Does ChatGPT recommend your business, or your competitor?

Your AI Visibility Score is a number from 0 to 100 that measures how often AI platforms like ChatGPT, Google AI, and Perplexity mention your business when someone searches for the products or services you offer in your area. A score of 100 means AI recommends you first every time. Most businesses we check score between 10 and 30, which means AI is sending the majority of their potential customers to competitors.

Yes. Enter the website URL, sign up with a free account on the way, and the analysis runs at no cost: the full AI Visibility Score, the competitor ranking and the first insights, on a real dashboard that stays yours. No card needed. The account is what the results live on, so they are still there when you come back. What a paid plan adds is the ongoing part: fresh analysis every working day and the full optimization plan.

Enter your business website URL in the checker above. Our system reads your site, identifies your business name, category, and location, then sends real customer queries to ChatGPT, Google AI, Perplexity, Claude and Grok. Within a few minutes the dashboard shows whether ChatGPT mentions your business, your ranking position, and which competitors show up instead.

The fastest way to find out is to run the free AI visibility test above. It works as a ChatGPT visibility checker: it asks ChatGPT the questions your customers actually ask and shows whether your business gets named, ignored, or beaten by a competitor. If ChatGPT does not know your business yet, the report lists the facts and sources it is missing, so you can start fixing your brand visibility in ChatGPT.

Google and ChatGPT work in fundamentally different ways. Google ranks web pages based on keywords, backlinks, and technical SEO. ChatGPT recommends businesses based on how much reliable, specific, and consistent information it can find about you across many independent sources: review sites, business directories, third-party articles, and industry mentions. A website alone usually isn't enough. A strong presence across the broader web is what matters.

Traditional SEO optimizes your website for Google's link-based ranking algorithm using keywords, backlinks, and technical factors. AI visibility (also called Generative Engine Optimization or GEO) focuses on how large language models like ChatGPT and Google AI select which businesses to recommend. AI engines prioritize verified facts confirmed across multiple independent sources rather than keyword density or link profiles. A business can be #1 on Google and completely invisible in AI search.

AI platforms like ChatGPT, Google AI, and Perplexity build their recommendations from patterns across the entire web. The key signals include: consistent business information (name, address, phone) across directories, volume and recency of customer reviews, mentions in third-party articles and local guides, specific verifiable facts (certifications, years of experience, specialties), and structured data on your website. The more independent sources confirm the same facts about your business, the more likely AI is to recommend you.

The first analysis asks all five assistants people use for search: ChatGPT, Google AI (the AI Overview built into Google Search), Perplexity, Claude and Grok. Each gets the same five real customer questions, so the report shows which of them recommend the business and which recommend a competitor instead. Together these platforms handle billions of queries every month.

The most effective actions are: ensure your business name, address, and phone number are identical everywhere (review sites, directories, your website), get mentioned in third-party articles and local guides, add specific facts about your business to your profiles (certifications, years in business, specialties), respond to customer reviews, and make sure your website has clear structured data. Our full platform gives you a prioritized weekly action plan, and each task names the page to change and the claim it is missing.

Initial improvements from fixing business citations and updating directory listings can show results within 2 to 4 weeks as AI models refresh their knowledge. Building stronger visibility through third-party mentions, review accumulation, and content authority is a longer process, typically 2 to 3 months for meaningful score changes. The key is consistency: AI engines look for patterns confirmed across many sources over time.

Local businesses are the most affected by AI search. When someone asks ChatGPT 'best dentist near me' or tells Google AI 'find a plumber in Austin,' the AI gives two or three names, and the person usually contacts the first one. There's no page 2 to scroll through. If your local business isn't in that short list, you're invisible. Our data shows that restaurants, dentists, lawyers, real estate agents, and home service providers see the biggest impact from AI visibility optimization.

Just your business website URL. That's it. Our system automatically reads your website and identifies your business name, category, and location. Then it runs the same searches your real customers would run and checks if AI mentions you in the results. Discovery and the first analysis take a few minutes, and the results fill in on the dashboard as they arrive.

Competitor tracking is built into the analysis itself: the report names the businesses AI recommends instead, with their standing next to yours, so the free analysis already shows who is winning your queries. The free analysis covers one business per account; tracking further businesses, or running a report for every prospect the way agencies do, is what the paid plans are for.
