What Mentionkit tracks on GitHub

Mentionkit searches public GitHub data for the exact keyword phrases you add. It runs an initial search when you create the keyword, then checks GitHub every 12 hours.

Issues: Titles, bodies, and matching public issue content.
Pull requests: Titles, bodies, and matching public pull request content.
Discussions: Public discussion titles and bodies.
Repositories: Repository names, descriptions, and matching README text.
Topics: Public GitHub topic names and descriptions.

The search does not cover private repositories, source code, or commits. GitHub controls what public results its search APIs return, so no monitoring tool catches every reference.

Turn keyword matches into action

Keyword tracking finds brand, competitor, and buyer-intent mentions. Scores and auto-tags help you sort them. Trackers and integrations help you act fast.
