AI visibility checker

Ask a real answer engine a real buyer question and see who it recommends. No account, no card, and a result page you can share.

What an AI visibility check actually measures

the live page, in this console

Not a keyword position. When a buyer asks ChatGPT or Perplexity for the best tool in your category, the engine writes a paragraph naming a few products and links some of them. A visibility check reads that paragraph and answers three questions: were you linked, were you merely named, and who was named instead.

Those are three different states with three different fixes. Being named without a link means the engine knows you exist but had nothing it wanted to link, usually solved by publishing the comparison page it was looking for. Being absent entirely is a different problem: you are missing from the sources the engine reads.

Why this one takes a few minutes

Most free checkers either call a model API, which answers differently from the consumer product your buyers use, or return a cached guess. This one queues your question onto a pool of real, signed-in browser sessions and types it in like a person. That pool is shared and rate-limited, so you wait your turn, and you can see the queue while you do.

It is a strange thing to advertise as a feature, so here is the honest version: it is slower because it is real, and it is free because the pool is shared rather than dedicated to you.

One check is a snapshot

Answer engines are not deterministic. Ask the same question twice and the set of cited domains moves, only about 2.2% of cited domains recur across three runs of the same prompt. So treat a single result as a signal, not a baseline: the useful version is the same questions asked every week across every engine, where the trend is the thing that means something.

That is what the paid product does, from $5/mo. If you would rather read about the levers first, start with how to rank in ChatGPT or the comparison of every AEO tool.

The question has to be one a buyer would type without knowing you exist. These are the three the generator proposed for three real product sites. The two marked in caution ink carry the brand’s own name, which measures something else.

Frozen off the live endpoint on 2026-09-19. This app strips the brand out of the subject before it builds a category question, so the form above proposes unbranded ones. The whole read.
