How do I add or edit the topics and prompts I track?
Prompts are the engine of GetMint — they're the questions we ask the AI models, and they generate all your data. Choosing them well is the most important setup step.
Where to do it: open your project and go to the prompts section. You can add, edit, or remove prompts at any time; changes apply on your next refresh.
Start from your objectives. Each prompt should map to a topic your buyers actually ask about — either an SEO keyword you track or a real customer-journey question.
What makes a good prompt:
- Mirrors how a real customer types into ChatGPT (e.g. "best CRM for small marketing teams").
- Stays brand-neutral — don't name yourself; the whole point is to appear unprompted.
- Specific, not broad — "best software" surfaces no brand and wastes a prompt.
- Spread across your objectives, not all piled on one.
Common mistakes to avoid:
- Near-duplicates ("best CRM for startups" vs "top CRM for startups").
- Too broad to surface any specific brand.
- Forgetting to leave room — your prompt budget is shared across visibility, alignment, and sentiment.
Mind your budget. Starter includes 50 prompts total across all tracking. Spend them on the questions that matter most to your business; prune duplicates if you hit the ceiling.
Quick test: type a prompt into ChatGPT first. Could a brand like yours realistically appear? If yes, it's a good prompt to track.
