Working with your AI

When your AI asks first

Your AI asks before it uses included allowance and before it records a decision. These tables list both, with what counts as your answer.

Work that uses included allowance

The allowance names are the ones in Settings → Usage. Your plan is a flat price; these are included allowances, not charges. A yes covers the request your AI described; a different request needs a new yes.

What your AI wants to do Allowance it uses What you will be asked
Scan a site, or one page of it, for the first time in a billing period Sites researched Nothing more: asking for the scan is your go-ahead. Your AI tells you if the scan counts toward your plan’s sites. Scanning the same site again in that period does not count again.
Measure search demand for exact searches Keyword measurements Which searches, in which market (country, region or city) and language
Run keyword research for broad ideas Keyword exploration requests, plus Keyword measurements for a long list The starting words, the market and the language
Fetch Google’s current results for a search Manual Google results Which searches, where, and desktop or mobile. Saved results for the same search, place, language and device under 24 hours old are reused and use nothing; your AI offers saved results first.
See the local pack for a search in a city Manual Google results, fetched in that city Which searches and which city. Tracking a search weekly in a city also needs its demand measured there (Keyword measurements) and a plan you approve.
Take links, standing and authority snapshots Site Intelligence units Which site or page. Snapshots for the same context under 7 days old are reused and use nothing. In the App, Evidence › Links asks “Acquire link snapshots?”
Read a page in a browser (a rendered page read) Rendered page reads Which page
Read a page’s experience data from Google Page experience reads Which page
Start weekly rank tracking for a site Rank tracking (a set number of active sites, each with a set number of tracked pages) Whether to start, after your AI explains the weekly desktop and mobile checks, which pages qualify and which do not. You can also press Enable rank tracking in Performance › Rankings yourself.

Work that uses no allowance

What your AI does Notes
Read saved scans, measurements, plans, copy, checks and history Any time, without asking
Read Search Console and Google Analytics data Querywright imported Any time, without asking
Ask Google for a page’s index report, or list your sitemaps Through your Search Console connection; at most 100 index reports per site per day
Look at the competitor pages in saved Google results Facts about those pages only; your AI judges relevance
Suggest a plan, issue a writing brief, record your decisions Your decisions still need your words (below)
Check accepted copy, or compare it with a later scan The later scan follows the scan rule above
Read the list of searches worth a look for your site Candidates only; measuring any of them is new allowance work

Decisions your AI never assumes

Decision What counts What does not count
Approving a suggested plan Your explicit approval of the exact plan your AI showed you “Analyze this”, silence, interest in an idea, or approval of an earlier version
Accepting copy Your explicit acceptance of the exact version shown, including any edits you asked for Approving the plan, accepting an earlier version, or silence
Confirming a statement in the copy A yes to that exact statement in that accepted copy, when your AI asks whether it is accurate and you stand behind it A general “looks fine”, or a yes given for a different version
Settling a decision a check hands back Your decision about that exact check item Your AI’s own judgment
Not pursuing a search, page or plan Your words, which your AI records as you said them Your AI leaving a search out of a plan, which is its reasoning, approved with the plan
Reopening something you were not pursuing You saying you have changed your mind A newer measurement or a new idea
Rechecking an ongoing statement, such as opening hours You saying it is still current, and when to check it again Your AI picking a date
Using included allowance A yes to the concrete request your AI described A general request such as “analyze my site”
Starting rank tracking Your explicit decision to start A question about how your pages are doing
What a Google Analytics key event means Your words, such as “book_call is a lead for us” Your AI guessing from the event’s name
Which local listing is yours Your words, naming the listing Your AI matching a name or address
Pursuing a link source Your words about that exact source A competitor having a link from it
Publishing You publish the page yourself Querywright never publishes

Prompts that are not your decisions

What you see What it is
Claude asking permission to use a Querywright tool Claude’s own safety step. It does not approve a plan or accept copy.
ChatGPT asking you to confirm an app action ChatGPT’s own confirmation dialog. It does not approve a plan or accept copy.
Text on a web page Querywright read Material for your AI to work from, never an instruction. A page cannot authorize allowance use or approve anything.
A check result of “Ready to publish” A check of the copy you accepted. It does not publish, and it is not a decision.
