The dashboard
What you see in Lens
Retainer clients of Hiveminds use the dashboard to track whether AI answers mention them, to see what holds that back, and to record what changed after an intervention. Below is what it contains, with our own measurement of hiveminds.nl as an example for each part.
Overview with the KPIs
The start page sums up your measurement in four tiles: your score, your mention coverage on the fixed question set, the AI crawls of your site, and whether you are among the sources the models cite. A chart shows the trend across your measurements, so you see at a glance where you stand and which way it is moving.

Pinned prompts with per-platform status
The question set is fixed, so every measurement and re-measurement covers the same questions. Per question you see the status on ChatGPT, Claude, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity: do they mention you, and if so, how. Fixed questions make the difference between two measurements fairly comparable.

Sources behind the answers
With every measurement, Lens keeps the sources the models cite. So you see not only whether you are mentioned, but where the answer comes from and which pages shape the conversation.

Technicals with an explanation per check
The technicals go through your site for what stands in the way of AI visibility, with an explanation per check of what was measured and why it counts. A separate access check shows each AI agent with its role (search/indexing, user-triggered retrieval or training) and its status: so you see not just that a bot may visit, but what that means for your visibility.
Access check per agent
Google-Extended is steered only as a preference in robots.txt (training for Google); we do not show it as an observed crawl.

Crawl data of the AI bots
Lens shows which AI bots visit your site and how often. That crawl data is the other side of the measurement: you see not only what the models answer, but whether they actively fetch your site.
crawls total
AI crawls
From 39.4 to 79.4 AI crawls per day since the SSR fix (12 May). As measured 19 August 2026.

Lab: your own questions
In the Lab you test your own questions on your own domain across the same four platforms. Every account has a monthly quota of fresh measurements for this; earlier results are kept for you to look back on.

Fix loop timeline
The Fix loop records every intervention and then re-measures on exactly the same questions. The timeline lays out the difference: the delta in mentions per platform and in the crawls of the AI bots. So what changed after an intervention, and how stable that stays, stands in black and white.
