Connect GBD Compass to Copilot Studio

What if your Copilot agent could tell you which competitors gained AI visibility this week?

It can. GrowByData Compass now connects to Microsoft Copilot Studio through the GBD Compass MCP connector, so your agents work with search and AI visibility data directly, without manual exports.

Setup takes four steps:
✅ Create a Copilot Studio agent
✅ Add the Compass MCP server as a tool
✅ Sign in with your Compass credentials
✅ Test it with your own data

Microsoft Copilot is built for strict corporate security, so setup takes a few more administrative steps than other platforms. You sign in with your own Compass credentials and the connection stays secure.

How to Track Competitor Ads in ChatGPT: 5 Steps

There's no Auction Insights for ChatGPT. So how do you know which competitors show up in its ads? You sample a fixed prompt set and count what appears.

We did that for a month: ChatGPT served 66 sponsored placements across 1,317 searches, about 5 per 100.

Here's the 5-step version:
1. Start with paid search terms
2. Add conquest prompts (comparisons, pricing, switching, "alternatives to")
3. Fix the session: same wording, country and session type every time
4. Run daily and log every run, whether an ad appears or not
5. Report after about 4 weeks: placements per 100 runs, by competitor and by prompt group

One run proves nothing. Ad share only means something across many runs.

Need a dentist in Manhattan? What's your first move?

Most people don't stop at one Google search anymore. They check Google results and ads, Google's AI Overviews, ChatGPT, YouTube videos, and Reddit threads before they choose.

That means a business can rank well on Google and still be missing where the decision actually happens.

Prasanna Dhungel, Managing Partner at GrowByData, explains the multi-surface search path in one minute 👇

One Prompt. One Answer. No Dashboard.

What if you could just ask your search and AI visibility data a question, instead of digging through a dashboard?

That's what our GBD Compass MCP connector does. Connect it to Claude or ChatGPT, and you can ask things like "share of voice in the MAP category last month, top 10, exclude social" and get a sourced answer instantly.

In this short walkthrough, we show you exactly how to connect your GBD Compass account to Claude. Watch it here, then try it on your own data.

Find Out Where You're Losing Revenue To Competitors

Ranking well doesn't guarantee visibility anymore. AI answers, ads, Shopping listings, and page layout now decide what customers see before they reach your site, and competitors capture that demand every day.

Our Revenue Risk Report maps your brand's visibility across Google and AI platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Mode, then prioritizes fixes by actual revenue impact, not just ranking position.

Enterprise teams at brands like Nordstrom, L.L.Bean, and Chico's already use this to catch what they're missing.

When Google's Own Redirect Broke Everyone's Attribution

For six days in late August, Google routed organic results, People Also Ask links, and AI Overview citations through an internal redirect layer instead of sending users straight to the destination page. Invisible to searchers, but it broke every tool that reads destination URLs to attribute rankings, including ours.

The clearest sign: YouTube's share of voice, normally 13-15%, dropped to nearly zero during the affected window, then bounced right back once Google's fix deployed on September 2. Meanwhile, attribution to Google's own domain in AI Overviews roughly doubled, from its usual 13-16% up to 28-30%, artificially inflating Google's own numbers.

We caught it through our data validation checks and are reprocessing the affected week now. If you track share of voice and noticed anything odd between August 26 and September 2, this explains it.

A New AI Summary Just Showed Up In Google Ads

Ever noticed a new line showing up under some Google ads lately? It's called "What customers love," an AI-generated summary Google is testing inside paid search results.

We tracked it across 1.1M ad listings: just 8 appearances in August, then 1,293 in a single day by September 6. Insurance and automotive ads are seeing it the most.

Checking AI visibility shouldn't mean another dashboard login and export.

Tracking how your brand appears in Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and other AI answers usually means pulling reports from a dashboard. With GBD Compass MCP, you connect Compass to Claude once, then ask your questions directly.

For example:
• Which competitors gained AI visibility this week?
• Who is winning in Google AI Overviews for our category?
• Which of our tracked prompts lost citations?

The answers come from your own Compass data, so you can use them in reports and team updates right away.
