reading the answer…cycle 34 · weekly, N=1

Illustrative. Rival A–D and Yourbrand are placeholders — we do not publish invented quotes about real companies.

All six on every paid plan. No engine sold separately, none held back for Enterprise.

[01] THE MEASUREMENT

Being mentioned once is luck. Staying is a position.

Ask an AI the same question eight weeks running and you get eight slightly different answers. A tool that checks once and reports a number is measuring the weather. We run every prompt on a fixed weekly cycle and classify each brand by how often it actually survives — because the difference between appearing 8 times in 10 and 3 times in 10 is the difference between a position and a coin flip.

Rival D11%

Rival C27%

You46%

Rival B63%

Rival A84%

Your last 8 cyclescarousel → emerging

Named in 46% of cycles, this brand is emerging — climbing, but not yet a position. A tool that only counted mentions would have called week 7 a breakthrough and week 3 a crisis. Neither was either.

86.5%

of Google AI Mode prompts keep a stable core of 1–5 cited domains that persist week after week (SISTRIX). Those are positions, and they are winnable.

58–62%

of Google searches now end without a click. The answer is on the page, and either your name is in it or it isn't.

38%

of pages ranking #1 on Google get cited by AI. Ranking first stopped being the same thing as showing up.

Volatility cuts both ways, and it is why we do not alert on every movement. A brand that drops from 46% to 41% has almost certainly not done anything wrong. We tell normal drift from a real change, and only send you the second kind.

[02] WHAT YOU SEE

Every score traces back to the answer it came from.

No black-box index, no proprietary score nobody can audit. We store the actual answer each engine gave, mark where your brand appears in it, and the number you see is derived from those stored answers. If you disagree with a score, you can go read the thing it was computed from.

The answer we stored

Perplexity · cycle 34 · 14 Sep

For applicant tracking compatibility, most people land on Rival A or Rival B. Yourbrand is worth a look if you want the score broken down by section rather than a single number…

position 3rdsentiment positivecited 2 sources

Per-prompt, per-engine

Not one blended number. Perplexity naming you and Gemini ignoring you are two different problems with two different fixes.

Competitors, side by side

Share of voice with an interval attached, because weekly N=1 sampling is not a precision instrument and we will not pretend otherwise.

Blindspots

The prompts where your rivals get named and you do not. This is the list that turns into work.

Sentiment and position

Being named third in a hedged sentence is not the same as being the recommendation.

[03] THE AUDIT

31 checks per page. Every failure becomes a named job.

Knowing you are invisible is not useful on its own. The audit crawls your pages and runs the same 31 deterministic checks on each — no model, no judgement, no score that moves when you re-run it. Everything that fails comes out the other side as a task with a URL, an impact and an effort estimate, so the output is a list of jobs rather than a list of opinions.

Site score

Median across 24 pages, 31 checks each. Deterministic — the same HTML scores the same every time, so a change in the number means a change on the page.

What the 31 checks cover

Crawlability

robots.txt, llms.txt, canonical, indexability, sitemap presence

Answerability

Does the page answer its own headline in the first paragraph, in question-shaped sections

Structured data

FAQPage, Article, Product, Organization — present, valid, and matching the visible page

Performance

Render-blocking weight, image sizing, time to first byte

Entity

Whether the page states who you are in terms a model can attach to a name

Freshness

Machine-readable dates, and whether they are honest

Content

Depth, lists and tables, heading hierarchy, internal links

Each check carries a weight that sums to 100, and the weights do not move between runs. Two audits a month apart are comparable, which is the whole point of a score.

Backlinks, meta and duplicates too

Referring domains come from a full backlink index rather than an estimate, and the duplicate titles, thin pages, orphans and redirect chains come from comparing all your pages against each other — findings no single-page checker can produce. They are reported beside the score and deliberately kept out of it.

[04] THE CONTENT LOOP

From a blindspot to a draft in your CMS, without leaving the tool.

This is the part most tools stop short of. A blindspot becomes a brief, the brief opens in an editor with the checks running live beside your draft, and from the Agency plan the finished piece goes into your CMS as a draft for you to approve — never published live. Then the next cycle tells you whether it moved anything — including when it didn't.

Does an ATS actually reject your resume?

Mostly, no. An applicant tracking system parses your CV and ranks it — it does not usually bin it outright. What sinks a resume is a layout the parser cannot read…

Google search volume — not AI prompt volume, which nobody can measure.

The red list is the point. A rewrite that gains four checks and quietly breaks one is a trade, and you should make it deliberately before you publish rather than discover it three weeks later. We show the losses at the same size as the wins.

[05] SOURCES & TRAFFIC

Where the answers come from, and what reaches your site.

An AI answer is assembled from sources, and most of them are not your website. Knowing that a third of your category's citations come from forum threads changes where the work should go — and it is not something a rank tracker can tell you.

What AI reads before it answers you

Citation sources across your prompts, last 30 days.

Forums & UGC34%

Review sites26%

Documentation18%

News13%

Corporate pages9%

A third of what gets cited is a forum thread you do not control. That is a finding, not a fix — and it changes where the effort should go.

