Overview
Beamtrace tracks how AI assistants answer questions about your business. Visibility, topic trends, and competitor context show up in Zed’s assistant while you edit site files — one prompt away from your buffer.
What you can do
These are the jobs the integration is built for.
Use Zed’s assistant with live visibility data
Zed can connect to Beamtrace over MCP so the in-editor assistant answers questions about topic trends and competitor context while you edit site files. Metrics stay one prompt away from your buffer.
Research a prompt gap before you edit
When a page underperforms in AI answers, ask Zed which competitors appear on that prompt and what angles they use. Shape your edit with that context still visible in the assistant thread.
Draft marketing copy with metric-backed angles
Have Zed propose headlines or FAQ entries for prompts where you are missing, using Beamtrace data for the competitive set. Iterate on copy in Zed without losing sight of the underlying ranks.
Set up
Connection happens inside Beamtrace: open Integrations in your dashboard, pick Zed and follow the steps there. The dashboard shows your connection details and the status of every connected client.
Requirements
- A Beamtrace workspace with at least one tracked website.
- Zed with MCP servers enabled.
