Prompts Overview

This article explains how AI prompts work in Limy, how to analyze prompt-level answers, and how to identify opportunities where your brand should appear.

Prompts represent the questions users ask AI systems when researching products, companies, or topics in your market. In AI-driven discovery, users ask natural-language questions and receive a single synthesized answer - making whether and how your brand appears critical to visibility.

The Prompts section helps you understand which questions exist in your category, how AI systems answer them, and where your brand appears or is missing. This forms the foundation for visibility analysis and optimization in Limy.

How Limy Creates Prompts

Prompts are generated based on your topics, your industry, your ICP, competitive landscape, and known AI search behavior. Limy continuously maps the AI search landscape and expands each prompt into related fan-out queries, mirroring how AI systems explore multiple variations before generating an answer. Prompts are re-run every 24 hours to capture changes over time.

What Prompts Show

Each prompt provides insight into:

  • The latest AI-generated answer

  • Brand and competitor mentions

  • Brand sentiment

  • Sources influencing the response

  • Provider distribution

This helps you understand not just if your brand appears, but how it appears in AI answers.
