A complete walkthrough of Signal, from your first sign-in to daily visibility tracking.

This guide walks you through Signal, from creating your account to monitoring your brand's AI visibility week after week.

Before You Begin

You need a Signal account with an active plan. If you don't have one yet, follow the Quick Start.

The Signal Workflow

Here's the typical journey for a new customer:

  1. Create an account — Sign up, choose a plan, and invite your team
  2. Set up your brand — Enter your website and choose the AI platforms to track
  3. Run the prompt wizard — Let Signal suggest competitors and prompts from your website
  4. Read your dashboard — See visibility, share of voice, sentiment, and position at a glance
  5. Compare audits — Run an audit on demand and see what changed since the last one
  6. Track visibility — See how each prompt performs and how mentions are decided
  7. Read sentiment — Find out how AI answers describe you
  8. Analyze citations — See which sources AI engines cite for your prompts
  9. Choose platforms — Decide which AI engines each brand is tracked on
  10. Manage settings — Edit brands, competitors, prompts, your team, and API keys
  11. Manage billing — Change plans, buy add-ons, and keep an eye on usage

Signal runs your prompts every day in the background. Over time, your dashboard fills with trend data showing how your AI visibility changes.
