What are AI visibility tools?
AI visibility tools measure how often AI assistants name or cite your brand when someone asks a question in your market. They put a fixed set of buyer questions to engines such as ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, save each answer, and record which brands it named and which pages it cited. Rank.ai does that every day, then writes and publishes the articles that answer the questions you are missing from.
What is an AI rank tracker?
An AI rank tracker is the same kind of tool seen from the SEO side: where a Google rank tracker records your position for a keyword, an AI rank tracker records whether an assistant names you for a question, where you appear in its answer, and which pages it cited. Rank.ai checks your Google keywords too, so both sit in one place.
How do I see my AI visibility?
For one question, the
free AI visibility checker asks it once and shows who gets named. For a fuller picture, the
free AI grade puts 12 questions your customers ask to ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini and scores how often they name you. To watch it move, add your questions to Rank.ai and it asks them every day.
How do you increase AI visibility?
Find the questions where AI names a competitor and you are missing, read the pages those answers cite, and publish a page on your own site that answers the question better. Then get your business onto the lists and directories the answers read. Our guide to
answer engine optimization covers the steps, our
generative engine optimization guide the evidence behind each one, and Rank.ai writes and publishes those articles for you.
How does Rank.ai track ChatGPT answers?
You add the questions your buyers ask, and Rank.ai asks ChatGPT each one every day through its API with web search on, using the same question text every time. Each answer is checked for your name and aliases and for links to your site, subdomains included. One answer is a snapshot, so the number to watch is how often you are named across the daily answers.
Which AI engines does Rank.ai track?
ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini answer every question you add, every day, asked through each engine's API with web search on. You can switch on Perplexity, Grok or DeepSeek for any question. Every engine is available from $49 a month.
Do you track Google AI Overviews, Copilot or Meta AI?
Not as engines today. On the Google side, Rank.ai flags each keyword you check where Google shows an AI Overview, so you know which results pages have one.
Can I track competitors?
Yes. Every answer records the businesses it named, so you see who is named in your place. Add competitors to see your share of the mentions against each one. Each mention is also tagged positive, neutral, negative or mixed.
How is this different from SEO rank tracking?
SEO rank tracking records your position on a Google results page for a keyword. AI visibility tracking records whether you are named inside the answer an assistant writes. Rank.ai works on both: every plan checks Google keywords every day and writes articles to rank for them, and AI questions to win start on Starter.
What is AI bot analytics?
A log of the AI crawlers that visit your site, such as GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot, and the pages they read. You add a snippet to your server or edge, and Rank.ai keeps the AI crawler visits and drops the rest. It is included from Starter.
Can I share results with a client?
Yes. Turn on a share link for any tracked question and anyone with the link can open its results without logging in. The same results can be embedded in another page, and every question exports to CSV.
Can you guarantee AI will recommend us?
No one can guarantee what an AI will say. Rank.ai shows where you're missing, writes and publishes the articles that answer those questions, and asks again every day so you can see what moved.
How much does an AI visibility tool cost?
Rank.ai starts at $49 a month for 5 AI questions to win, $129 for 25 and $399 for 100, each checked every day in ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, with articles written and published on every plan. Free is $0 with no AI questions, and every new account starts with 14 days of Growth, no card. Done-for-you starts at $2,000 a month.
