Tracked URLs are the domains and URLs DevTune monitors for appearances in AI Search responses. When an AI platform cites a URL or links to a website in its response, DevTune checks whether that URL belongs to one of your configured brands.

​
Where Tracked URLs Are Managed

Tracked URLs are now managed from Project Settings > Brands. Select a brand in the left-hand list, then use the brand detail panel to review and edit that brand’s tracked URLs.

​
What Counts as a Tracked URL

Typical sources include:
  • Marketing site
  • Documentation site
  • Blog
  • GitHub repository
  • Package registry pages
Each source is attached to a brand, which lets DevTune distinguish between:
  • Primary citations - Your brand’s URLs
  • Competitor citations - Competitor URLs
  • Other citations - URLs that are not assigned to a tracked brand

​
Choosing What to Track

For your primary brand, usually track:
  • Main product site
  • Docs
  • Blog
  • GitHub
  • Package pages
For competitor brands, usually track:
  • Their main product site
  • Their docs
  • Their package / repository footprint

​
Why Tracked URLs Matter

Tracked URLs power:
  • Presence metrics
  • Citation-share metrics
  • Competitive comparisons
  • Prompt and URL-level analysis
If an important property is missing here, DevTune cannot credit that citation to the correct brand.

​
Best Practices

  • Track the content properties that actually matter in your buying journey
  • Keep primary and competitor URL sets current
  • Review this setup whenever you launch a new docs site, move a blog, or add a new package surface

​
Troubleshooting

​
A page is being cited but not counted correctly

Check whether:
  • The relevant domain or URL is assigned to the correct brand
  • The property is missing entirely from the brand’s tracked URLs
  • The cited page lives on a new host you have not added yet

​
A competitor seems stronger than expected

Sometimes the competitor set is incomplete or one competitor’s strongest URL set is not yet tracked. Review their brand entry and expand its tracked URLs before drawing a conclusion.
