About
What this is, and what it is not
Mentionry is an AI marketing platform that publishes its own limits. This page is the list of them, generated from the same file the product runs on.
Mentionry is the AI marketing platform built for the agentic era. See what your customers ask ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews, deploy your AI Marketer to act on it, and measure the results. It runs 20 live opportunity channels and 0 more are not built. Outreach is sent from the user's own mailbox, after approval.
Why it exists
The rise of AI search created an impossible amount of work for marketers. An answer engine names a business when it has read a page that names it, so visibility in AI answers is a question about which pages exist and get cited. The first thing this platform does is record what the models actually say and which pages they read to say it; the second is give you an AI Marketer that identifies the work worth doing, drafts it, and pings you for approval.
Reaching those pages then splits into two jobs that behave like different markets. Mining asks who links to your competitors and not to you. Earning asks who is already looking for somebody like you: a journalist with a deadline, a podcast with an empty slot next month, a conference taking submissions, an award taking entries.
Most tools do one of those well and are quiet about the other. The PR platforms own the earn side and have nothing to say about competitor backlinks. The SEO suites own the mine side and treat media requests as somebody else's category. Buying both is expensive and neither writes the thing you actually have to send.
That gap is the reason this exists. Whether it is a large enough reason is a question the product has to answer rather than the marketing.
What is live
Read from src/lib/mentionry/capabilities.ts at render time, so this table cannot drift from the code.
| Channel | Engine | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Qualify a domain | measure | One API call. Decides whether this site has a prospect pool worth mining before you quote them. |
| Competitor link gap | mine | Qualifies the niche first, then mines competitor backlinks and classifies which are actually replicable. |
| Prospects | mine | Everything the classifier kept, with the specific reason each page would add a link. Paid placements are excluded by design. |
| Resource pages and directories | mine | Curated link pages that take submissions, found by searching the niche directly. Not limited to pages a competitor already reached, which is the ceiling built into any gap report. |
| Journalist requests | earn | Open call-outs from SourceBottle and Help a B2B Writer, matched against your brief and then judged one at a time. HARO and Source of Sources email their queries to subscribed sources, so those are not pulled in automatically: paste one in and it is judged and drafted like any other. |
| Find journalists | earn | Reporters who already write about the subject, by name, taken from the byline on recent coverage. Nobody asked for a source, which is what makes it the warmest cold pitch there is. |
| Unlinked mentions | earn | Pages that name the brand without linking to it. The easiest ask in link building, because the writer already did the hard part. A page we could not open is reported as unchecked rather than as unlinked. |
| Competitor coverage watch | earn | Journalists who just covered a competitor and may cover this market again. Affiliate and promo pages are filtered out, because most of what ranks for a brand name is written to earn a referral rather than to inform. |
| Podcasts | earn | Shows that book guests, with the booking address the feed publishes and proof the show still airs. Show-notes links convert far above cold pitching, because a booking is a conversation rather than a favour. |
| Speaking opportunities | earn | Open calls for papers, with the close date wherever the organiser publishes one. An accepted talk earns a speaker page that keeps working long after the event. |
| Industry awards | earn | Awards taking entries, with pay-to-win mills filtered out twice. The link is the finalists page, so a shortlist is worth nearly as much as a win. |
| Bylined articles | create | Publications that print contributor guidelines. The strongest link on this list, because a bylined piece carries an author bio. Paid guest post sellers are excluded: buying a link is a spam policy violation and the risk lands on your site. |
| AI answer visibility | measure | Whether Google's AI answer names you for buying questions, and which pages it read to decide. Reported as pages you can pitch rather than as a score, because a score is a measurement and a cited page is a task. This channel reads Google and nothing else; the other engines are what Track answer engines records. |
| Track answer engines | measure | The questions your buyers ask, run on a schedule and written down: who the answer names, which pages it cited, and what the model searched for on the way. Three samples per reading, because one is a coin flip. It starts recording the day you add a prompt and has nothing to say about the day before. |
| Draft outreach | earn | Three drafts, not one: an email to a person, the contents of somebody else's form, and a reply once they answer. The email goes out from your own connected mailbox, so the reply lands in a thread you own and the sending reputation you build is yours. It sends the pitch; it never places the link. |
| Verify and monitor links | measure | Every opening that was pitched is checked back: did the link appear, on which page, with what anchor, and is it still there. A link that is removed or turned nofollow later shows up as a change rather than staying on the scoreboard. This is how the product can tell you what it actually earned instead of how many emails it sent. |
| Registries and datasets | create | Package registries, marketplaces, dataset repositories and software directories that will list you, matched against what your own pages say you ship: an install command, an extension, a dataset, a hosted product. Every match names the phrase that qualified it. This is the route for a site with no prospect pool worth mining, which is a large share of them. |
| Broken link building | mine | Resource pages in your subject that link out to something that no longer exists, with a page of yours to offer instead. Only a 404, a 410 or a domain that stopped resolving counts as dead: anything blocked, slow or merely erroring is reported as unchecked, because emailing an editor about a link that works is the fastest way to burn the relationship. |
| Relationship inventory | earn | Vendors, partners, customers and associations that already have a reason to link. You name them, because nothing can look up which software you pay for or which trade body you joined. We check which already link to you, and find the page on their site where a link would go. The highest conversion of any channel, because every row is a company with a standing reason to say yes. |
| Anchor text audit | measure | Reads every distinct anchor pointing at your domain and sorts it into brand, bare URL, keyword phrase and link-seller spam, weighted by referring domain. Over-optimised anchors are the fastest way to make a profile look bought. |
What is not built

And two things that are manual rather than automatic
HARO, Source of Sources and Connectively. All three work with Mentionry and none of them is automatic. HARO is running and emails its queries to subscribed sources for free. Source of Sources is Peter Shankman's own follow-up to HARO, also free, up to three emails a day, and there you reply straight to the journalist rather than through a platform. Connectively is a separate platform you submit through. Mentionry does not read your mailbox and does not log into anybody's platform, so it does not pull those queries in on its own. You paste one in, and it judges it and writes the pitch like any other opening. The send stays a manual step. A competitor that ingests these automatically has a real advantage on that one channel and it is worth saying so.
Visibility in assistants other than Google. The AI answer visibility channel checks Google AI Overviews and reports which pages the answer read. It does not cover ChatGPT or Perplexity, and it will not claim to until those connectors ship.
How it is built
Nine of the connectors are keyless. A user connects no accounts and supplies no API keys to get opportunities. The only optional connection is their own Gmail, and that exists so a finished draft lands in their drafts folder instead of on a clipboard.
There is no database of opportunities. Drafts live in the browser and reply state is read live from the user's own mailbox. That is a deliberate constraint rather than a stage of development: an outreach tool holding a copy of your mailbox is a liability neither party needs.
Every opportunity is judged one at a time by a model that is allowed to reject it on the grounds that this business cannot honestly answer the question being asked. On the measured run that produced the numbers on the homepage, it read 110 openings, judged 40, and kept 14.
What it refuses
It does not buy links or find you somebody who will sell one, because paying for a link that passes ranking signals violates Google's link spam policy and the penalty lands on the buyer's domain rather than the seller's. Hand the drafting a reply that asks for money in exchange for a link and it declines and explains why.
It does not report a page as unlinked when it failed to open it. Those are reported as unchecked. The difference is small until you pitch somebody who already linked to you.
Pricing
Not published yet. There is no announced price, no plan list, and no trial to sign up for on this site. When there is, it will be on a page of its own with the limits stated next to the number rather than in a footnote.
