Frequently Asked Questions

How does citation-based outreach work?
We identify the sites that AI systems like ChatGPT and Perplexity frequently cite when making recommendations. You can then reach out to these authoritative sites to build backlinks and improve your AI visibility. This targeted approach focuses on sources that actually influence AI responses, making your outreach more effective.
What is Rank Prompt Score in outreach?
Rank Prompt Score (0-100) measures how easy it is to get featured on a citation source. High scores (70+) indicate sites where you can claim profiles, submit guest posts, or contact authors directly. Low scores indicate unreachable sites like Wikipedia or Forbes. This helps you focus outreach efforts on targets that will actually convert to backlinks, not waste time on impossible targets.
Does Rank Prompt write the emails?
Yes! Our AI analyzes each target site and creates personalized outreach emails tailored to their content and audience. You can edit them before sending or use them as-is. Each email is unique and includes relevant context about why your brand would be valuable to their readers.
Can I connect my Gmail account?
Yes! You can securely connect your Gmail account via OAuth to send emails directly from Rank Prompt. This allows you to track opens, clicks, and replies automatically while maintaining your email reputation. No passwords stored. Just secure OAuth authentication.
How do I track responses?
All email opens, clicks, and replies are tracked automatically through Gmail API integration. You can see response rates for each campaign and template in real-time. Our dashboard shows open rates, click-through rates, and reply rates to help you optimize your outreach strategy.
What's the best outreach strategy?
Use our Rank Prompt Score to prioritize reachable sites, not just high Domain Authority sites you can't access. Focus on sites with RP Score 70+ that AI systems cite and where you can actually get featured (profile claims, guest posts, contributor programs). Offer genuine value like expert quotes, original data, or case studies. Start with sites already citing your competitors with high RP Scores. They're proven to influence AI and receptive to outreach.
How many emails can I send per day?
Default limit is 50 emails per day per connected Gmail account to maintain good sender reputation and avoid spam filters. You can connect multiple Gmail accounts to scale your outreach. These limits help ensure high deliverability and protect your domain reputation.
Does Rank Prompt help with email deliverability?
Yes. Connected accounts can run inbox warmup: gradual, automated send-and-engage activity that builds sender reputation before you launch real campaigns. Combined with daily send limits, unsubscribe compliance, and reply detection, your campaigns reach inboxes instead of spam folders.
Can agencies use outreach to win new clients?
Yes. Agency Plus adds Prospecting: AI search for companies by sector and location, prospect lists, engagement cadences, and branded pitch reports, all running on the same outreach engine. See the Agency Prospecting page for the full workflow.
