What is the Google Analytics Integration?

The Google Analytics integration connects your GA4 property to Ayzeo, enabling you to track and analyze traffic that originates from AI chatbots. While Ayzeo's AI Visibility score tells you how often AI systems mention your brand, the GA integration shows you the actual visitors coming from those AI recommendations.

AI Visibility Score

How often AI chatbots mention or recommend your brand

GA Integration

Real traffic data from visitors who clicked through from AI chatbots

Together, these metrics give you the complete picture: visibility tells you about potential, while traffic tells you about results.

AI Sources We Track

Ayzeo automatically identifies traffic from major AI chatbots and search engines:

ChatGPT ChatGPT
Claude Claude
Perplexity Perplexity
Gemini Gemini
Copilot Copilot
Phind Phind
You.com You.com
Kagi Kagi

We also track organic search, direct traffic, social media, and other referral sources for comparison.

How to Connect Google Analytics

1

Go to Project Settings

Navigate to your project and click on Settings in the sidebar. Then click on Google Analytics (marked with a "Pro" badge).

2

Click "Connect Google Analytics"

You'll be redirected to Google's OAuth consent screen. Sign in with the Google account that has access to your GA4 property.

3

Grant Read-Only Access

Ayzeo requests read-only access to your Analytics data. We never modify your GA settings or access any data beyond what's needed for traffic analysis.

4

Select Your GA4 Property

After authorization, you'll see a list of GA4 properties you have access to. Select the one that corresponds to your project's website.

5

Wait for Initial Sync

Ayzeo will automatically sync the last 90 days of historical data. This usually takes a few minutes. You'll see a "Syncing" indicator on your dashboard until it's complete.

Note: You need to be the project owner, admin, or editor to connect Google Analytics. Viewers cannot set up integrations.

What Data You'll See

AI Traffic Widget (Dashboard)

A quick overview on your project dashboard showing total AI sessions, AI traffic percentage, and your top AI traffic source.

AI Traffic Trend Chart

A 30-day trend showing how AI traffic has grown or declined over time, helping you measure the impact of your GEO optimization efforts.

AI Source Breakdown

See exactly how many sessions came from each AI platform (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, etc.), along with engagement metrics like bounce rate and session duration.

Top Landing Pages

Discover which pages on your site receive the most AI-referred traffic. This helps you understand what content AI chatbots are recommending.

Engagement Comparison

Compare how AI traffic engages with your site versus other traffic sources. Often AI visitors are more qualified because they asked specific questions.

Visibility-to-Traffic Correlation

See how your AI Visibility score correlates with actual AI traffic, helping you understand the business impact of your GEO efforts.

AI Traffic in White-Label Reports

When you generate a white-label PDF report, it will automatically include AI Traffic data if Google Analytics is connected. The report features:

  • AI Traffic Performance section with key metrics
  • AI source breakdown with chatbot logos
  • Engagement comparison (AI vs. other traffic)
  • 30-day AI traffic trend chart
  • Visibility-to-traffic insights in the Executive Summary

This makes it easy to show clients or stakeholders the real-world impact of GEO optimization.

Privacy & Security

Read-Only Access

Ayzeo only reads aggregated traffic data. We cannot modify your GA settings or access personal user data.

Encrypted Storage

OAuth tokens are encrypted using AES-256-GCM before storage.

Aggregated Data Only

We only store daily aggregated snapshots (sessions, users, bounce rate), not individual user data.

Easy Disconnection

You can disconnect your GA integration at any time from Project Settings. This revokes access and deletes stored tokens.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need GA4 or does Universal Analytics work?

The integration only works with GA4 properties. Universal Analytics was sunset by Google in 2024.

How often is data synced?

After the initial 90-day backfill, data is synced daily. You can trigger a manual sync from the settings page if needed.

What if I see very low AI traffic?

AI traffic is still a small percentage of total web traffic for most sites. If your AI Visibility score is high but traffic is low, it may indicate that AI is mentioning you but not linking directly. Focus on improving your content with clear calls-to-action and URLs.

Can multiple projects connect to the same GA property?

Yes, you can connect the same GA4 property to multiple Ayzeo projects if needed. Each project will maintain its own connection and sync independently.

Is this available on the Starter plan?

No, Google Analytics integration is a Pro and Enterprise feature. Upgrade to Pro to unlock this and other advanced features.