Referring domains, against the field

Root domains from a full backlink index — a count, not an estimate.

rival-c.com32,014

rival-d.com12,394

yourbrand.com121

265× behind the median. Stated as a fact, not a verdict — it tells you the size of the gap, not whether closing it is the best use of this quarter.

Organic clicks vs AI referralsOrganicAI referrals

Twelve months, from your Search Console and GA4.

Two scales, because 402 and 3,680 do not share an axis honestly. AI referrals grew 4.6× and are still 11% of organic. Both of those matter.

[06] COMPARISON

How CoreCited compares, with the dates attached.

The headline price in this category is rarely the price of the product people think they are buying. Below is what each entry plan actually includes, read off each vendor's own pricing page rather than a roundup — and the comparison pages behind it list what those tools do better than us, because a comparison nobody believes converts nobody.

Tool	Entry	What that entry price actually buys	Free tier
CoreCited	$69	40 prompts across 6 surfaces — ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google's AI Overviews and AI Mode. No engine is sold separately and none is held back for Enterprise.	20 checks, no card
Profound	on request	No price is published. The pricing page shows a free 7-day Trial (50 prompts a day on ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews) and a custom-priced Enterprise plan that tracks up to 9 answer engines.	A free 7-day trial with unlimited seats. There is no ongoing free plan: after the trial, tracking is Enterprise, priced by sales.
Otterly.AI	$29	$29 Lite gets you 15 prompts. The API and MCP server only begin at the $189 Standard tier.	Free trial only. There is no free tier, despite what several blog roundups claim.
Rank Prompt	$39	$39 a month, or $470 a year (no annual discount), for 150 credits and 10 brands, owner seat only. Credits meter usage: one credit per prompt on the standard engines.	A free plan with 10 credits a month and 3 brands, no card required. Paid plans also come with a 7-day trial of 50 credits.
Semrush AI Visibility	$99	$99 a month for 1 domain and 25 tracked prompts. Extra prompts cost $60/mo per 50, extra domains $99/mo each, and extra users $99 each.	Semrush's own knowledge base says the AI Visibility Toolkit "does not currently offer a free trial". Its main SEO plans have a free plan and a trial; this toolkit does not.
Ahrefs Brand Radar	$129	The cheapest way in is the $129/mo Lite plan, which includes 5 tracked AI prompts. The Brand Radar AI add-on, for market-wide AI visibility data, starts at $199/mo on top of a plan, and custom prompt packs cost $50, $100 or $250 a month.	No free trial is mentioned on Ahrefs' pricing page.
Peec AI	on request	Four paid tiers. We are not quoting a number: the widely-repeated €89 figure failed verification against their own page, and we won't publish a price we haven't read ourselves.	No free plan and no trial stated on their pricing page. (Blog claims of a 'free starter plan' were refuted.)

Every figure read from each vendor's own pricing page between 23 September 2026 and 26 September 2026, not from a roundup. Prices in this category change often — if you find one of these out of date, tell us and we'll fix it. Full comparisons, including what each tool does better than us →

[07] LIMITS

What we don't claim.

Four things this product cannot do. They are gaps in what is measurable today, not gaps in our roadmap, and every vendor in this category has them — some just don't mention it. You would rather find out here than after the invoice.

Prompt volume

Nobody can tell you how many people asked an AI a given question. It would take a licensed consumer panel, and anyone quoting you a number is modelling, not measuring.

AI Overview click traffic

No API exposes it. GA4 folds those sessions into organic, so any tool showing you a separate figure has estimated it.

Copilot citations

No public API. We would rather track six surfaces properly than list a seventh we cannot read.

Any guarantee of being mentioned

We measure what the engines say and tell you what to fix. Nobody controls the output of a model they don't own.

[08] PRICING

One price, all six surfaces, no add-ons.

Engines are never sold separately here and nothing is held back for a custom-priced tier. The only things that change between plans are how many prompts and brands you track, and how much of the content loop you get.

[09] QUESTIONS

Questions people actually ask.

How is this different from my SEO tools?

Traditional SEO tools track Google rankings. We track whether AI engines — ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini — actually mention your brand when buyers ask them questions. Ranking #1 on Google no longer means you appear in the AI answer.

Which AI engines do you cover?

ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, plus Google’s AI Overviews and AI Mode — on every paid plan, with no per-engine add-ons. Otterly doesn't track Claude at all, and Peec keeps it behind custom-priced Enterprise.

How often do you check?

Weekly. A single reading can't tell you much, because the tail of AI answers rotates constantly while a small core of names stays put. So we track the trend and tell you which one you're in — and only alert you when a move is bigger than normal drift.

Is there really a free plan?

Yes. You get a one-time batch of free checks — no card — which is enough to see your first Core vs Carousel verdict. There's also a public checker you can run right now without signing up. The free credits don't renew; paid plans refresh every month.

Do you just measure, or help me fix it?

Both. Every plan includes a GEO audit that scores your pages, a prioritised fix list, and blindspot reports showing the prompts where competitors get named and you don't.

Start with 20 free checks.

Enter your domain and see which of the six surfaces name you today. No card, no call, no trial that quietly starts billing.
