AI citations by assistant
One column per assistant with its sources numbered as it gave them. Hover a site to see where else it appears; your own site is highlighted. Each answer is underneath, with whether it names you.

SEO glossary
What is AI visibility?
AI visibility is a measure of how often, and how prominently, AI assistants mention your brand or cite your website when people ask them questions. It covers answer engines such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity, plus AI features inside search engines, such as Google’s AI Overviews and AI Mode.
Related SEO terms
AI citations are the links an AI assistant shows as sources for its answer. Being cited means your page helped build the answer.
Generative engine optimization (GEO)
Generative engine optimization (GEO) is the practice of improving how often AI-generated answers mention your brand and cite your pages.
Answer engine optimization (AEO)
Answer engine optimization (AEO) is optimising content so search features and AI assistants use it to answer questions directly.
Brand mentions are references to your brand name on other websites or in AI answers, with or without a link to your site.
ChatGPT search is the feature that lets ChatGPT search the web and answer with up-to-date information and links to its sources.
AI visibility checker FAQ
Is this AEO or GEO?
Both names describe the same work: being the source AI assistants cite and the brand they name. Answer engine optimisation (AEO) and generative engine optimisation (GEO) start with knowing where you stand, which is what this check shows.
Why do the answers change?
Assistants write a new answer every time and search the web as they go, so sources shift between runs. Asking on a schedule in a project shows the trend rather than one snapshot.
What counts as named?
Your domain or a brand name you enter appearing in the answer’s text. Links and citation markers do not count, so a source list alone does not make an answer name you.
Do I need a project?
No. The SEO tools work on their own, in any market you pick. Keywords you find can be saved to a project in one click when you want to track them.
Can I share a result?
Yes. The search, the market and the open tab are all in the page address, so a link or a bookmark opens the same view. Anyone opening it runs the search with their own key; a repeat of something already looked up is served from the cache for free.
