Know When AI Cites Your Published Content

Yes. Create prompts aligned with the topics your key articles cover. Ayzeo tracks whether AI cites your URL, mentions your publication name, or references your reporting in its responses. You can organize prompts by editorial beat to get a topic-level view of citation performance.

Perplexity and ChatGPT with search enabled are the most active at citing publisher content with source links. Perplexity operates a dedicated Publishers' Program that shares advertising revenue with cited outlets. ChatGPT has formal licensing agreements with publishers like News Corp, the Associated Press, and The Washington Post. Claude and Gemini also reference publisher content, but their citation patterns and frequency differ.

Focus on NewsArticle schema markup with clear bylines, datePublished, and dateModified fields. Structure articles with concise answer capsules near the top, since 72% of ChatGPT-cited pages use this format. Maintain clean heading hierarchies, include original data or unique analysis, and keep pages link-free within the lead answer paragraph. Depth and specificity on your beat consistently outperforms generic coverage.

Yes, and niche publications often outperform general outlets for citation rates within their specialty topics. AI systems value topical depth and domain expertise. A trade publication with authoritative, well-structured content on a narrow subject area is more likely to be cited for queries in that domain than a general news outlet with surface-level coverage.

Yes. White-label PDF reports include citation analytics, visibility trends, platform-level breakdowns, and content performance metrics. Reports are fully brandable with your publication's logo and colors, making them suitable for editorial board meetings, investor updates, and content licensing discussions.

Traditional analytics measure visits to your site. AI citation tracking measures how your content performs inside AI platforms, where the interaction often never results in a click. AI crawlers consume content thousands of times more frequently than they send traffic back. Ayzeo tracks the upstream activity: whether your content was surfaced, cited, or mentioned in AI responses, regardless of whether the user clicked through.

Yes. Ayzeo provides documented evidence of how frequently and across which platforms your content is cited or referenced. This data quantifies your publication's contribution to AI-generated answers and can strengthen your position in licensing discussions with platforms like OpenAI and Perplexity, or support revenue-sharing program enrollment.
