How it works

How AI visibility tracking works

  1. Enter a website address

    Your company’s or a client’s. Based on it, we suggest competitors and the questions customers ask AI chats when they look for a business like it. You can edit them freely.

  2. We collect AI answers

    Every day, on every plan, we save in full what AI chats answer to customer questions in your category. We measure in your customers’ country and language: choose from 17 countries and 11 languages.

  3. Get the result and an action list

    Presence in answers, share of voice against competitors, sources and trend in one dashboard, plus a list of actions. The result goes straight into a report for your board or your client.

What you get

From the first answer to the fix

See whether AI recommends your brand

Every collected answer in full: check what a customer read about your brand and how often its name appears. Each mention is also classified by how the AI framed it: recommended with conviction, mentioned without endorsement or advised against.

Compare with competitors

A list of brands AI names in your category, with each brand's share and the sources AI cites, so you know where to appear.

Improve and show the effect

A ranked list of actions, most important first, including ones beyond your own website. After a change, the trend shows whether it worked, and you have it in numbers for your board or your client.

Why AI visibility matters now

An AI answer often replaces the click

38% of US consumers have already used generative AI tools like ChatGPT to shop online (Capital One Shopping Research, 2026), and AI Overviews now appear on 48% of Google searches (Advanced Web Ranking, March 2026). That answer often replaces the click: you won’t see it in your analytics as AI traffic, only as traffic that never arrived. Brands present in those answers reach the customer before a website is even chosen, and that spot is still up for grabs while few are competing for it.

AI visibility is how often AI chats such as ChatGPT, Gemini, AI Overviews, AI Mode and Perplexity mention and recommend your brand when people ask buying questions. It is measured like a Google position: through regular measurements using the same set of questions, separately for each AI chat.
SEO gets you ranked in Google’s blue links. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) gets you cited and recommended inside AI-generated answers. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) is a narrower part of GEO, focused on being the single direct answer. CiteLyzer tracks your visibility across all of them - you don’t have to pick an acronym.
Yes. Ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Google AI “what’s the best [your category]” and you get a short list of named brands, often with links. If your competitors are on that list and you’re not, that demand quietly goes to them.
Yes. AI visibility complements SEO; it does not replace it. Google is not going away, but a growing share of decisions now happens inside AI chats that classic SEO tools cannot see.
No. CiteLyzer does not change AI answers and is not an agency: it measures how often AI names your brand and points out what to change on your site. You or your agency implement the changes, and the trend shows the effect. You pay for measurement and guidance, not hours.
It doesn’t have to. Standard and Pro have no brand limit: every brand sits on one account and in one view, with a pool of questions to share between them. When you need more than 150 questions, we set up a custom plan: write to contact@citelyzer.com and tell us how many brands you manage.
Search Console shows how you appear in Google. CiteLyzer shows how you appear in AI answers - ChatGPT, Gemini, AI Overviews, AI Mode and Perplexity - which Search Console doesn’t track at all. Same idea, brand-new surface.
That is exactly why we never draw conclusions from a single answer. The same question asked twice can return two different answers, and a chat sometimes tailors its answer to the person asking. We measure the answer for a market and a language, not what one particular person will see. CiteLyzer asks a fixed set of questions in several AI chats every day and counts the share of answers that mention the brand. A single answer is not a measurement in any tool, ours included. Only the trend across hundreds of answers shows whether a brand is gaining or losing ground.
No. CiteLyzer measures what AI chats answer: whether they name your brand, in what position, who they recommend instead and which pages they cite. We do not count AI bot visits to your site or visits from chats. You will see those visits in your own analytics, such as Google Analytics. The two complement each other: analytics shows only clicks, while measuring answers also shows the recommendations nobody clicked on.
The same day. Pick a plan, add your domain and prompts, and the first measurement starts as soon as you save your settings. Cancel anytime.
