Does Scrunch use AI in its platform?

  • Also asked as:
  • Does Scrunch have AI features?
  • How is AI integrated into Scrunch?

Yes, Scrunch uses AI to assist with collecting responses across AI platforms, generating tailored recommendations for prompt tracking and competitive monitoring, restructuring webpages via the Agent Experience Platform, and other use cases.

Additional context: Scrunch is an AI search product designed to help customers monitor and optimize performance across third-party AI platforms. It’s not an AI platform itself (i.e., chatbot, content generation solution, etc.).

Example

For example, Scrunch uses AI in its platform in two main ways:

1. Indirectly

Scrunch collects responses from AI platforms by simulating consumer interactions with each platform, such as asking Perplexity a question and then recording the response.

2. Directly

Scrunch uses AI models for inference in order to complete certain tasks, such as evaluating text for sentiment, performing topic classification, extracting named entities, comparing the factual content of two texts, etc.

All of Scrunch's direct model usage is conducted either locally inside its own production cloud environment or via commercial model inference providers (e.g., OpenAI, Google Cloud Platform Vertex AI, Together), subject to commercial terms and configurations that prohibit any usage of interactions for training or fine-tuning.

Follow-up question: Is my data used to train external AI models?

No, Scrunch doesn’t train or fine-tune external AI models. User data stays within the Scrunch platform and isn’t shared with third-party AI companies.
