Citation Analysis

Citation monitoring & tracking in AI Search

Citation's are the new currency of the internet, and citation analysis shows you who's rich and who's poor. Learn which domains and pages LLMs are pulling from when they answer questions about your category. Know the landscape. Find the gaps. Get cited.

Why citations matter

AI doesn't make up answers. It pulls them from somewhere.

Specialist publishers, forums, review platforms, aggregators, competitor content - these are the sources shaping what AI says about your category. If they don't mention your brand, you don't exist in the answer. Most brands have no idea which sources are driving those AI responses. Citation analysis changes that.
