No, you don't need to start one yourself. Your Visibility Audit runs automatically on your plan's monthly schedule, and the next run shows whether AI models recognize and cite your changes. Models can react to updates much faster than traditional search engines, sometimes showing small, near-immediate shifts and often producing significant changes within 1 to 3 months.
Can I see the impact sooner?
Yes. Start with your Pulse Audit. It runs weekly on Starter and daily on Pro, and it has its own smaller Conversations, Visibility Audit, and Citations pages, so you can watch for early signs that your changes are working without running your whole Project early. See What is a Pulse Audit?
To get your next full Visibility Audit sooner, change your Project's run day to tomorrow in Settings. See How often does my Visibility Audit run, and can I change the schedule?
If you need full results today, the support and success team can run your whole Project for you at the usual cost. Ask for a human in chat or email support@gumshoe.ai.
Why keep running if I haven't changed anything?
Even if you have not changed anything, AI models and competitors may have. Regular runs tell you whether your visibility is stable, improving, or slipping.
What should I do next?
When your next run finishes, compare it with the last one. I ran my Visibility Audit, now what? shows where to start.
