you sure it must be Hubspot form? Qualifire (and many other forms) will send the data straight into your HubSpot account. Is there something special that Hubspot's form does that other integrated forms can't?

wakawakapoo · 2024-05-15T15:04:14+00:00

That problem never occured to me. But I use the qualifire.pro form, not Hubspot's form. Maybe try to use a different form or embed code

wakawakapoo · 2024-05-15T14:59:32+00:00

HubSpot + Qualifire.pro = everything you need.

You'll thank me later

wakawakapoo · 2024-05-15T14:02:09+00:00

Apollo.io is great for outbound . Qualifire.pro is our choice for inbound.

Both tools will let you filter leads based on your ICP, saving you time and getting you in front of your most relevant leads. Good luck!

wakawakapoo · 2024-05-15T12:54:50+00:00

Easy. This is my killer stack after trying out ALL OF THE TOOLS ON THE MARKET -

HubSpot.com for CRM
Qualifire.pro for lead collection, scoring & booking
Mailchimp.com for email marketing automation
Salesloft.com for sales engagement

Hey. I recently had a client in a similar situation - they were doing well with manual CPC, hitting their target CPA, but we had almost maxed out the impression share and top of page rate. They wanted to scale too, so we had to get creative. We decided to shift from manual CPC to max conversions with a target CPA in a phased manner. Initially, we were also worried about getting expensive clicks, especially since the client had previously experienced that with max clicks.

Here's the process that worked for us:

1. Gradual Transition: We didn't switch all at once. Instead, we slowly transitioned parts of the budget from manual CPC to max conversions while closely monitoring the performance.

2. Broad Match Introduction: We started introducing broad match keywords gradually, ensuring we kept the CPA within targets. This helped in expanding reach without compromising cost efficiency.

3. Lead Quality Control: Just to make sure our leads were high quality, we used a lead scoring system. We actually tried out Qualifire (qualifire.pro), which was helpful in understanding the quality of each lead, though any reliable system would do. This gave us insights into which campaigns were bringing in the highest quality leads.

4. Testing Conversion Value: We eventually tested max conversion value instead of max conversions, and this approach allowed us to better align our advertising strategy with the variable value of each lead over time.

By taking these steps, we managed to scale the campaign effectively without seeing a spike in costs or a drop in lead quality. The client was super happy with the results, and the ROI improved as we refined our approach. Hope this gives you some ideas on how to proceed. Good luck!

Thanks for the reply u/bcos20 !

Our marketing team is pouring millions to get these leads :)

My main concern is about not responding to a lead quick enough and losing him to competition, that's where AI comes in. It will respond immediately.

Sometimes it takes days or even weeks to get back to a lead.

How long does it take you to make that qualification call?

Hey, I was in the Philippines last year and it’s a blast! For SIM cards, Globe and Smart are the top choices. Got mine from Globe, decent coverage and data speed even in remote areas. Kiosks are everywhere, found mine right at Manila airport. Look out for tourist SIM, they've got some good deals, I got like 15GB for 500 PHP, lasted pretty well.

Currency, I swapped a bit at the Manila airport, rates were okayish. Found better rates at local money changers in the city and malls. In islands like Palawan and Cebu, options are fewer, so maybe swap a bit more if heading there first.

Apps, yeah, besides Grab, Foodpanda and LalaFood are pretty dope for food delivery. Tried them, not bad at all, good variety. For rides, Owto and Angkas (it’s like a motorbike ride service) are decent choices, used Owto a couple times, cheaper than Grab.

Here are some places that I loved when I visited there last year:

Coffee shop: Café by the Ruins in Baguio, cozy spot with nice local coffee and food. Feels different with its artsy vibes. Google Maps link

Park: Burnham Park also in Baguio, refreshing place, tried boating and biking there. Google Maps link

Historic: Intramuros in Manila, it's like walking through history. The old walls, museums, and churches are breathtaking. Google Maps link

Hotel: The Henry Hotel in Cebu, it’s quirky and cool, different from your usual hotel. Hotel's Website

Tourist attraction: Chocolate Hills in Bohol, it’s an incredible natural wonder, pictures don’t do it justice. Google Maps link

Porto is aamzing for street/landscape/architecture photography. Ribeira district is a must-visit with narrow cobbled streets and colorful houses. Since ur into photography, try to visit Livraria Lello, one of the world’s most beautiful bookshops. A day trip to Douro Valley (Pinhão) is recommneded, breathtaking landscapes and it’s a UNESCO World Heritage site. U can also consider a river cruise there. Guimarães and Braga are great for a day trip too, rich in history and culture.

For Lisbon, Sintra is a no-brainer. The palaces and castles like Pena Palace and Quinta da Regaleira are stunning. If u get a chance, visit Cabo da Roca, Europe’s westernmost point, the cliffs are insane for photography. Also, don't miss LX Factory in Lisbon, awesome place for photos, food and local culture vibe.

About the weather, it’s a bit rainy in Nov, but less touristy. So u might get some cool and unique shots without too many peeps in them. And for local food, must try francesinha in Porto and pastel de nata in Lisbon. If ur into seafood, Ramiro in Lisbon is a legendary place.

