# AI visibility

> How Vantic IQ reads the workflow shape of AI use — without reading prompts, outputs, or vendor spend.

## What AI visibility is

AI-visibility surfaces are a **Starter and Growth** entitlement. They extend the same workflow-signal model used everywhere else in Vantic IQ to applications classified as AI tools — so owners can see how AI shows up in the work, not what the AI said.

Vantic reads the workflow shape of AI use — which AI tools are used, how often, in what sequence, and how they fragment handoffs. It does not read prompts, model outputs, AI interaction content, or AI vendor spend. "How your AI behaves" means how AI shows up in the workflow, not the quality or content of what the AI produces.

## What the entitlement covers

| Surface                    | What it adds                                                                                                        |
| -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| AI tools bundle category   | Treats recognised AI applications as their own workflow category (bundle-ID level), alongside other tool categories |
| AI tool fragmentation card | Surfaces AI share of active time, AI involvement in handoffs, and AI↔browser loop signals on the Billable Hour Map  |
| Category time distribution | Shows how active time splits across tool categories in the shell                                                    |

These rows are the Starter+ AI visibility entitlement scope. Detection remains bundle-ID and transition timing — the same structural signals described in [What Vantic Detects](/concepts/what-vantic-detects).

## What AI visibility does not do

* Read prompts, completions, or chat transcripts
* Score the quality of model outputs
* Track AI vendor spend or seat licences
* Execute, automate, or change anything in your tools

Vantic diagnoses and tells you where to act first. It does not execute, automate, or change anything in your tools.

## Tier note

Diagnostic-window surfaces stay limited to Friction Pulse, the conversational path, and the day-14 Operating Assessment. AI-visibility surfaces unlock on **Starter** and **Growth** with continuous diagnosis. See [Pricing & plans](/get-started/pricing).
