Step 1: Account Creation and Onboarding #
When creating your account, provide:
- Company name
- Website URL
The tool will automatically scan your website to:
- Suggest Key Brand Attributes
- Suggest potential topics
- Generate a company description
- Propose baseline prompts
Waiting time: A few seconds to a few minutes for the automatic analysis.
Step 2: Configure Your Brand and Key Brand Attributes #
After the scan, the tool displays:
- A long description (max. 1,000 characters)
- A short description
- Suggested Key Brand Attributes
Option 1: Approve the suggestions if they match your strategy
Option 2: Replace them with your own attributes defined earlier in the guide
⚠️ Important: These attributes are only used for the initial configuration of your account. They do not directly influence data analysis.
💡 Tip: Take the time to define them properly, but don’t overthink it.
Step 3: Define Your Topics #
The tool automatically suggests several topics based on your website analysis. You can accept these suggestions or define your own.
Key question: Do I need multiple topics?
✅ YES, if:
- Competitive universes are truly distinct
- Each offer has a different positioning
- You have the budget (the number of topics affects cost — with the Growth plan, you get 5 topics, enough to run proper tests)
❌ NO, if:
- Offers are too similar
- Competitors are identical across offers
Step 4: Add Competitors #
Competitors are essential for comparative analysis and positioning.
How to proceed:
- Go to the “Competitors” section of your topic
- Add all your competitors
Step 5: Choose Your Prompts #
Use the GetMint Prompt Generator #
Use GetMint’s built-in prompt generator during setup.
The suggestion engine proposes prompts based on:
- Your website
- Industry context
- The information you provide (keywords, personas, context)
Add Prompts Manually or Upload via CSV #
Option 1: Manual entry
- Delete all suggested prompts
- Click “Add”
- Paste your first prompt
- Repeat for each prompt
Option 2: File import (recommended)
- Prepare an Excel/Google Sheets file with your prompts
- Copy the column (values only, no formatting)
- In GetMint, click “Import”
- Paste your prompts
- Check the total count (e.g., 27 prompts)
- Click “Replace”
Step 6: Launch Tracking #
Final validation #
- Click “Review”
- Check your full configuration: Topics, Key Brand Attributes, Competitors, Prompts (number and content)
- Click “Create”
What happens next? #
GetMint will:
- ✅ Set up your brand
- ✅ Configure your topic
- ✅ Run all your prompts across several LLMs
Processing time: 15–20 minutes
Notification: You’ll receive an email once the analysis is complete.
Step 7: Explore the Interface and First Data #
Visibility Section – Key Metrics #
Global Visibility Score #
A comparative chart showing your position vs competitors.
What you see:
- Your visibility score
- Each competitor’s score
- Relative ranking
Total Number of Responses #
Example: 108 responses
- Your prompts were run across 4 different LLMs
- This number increases with each refresh (depending on your plan)
Typical evolution:
- Week 1: 108 responses
- Week 2: 216 responses
- Month 3: 1,000+ responses
The more responses you have, the more robust your data becomes.
Key concept: LLMs generate different answers to the same question from one day to the next. Recurring refresh is essential to capture this variability (weekly by default, daily in advanced plans).
Mentions #
Definition: A mention occurs when an LLM mentions or cites your brand in its response (with or without a link).
How to view them:
- Click “See All Brands”
- Compare the number of mentions across brands
- The percentage represents your overall share of voice
Citations (Domains and URLs) #
Definition: A citation = a hyperlink to a website included in the LLM’s response.
Two levels of analysis:
A. By domain
- Aggregated view of citations per website
- Helps identify the most frequently cited domains overall
B. By specific URL
- Detailed view of the most-cited individual pages
- Helps identify top-performing content
