Documentation

A guide to the core concepts behind the AI Monitor module in CitationLab AI Marketing Manager — how onboarding works, the funnel phases we track, and how to structure your prompts.

Onboarding

Getting set up takes four steps.

  1. 1

    Create a project

    Add your brand and the domains you want to monitor.

  2. 2

    Build a business profile

    Describe what you do so the AI understands your context.

  3. 3

    Generate personas

    Define the buyers whose questions you want to appear in.

  4. 4

    Generate prompts

    Auto-create prompts across the funnel, then refine them.

Funnel phases

We track three stages of the customer journey.

  • TOFU

    Top of funnel

    Early-stage awareness — broad, exploratory questions without brand context.

  • MOFU

    Middle of funnel

    Solution evaluation and comparison queries as buyers weigh options.

  • BOFU

    Bottom of funnel

    Purchase-ready, brand-specific searches close to a decision.

Prompt scopes

Each prompt is classified by how specific it is.

  • 01

    General

    Broad industry questions without specific context or brand mention.

  • 02

    Contextual

    Service-related queries with context but without your brand name.

  • 03

    Brand

    Explicit searches that name your brand directly.

Best-practice distribution

Aim for roughly 30% General, 40% Contextual and 30% Brand prompts, covering all funnel stages and connected to your personas. Review the ongoing tracking and act on the monthly recommendations.
