A read-only view of their project: the rates, the ranking and the trend, without your plan, billing or settings. Viewer seats are unlimited on every paid plan.
“I can clearly understand how our brand is represented in AI-generated responses. I find the combination of visibility data, specific answers, and the sources used particularly helpful. … The competitor comparison also shows which questions mention other providers and where our brand is still missing.”
“I work in advertising technology, and lately many of my clients have been asking what happens when their customers stop searching and simply ask ChatGPT instead. Ayzeo is the first tool I’ve used that lets me answer that question with real evidence.”
“Ayzeo shows me how visible our brand is in AI answers for the Dutch market. … I don’t need to jump between tools or build reports myself. For a small country team like ours, that matters a lot.”
“I like Ayzeo’s lightning-fast support and rapid feature development. … I find the competitor view particularly valuable because it gives me instant benchmarking, shows where competitors outperform our clients in AI chats, and lets me quickly close those gaps.”
What is the difference between a citation and a mention?
A citation occurs when an AI system opens/visits your URL to read your content. A mention is when your brand name is explicitly stated in the AI's response text. You can have citations without mentions (AI uses your content anonymously) or mentions without citations (AI knows about you from training data).
Does AI actually "visit" my website?
Yes! Many AI systems (especially Perplexity, and increasingly ChatGPT and others) browse the web in real-time to answer queries. When they visit your URL, that's a citation. We track which of your pages get opened and how often.
Which AI platforms do you track?
Every plan includes ChatGPT and Google AI Overview — the two most-used AI platforms with over 2 billion users combined. Both are enabled automatically on all projects at no extra cost.
For broader coverage, you can add Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and Grok as add-ons, plus DeepSeek on request. Each model has its own breakdown in AI visibility so you can see exactly how your brand performs on each platform separately.
How often is tracking updated?
Your prompts are analyzed on a regular schedule depending on your plan. Higher tiers get more frequent updates. You can also run a prompt anytime from your dashboard.
Can I track competitors and keywords?
Yes! You can add competitor brands to track and compare share-of-voice. You can also create custom prompts targeting specific keywords relevant to your business.
What does sentiment mean and how is it determined?
Sentiment measures whether AI describes your brand positively, neutrally, or negatively. We analyze the exact phrases used when mentioning your brand and show you the evidence so you can understand and address any issues.
