AI visibility intelligence
Find out who AI recommends instead of you.
When a customer asks ChatGPT who to hire in your trade, it answers with somebody. We record who — and whether your site is cited at all.
Built for decisions, not vanity scores.
The shift
Ten blue links became three names.
When someone asks an assistant who to hire, they get a shortlist and a reason for each. There is no page two, and no way to see whether you were on it.
Absent, not ranked badly
In a list of ten results, being eighth still earns clicks. In a three-name answer, fourth place does not exist.
No Search Console for this
No engine publishes what it said about you, to whom, or how often. That absence is why measuring it needs a tool at all.

Monitoring
Watch the answer change as the work lands.
A monitored subject re-asks the same questions on a schedule and keeps every answer. Score and share-of-voice trends show whether the work is moving anything - and the action plan reorders itself as the evidence changes.
Trends, not snapshots
One reading cannot tell you whether your work did anything. A schedule of identical questions can.
An action plan that updates
Priorities are re-derived from the latest stored answers, so the top of the list is always the next most useful thing to do.
What you get
The free check is real work, not a teaser
Both tiers run the same measurement and keep the same evidence. The difference is how much of the resulting work plan comes back with it.
Free check
Your visibility score across four AI platforms, the sources they cite instead of you, and your three highest-impact fixes - each backed by the stored answer that produced it.
Full report
Every prioritised fix, the complete ranked source list with unproven-UK sources withheld and counted, and the full answer text behind every number - as a report you can share.
Who it's for
Two ways people use this
Same measurement, different job.
A business that wants the work
Find out whether AI names you for your trade in your area, and which sources you would have to appear on to change that. See the methodology.
An agency answering for clients
Recurring checks per client, reports that carry the evidence behind every number, and an outreach list you can defend in a meeting. For agencies.
Measured, not asserted
Three numbers from our own corpus of AI answers about UK businesses. Each states where it came from — if we cannot source a figure, it does not go on this page. Read the Q3 report.
- 1,770 / 1,770Gemini citations that hide the publisher behind a redirectOur corpus, 31 August 2026, via signalfound:citation-country-coverage. A tool reading the URL naively sees zero Gemini citations, not fewer.
- 142Cited sources we withhold until we can prove they serve the UKOur corpus, 31 August 2026. They are counted on screen rather than dropped silently.
- 17 → 50How far one business’s score moved in six days with no work doneOne London firm, 28 readings, August 2026. Which is why we will not sell a single check as proof of progress.
Where this sits
Categories, not competitors — the tools in each column are good at what they were built for.
| What you get | Classic rank trackers | Global AI visibility tools | AiRanker |
|---|---|---|---|
| What is measured | Position in a list of links | Presence across many engines and regions | Mentions and citations, recorded separately, with the full answer behind each |
| What is kept | Rank history | Scores and trends | The full answer text and every source it cited |
| When the tool is unsure | — | Reports a score anyway | Shows a dash, and says the check was unscoreable |
| Geographic targeting | Country-level | Many countries, no per-source verification | UK only, with each cited publisher checked before it is offered as a target |
| Outreach list | Backlink gaps | Citation counts | Ranked sources, with unproven ones withheld and counted |
Our guarantee
We guarantee the evidence, not the outcome
Nobody controls what an AI engine will answer tomorrow, and any supplier who guarantees you a place in one is making a promise about a system they do not own. Here is what we will stand behind instead.
Every number is traceable
Each figure links back to the stored answer that produced it. You can read the text yourself.
Unmeasurable is labelled
A check we could not score shows an em dash, never a confident zero we did not observe.
Withheld is counted
Sources we cannot prove serve the UK are held back and reported as a number, not quietly removed.
Guides
What we know about how AI picks who to recommend
Written from measurement. All guides.
How to get cited by Google AI Overviews in the UK
AI Overviews sit above the results you already compete in. Getting cited is mostly classic local SEO, aimed at a passage rather than a page.
How to get recommended by Gemini in the UK
Gemini cites almost nothing directly — every source we have recorded from it is a Google grounding redirect. Here is what that means for you.
How to get recommended by Perplexity in the UK
Perplexity shows its sources and cites the widest set of any engine we measure. That makes it the most readable — and the easiest to misread.
Questions people ask first
The rest are on the FAQ page.
What does the free check actually do?
It asks four AI answer engines — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity — three commercial questions about your trade in your area, records what each one answered, and keeps the sources each answer cited. You see whether you were mentioned, whether your site was cited, and every source the engines trusted to build their answers. It takes about a minute and needs no card.
Is it really free? What is the catch?
It is free and there is no card. It costs us real money in vendor fees per run, so there is a daily cap on free checks and a limit per website. We hope you buy the full report or the monitoring, but nothing is withheld from the free result to force that.
Why UK only?
Because a check we cannot do properly is worse than no check. Answers vary by country, our question phrasing is written for UK search behaviour, and we verify whether cited sources actually serve the UK. Rather than return a plausible-looking result for a country we have not validated, we refuse non-UK locations at submission.
How is this different from Ahrefs, Semrush or a rank tracker?
Those measure where you appear in a list of links. This measures whether a business is named in a generated answer, which is a different question with a different winner set — an AI answer names three or four businesses, and there is no page two. Most of what makes a page rank still helps; the measurement is what changed.
Managed optimisation
Finding the gap is free.
Closing it is the work.
Your check records what AI answers and which sources it trusts. What comes back with it is a prioritised list of the specific gaps behind that result — the sources to pursue, and the on-site work behind them.
