Buyers' questions in your category turn on 6 things. Your site says 3 of them; 1 of those only away from your homepage. 1 is half-said. 2 are missing.
What the engines weigh, and what your site says
Every scan finds the reasons your buyers' questions turn on, such as price, setup or support. Then it reads your own site and checks each reason against the lines you publish.
- In your message: your site says it, in words the engines can use.
- In other words: your site says it, in different words.
- Said elsewhere: your site says it, but not on your homepage.
- Half-said: your site comes close and stops short.
- Missing: your site does not say it anywhere.
- In the answers: on each reason, whether the engines name you, rarely name you or leave you out, and whether any answer warns against you.
From how often you come up to why
A mention count says how often the engines name you. Narrative monitoring adds the reasons they pick on, and which of those your site leaves unsaid.
| Counting mentions | TALEBEACONNarrative monitoring | |
|---|---|---|
| What it gives | How often each engine names you | The reasons behind each pick, and how you stand on each |
| What it hides | Why the engines picked a rival over you | Reasons none of your buyers' questions raise |
| What you can act on | A number to push up | The line to add to your homepage, or the claim to say plainly |
| From one scan to the next | The count goes up or down | Each reason checked again, so you see which ones your site now says |
How it works
- 01
We find what the questions turn on
The reasons the engines name when buyers compare and choose, taken from the answers themselves.
- 02
We read your site
Your homepage first, then the other pages we can read, at the time of each scan.
- 03
We match each reason to your lines
Three separate AI models judge every match, and we keep the middle answer.
- 04
The gaps join your plan
A reason your site misses or half-says becomes a change in your plan, such as a line to put on your homepage.
Questions people ask
Is this the same as tracking mentions?
No, mentions count how often you come up. Narrative monitoring is about why, the reasons the engines weigh, and whether your site gives them the words.
Which pages do you read?
Your homepage first, then other pages of your site. The view lists how many pages were read, and on what date.
Does it work if my site is not in English?
Yes, it reads your site in its own language and shows an English version next to each line.
How often is it updated?
On every scan, as often as every three days, with the same questions each time.
