AI citation tracking
Autessa Visibility includes AI citation tracking: it lists every domain and page that ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Gemini cite in their answers, how often, on which engines, and whether those answers mention you. Citation coverage and citation share measure how often the engines cite your own domain.
The problem
AI answers are built from someone else’s pages
Engines that search the web assemble their answers from a handful of sources. If those sources do not mention you, you will not be mentioned either. Citation tracking shows which pages shape your category’s answers, so outreach and content go where they count.
What you get
- Four headline numbers: citation coverage, citation share, domains cited and gap sources.
- Cited domains with type, answers, engines, share, coverage and answers with you.
- Cited pages, URL by URL, with type, answers and engines.
- Top cited sources on the Overview: the sites the engines lean on, your outreach list.
- Every answer’s cited sources in the answer inspector.
