The Dashboard tab is the first page you land on inside a project, unless your team has set another dashboard as its default. Every widget on it answers one specific question. This page walks it top to bottom so you know which widget to read for which question, then shows how to build custom dashboards from the same widgets. One thing to know before you scroll: the filter bar at the top (models, prompt types, topics, monitors, and the date range) drives the Brand Visibility chart, sentiment, the source widgets, and the Heatmap. The Export button turns the current view into a shareable report. The Promptwatch project dashboard showing the filter bar, the dashboard tabs, and the Brand Visibility chart with its brand list.

The Brand Visibility chart: who is winning, and is it changing?

The main chart compares your brand against detected competitors, with a brand list beside it showing each brand’s numbers for the period. It has four views, switchable with the tabs at the top of the card, each showing your own brand’s number for that view:
  • Visibility over time (Avg): daily visibility per brand, with each brand’s average for the range in the list beside it, the view for spotting trends and sudden drops.
  • Visibility (Latest): each brand’s visibility on the most recent day, the view for a current ranking snapshot.
  • Share of Voice: each brand’s share of total mentions, so you see who owns the conversation. See Share of Voice.
  • Position: brands ordered by average position in answer.
On the two visibility views, tick Compare previous in the options menu above the brand list (the three dots) to overlay the preceding period of the same length, which turns “is 42 good?” into “42, up from 36”. Share of Voice and Position don’t overlay the previous period on the chart; the brand list beside the chart still shows the comparison. The Promptwatch Brand Visibility chart with its four view tabs and the Compare previous control ticked to overlay the prior period.

Sentiment over time: how do models talk about me?

The sentiment chart tracks your 0-100 sentiment score across the period, next to your current score. Visibility tells you whether you appear; sentiment tells you whether the appearance helps. For per-attribute detail, open Sentiment tracking.

Visibility by Country: where in the world am I visible?

The world map colors each country by your average Visibility Score there, based on the AI responses collected by monitors running in that country. Darker countries are markets where AI assistants mention your brand more prominently; lighter ones are markets where you are barely part of the answer. Beside the map, a Countries list ranks the countries with responses in the current period by score, with their response counts. The map doubles as a setup tool. A supported country you do not track yet is clickable, and clicking it opens the Create Monitor dialog with that country already filled in (named, for example, “Germany Monitor”), so you can start covering a market the moment you spot a gap. Creating a monitor this way needs full project access; view-only users can read the map but not click through. See creating a monitor.

The source widgets: what is feeding the answers?

  • Top Ranked URLs: the five most-cited pages across your responses, each with its average citation rank and citation count. Click a URL to open its detail view.
  • Top YouTube Videos and Top Reddit Posts: the videos and threads models cite most for your prompts, so you know where the community conversation lives. Detail pages: YouTube citations and Reddit citations.
  • Top Cited Domains: which domains earn citations over time, with a citation share list beside the chart. This is where you check whether your own domain is among the sources, covered in depth in Using citations.

The Heatmap: where am I weak?

The Heatmap breaks a metric across two dimensions. It opens as Brands by Models with Visibility, because averages hide model-level problems: you can lead on ChatGPT and be invisible on Perplexity while your overall score looks fine. From the chart you can switch the metric, the rows, and the columns. Reading and acting on it has its own page: Heatmap.

Custom dashboards: your own tabs

Under the title, a row of tabs starts with Dashboard, the view described above, followed by one tab per custom dashboard. Custom dashboards give each audience its own slice, such as a competitor view for strategy. The Dashboard tab always shows the same widgets in the same order. To choose widgets and their order, open its options menu (the three dots next to the title) and click Duplicate to customize. Click New dashboard at the end of the tab row. Under Start from, pick Blank or a template: Competitor comparison, Topic gaps, AI model breakdown, or Citations. Then name it, pick an icon, and choose Who can see it:
  • Team: everyone in the project sees the tab, and members with edit access can change it. View-only members can’t create team dashboards.
  • Personal: only you can open and edit it.
The Promptwatch New dashboard dialog with Blank and four templates under Start from, the Team and Personal choices, and the Set as team default switch. The Set as team default switch makes a team dashboard the one everyone lands on when they click Home, instead of the Dashboard tab. A personal dashboard can’t be the default. The options menu also has Rename, Duplicate, Make personal or Share with team, and Delete…. Making a team dashboard personal stops scheduled reports other people set up from it, and deleting a dashboard stops every scheduled report that follows it. The options menu of a Promptwatch custom dashboard, opened from the three dots next to its title, with Edit layout, Rename, Duplicate, Set as team default, Make personal and Delete.

Editing and saving a custom dashboard

Choose Edit layout from the options menu (a blank dashboard opens in it). Add widget lists the nine available widgets in three groups, Visibility, Citations and Socials. Each widget can be on a dashboard once, so a dashboard holds at most nine. Drag a widget by its handle to reorder it, use the trash icon to remove it, then click Save (it needs at least one widget) or Cancel. Saving a team dashboard asks you to confirm, because the change applies to everyone. A dashboard without widgets, like a new blank one, shows Add your first widget with an Add widget button, and below it the templates under Or start from a template. An empty Promptwatch custom dashboard with the Add widget sheet open, listing the widgets under Visibility, Citations and Socials. The filters in the filter row (Models, Types, Topics, Monitors and the date range) and each widget’s own settings, such as the chart view, Compare previous, the Heatmap’s rows and columns, or the competitors on Top cited domains, are saved with the dashboard. Until you save them they live only in the page link, so a copied link carries what you see. When the view differs from the saved one, “Unsaved changes” appears with Reset, Save as new and Update. The Dashboard tab can save filters and chart settings the same way, but not a layout. Reports follow saved dashboards: see Creating a PDF report and Scheduling and sharing reports. Agent Chat can also build and edit custom dashboards for you.

After the first read

A useful habit: scan the visibility chart for level and direction, and the Heatmap for location. When something looks off, narrow the filters (one model, one monitor, one prompt type) until you can see which responses moved, then open them from the Responses page.