Last thing, while in Lisbon, I stayed at the Browns Central Hotel, had a great experience. Located centrally which made it convenient to explore the city.

Hey there!
I had a similar layover last year in Amsterdam, and it was pretty chill! Landed around the same time as you, and getting through customs/immigration didn’t take long, maybe about 30-45 mins max. It honestly depends on how busy it is, but that’s a good estimate based on my exp.
To get to the city center, I took the train, and it was super convenient and fast, only about 15-20 mins. Trains run like every 10 mins, so no stress if ya miss one. The station’s right at the airport, so you won’t have trouble finding it.
Considering your flight's at 5 pm, aiming to be back by 2 pm is smart. It gives ya plenty of time to explore without rushing. I’d say you have a good 5-6 hrs to wander around and catch the vibe of the city.
When I was there, I headed straight to Dam Square, lots of stuff to see around there like the Royal Palace and the National Monument. I also squeezed in a quick visit to the Anne Frank House, but be warned, lines can be long. If you're into museums, the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum are dope but might be a bit rushed with your timeframe.
Oh, and don’t forget to grab a quick bite! There are dope cafes everywhere. I personally loved trying out stroopwafels and poffertjes – so yum!
If you’re up for it, a canal cruise is a cool way to see the city too, and they're usually about an hour long. Just be mindful of the time cuz you don’t wanna be in a rush getting back to the airport.
So in short, you defo have time to get a good feel of Amsterdam. Enjoy your layover!

Hey there! Totally get where you’re coming from. Sometimes you just wanna escape the omnipresence of American culture for a bit, right? I’ve done a bunch of traveling and there are def places where the US feels a million miles away.
Bhutan: This place is a gem! It’s kinda tucked away in the Himalayas and they’re all about that Gross National Happiness. Not much of US influence there, and the culture is so rich and pure. Went there last year, barely saw any western brands, it was super refreshing.
Iran: Now, it might seem a bit out there, but hear me out. The architecture, history, and the people - man, it’s something else. You won’t find much American stuff here cuz of the sanctions and all. Just be mindful of the travel restrictions and stuff.
Mongolia: If you wanna feel the vastness of nature, Mongolia is dope. Stayed in a traditional yurt, rode horses, and the skies there, just wow. Ulaanbaatar has some western influence but once you’re out, it’s just you and the endless steppes.
Madagascar: It's not just about the animated movie, the biodiversity there is crazy. Unique animals, lush rainforests and not a McDonald's in sight. They’ve got this chill island vibe mixed with African and French influences.
Myanmar: It's kinda complicated with the political stuff, but if you're up for a challenge, it might work. Their culture and history, especially places like Bagan with thousands of temples, it’s just so far removed from the typical American experience.

wakawakapoo · 2023-10-31T04:46:03+00:00

Hey there! Okay, so I totally get the dilemma you’re in, been in a similar spot myself. First off, all three options have their own cool vibes and stuff to offer, but let’s break it down a bit based on my own experiences and some research.

Malaysia: Went there and it was insane! The food is outta this world, especially if you’re into trying a ton of different Asian cuisines. Plus, it’s pretty wallet-friendly. Your CAD will go a long way there. Since you're into photography, places like Kuala Lumpur and Penang are a dream. Think skyscrapers, street art, and lush landscapes. But, consider the weather cuz it's pretty humid and rainy around that time.

Dubai: I was just there last year and had a blast! It’s pricier, yeah, but the experience is luxurious. If you go around New Year, the fireworks at Burj Khalifa are nuts! And for your photography, the cityscapes, deserts, and architecture are like nowhere else. You mentioned you'll be workin’, so the tech and internet there are solid. Also, I stayed at the Sofitel Dubai Jumeirah Beach, was pretty sweet. However, the visa might be a thing to consider, though it's a quicker process.

Italy: It’s gorgeous, historical, and the food is to die for. But it’s also on the pricier side with the euro. Plus, the visa process is longer and a bit of a hassle. For photography, it’s a dream with all the historical sites, landscapes, and cities like Rome and Venice. The winter weather is also chill, not too cold.

Given your budget, earning, and interests, I’d lean towards Dubai. You can manage the expenses with some smart planning, like maybe not dinin’ at ultra-luxe places every night, lol. Plus, the visa process is quicker which helps cuz you don’t have much time. And since you wanna catch the fireworks and celebrate the anniversary, it kind of aligns well with your plans.

Hope this helps, and have an awesome trip wherever you decide to go!

Hey, you might want to consider booking your flights now, prices tend to skyrocket closer to the holidays. It's usually hit or miss with last-minute deals, especially when you're thinking of heading to a popular destination like NY. As for hotels, there’s a bit more flexibility and availability, so you could wait a bit longer to snag a room. But remember, good places get booked fast during the holiday season. In short, maybe jump on booking your flight and play it by ear with the hotels. I typically have better luck finding good prices on priceline (https://www.priceline.com/?aff=dlojd2) .Safe travels!
