I built TraceAIO, an open-source tool that prompts LLMs on your behalf and tells you whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini mention your brand — and which competitors and sources show up instead.

Yeah, this category smells a bit like a grift, same as early SEO. And I think over time it will become just SEO again, and become about good content. The tool just helps you monitor over time.

It queries the browser products through real browser sessions, not APIs, runs on Docker, with an MCP server so you can query your own data through an LLM.

No business model, Apache 2.0, self hosted. If you use a residential proxy instead of running the browser locally I get a few cents via referral, not even enough to cover my token costs.

Long on-and-off project, finally happy to show it. Feedback welcome.
