A step-by-step guide to your first 30 days with Limy, covering setup, key features, and best practices to help you get value quickly.
This guide outlines what to focus on during your first 30 days with Limy so you can confidently assess whether you’re on track and extracting value from the platform.
Limy is designed to help you understand how AI systems perceive your brand, improve your visibility across AI-generated answers, and measure the business impact of that visibility. The first month is about building the right foundation, establishing a baseline, and turning early insights into action.
Day 1: Set the Foundation
Goal: Ensure Limy accurately reflects your market, and competitive landscape.
On your first day, review and validate the core inputs that power all analysis in Limy:
Topics: Confirm they accurately represent your product, category, and strategic positioning
Competitors: Verify that the competitive set matches who you actually compete against
Prompts: Review generated prompts to ensure they represent realistic AI search behavior in your market
Do an initial scan of:
Prompts where your brand appears
Prompts where competitors appear but you do not
Any prompts, topics, or competitors that feel irrelevant or missing
This step ensures Limy is analyzing the correct AI search landscape before you move into deeper insights.
What “on track” looks like
Topics and prompts clearly reflect your market
Competitors are accurate and relevant
The data feels recognizable and actionable
Days 2: Establish Your AI Visibility Baseline
Goal: Understand how AI systems currently perceive and position your brand.
Begin analyzing Limy’s core insight layers:
Dashboard: Review overall brand visibility, market share, and trend direction
Prompts: Identify where your brand appears, where it doesn’t, and which prompts matter most
Competitors: Understand who dominates AI-generated answers in your category
Sentiment (initial read): Get an early sense of how AI systems frame your brand
At this stage, focus on learning and orientation - not execution.
What “on track” looks like:
You can clearly describe your current AI visibility baseline
You understand where you are strong and where gaps exist
You have an initial sense of competitive positioning in AI search
Day 3: Define your Brand Kit
Goal
Ensure Limy understands your brand’s voice, positioning, and messaging so insights and recommendations are aligned with your strategy.
What to do
On Day 3, focus on setting up your Brand Kit, which provides Limy with essential context about how your brand should be represented.
Go to Settings > Brand Kit and define:
Your brand essence and positioning
Your tone of voice (e.g. authoritative, technical, approachable)
Core messaging pillars you want AI systems to associate with your brand
Dos and don’ts, including terms, claims, or narratives to avoid
Any custom rules relevant to compliance or brand guidelines
The Brand Kit does not change how AI systems see your brand directly, but it ensures that Limy’s recommendations, suggested actions, and guidance are aligned with how your brand should be communicated.
Why this matters
Without a Brand Kit, recommendations may be accurate but generic. With a Brand Kit in place, Limy can prioritize actions that reinforce your intended positioning and avoid suggestions that conflict with your brand strategy.
What “on track” looks like
Brand Kit fields are completed and reflect your current brand strategy
Recommendations feel relevant and on-brand
Your team trusts Limy’s guidance without needing heavy manual filtering
End of Week 1: Identify Gaps, Sentiment, and Opportunity Areas
Goal: Translate early data into a clear opportunity map.
By the end of Week 1, you should be able to answer:
Where do we stand versus competitors?
Which topics and prompts are we strong in?
Where are we missing from AI-generated answers?
How do AI systems currently frame our brand?
Review:
Dashboard for market position and trends
Prompts for coverage gaps
Sentiment to identify positive, neutral, or negative framing
Source Analysis to understand which sources influence AI answers
This step is about forming a clear strategic hypothesis, not execution yet.
What “on track” looks like
You can articulate your AI visibility gaps
You understand which sources and narratives shape AI answers
You have a prioritized list of topics and issues to address
Add the live URL when completed to enable tracking
This is where Limy shifts from analysis to impact.
What “on track” looks like
Recommendations are actively being implemented
Statuses are kept up to date
Completed work is being tracked
Before implementing recommendations, make sure your topics, prompts, and competitors accurately reflect your market. Clean inputs lead to more relevant insights and actions.
Week 2-3: Enable Measurement, Attribution, and Brand Context
Goal: Activate Limy’s measurement layer and ensure recommendations are aligned with your brand.
By week 2 or 3, you should complete three critical setups:
1. Install AI Traffic Monitor: Install the Limy tracking pixel via Google Tag Manager. This allows you to track users arriving on your site from AI-generated answers. AI Traffic Monitor makes AI-driven traffic visible and enables downstream attribution.
2. Set Up Attribution: Attribution allows you to connect see the ROI from the LLM leads. To set up the attribution, please contact us at [email protected]
3. Set Up Bot Monitor (CDN Integration): Connect your CDN (Cloudflare, Akamai, Fastly, etc.). This allows you to see how AI bots crawl and ingest your content
Together, AI Traffic Monitor, Attribution, and Bot Monitor give you visibility into both sides of the AI journey: ingestion and user behavior.
What “on track” looks like
AI Traffic Monitor is live
Attribution conversions are defined
Bot Monitor integration is in progress or complete
The Brand Kit ensures that recommendations and suggested actions align with your brand strategy and positioning.
Setup tip: Limy Analytics setup typically requires collaboration with your development or DevOps team to install the tracking pixel and connect the Bot Monitor via your CDN.
Weeks 3–4: Measure Lift and Validate Impact
Goal: Confirm that your actions are improving AI visibility and performance.
Monitor changes across:
Prompts: new prompts where your brand appears
Dashboard: visibility and sentiment trends
AITrafficMonitor: AI-driven user engagement
Attribution: conversions and value from AI traffic
This is where you begin to see whether execution is translating into measurable results.
What “on track” looks like
Increased visibility for priority topics
Improved positioning or sentiment
Early AI-driven traffic and conversions
