CiteSurge supports eight named AI systems when each provider is configured, ready, enabled for the project, and returning reliable evidence; unavailable results retain a neutral state.
CiteSurge · eight AI platform guidesSee how your brand appears across the AI systems buyers use.
CiteSurge shows how your brand appears in ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Bing Copilot, and Grok. Each dated observation keeps the answer, mention, visible citation, market, prompt, and availability attached to the AI system that produced it.

Why measure each AI system?
The same buyer question can produce different brands, explanations, and source links in different AI systems. A blended score hides those differences. CiteSurge keeps every supported result tied to its system, prompt, market, date, answer, mention, visible citation, and availability state.
Read how CiteSurge builds and governs the buyer-question set.
What does CiteSurge measure?
Current paid plans use a weekly cadence by default. Coverage depends on the systems, prompts, markets, provider readiness, and plan limits enabled for the project.
- 01Dated observations across eight supported AI systems when reliable evidence is available.
- 02Brand mention and visible citation classification for each approved buyer question.
- 03Answer, prompt, market, timing, and source context retained with each result.
- 04Neutral unavailable states when a provider or response does not support a reliable measurement.
What does your team receive?
Your team receives a system-by-system view of where the brand is cited, mentioned, or absent when reliable evidence is available. Each result remains dated and scoped, so later observations can be compared without pretending every AI system behaves the same way.
- 01Per-system answers, mentions, and visible citation evidence where available.
- 02Weekly default measurement with run dates and project scope kept visible.
- 03Competitor and source context linked back to the contributing observations.
- 04Unavailable evidence reported as unavailable, never converted into measured absence.
What supports the measurement?
A reviewable observation shows which prompt ran, which AI system answered, which market applied, when the run occurred, what answer was returned, whether the brand appeared, which visible citation URLs were present, and whether evidence was unavailable.
OpenAI documents OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, and GPTBot as separate controls for search, user-requested access, and potential training, which is why crawler access and answer evidence cannot be treated as one measure.
OpenAI · Publishers and Developers FAQMentions, citations, and referral clicks stay distinct in CiteSurge reporting because each has a different observation method, denominator, and limitation.
CiteSurge · mentions versus citationsCiteSurge records what it sees, identifies the gap, records the recommended changes and completed work, and measures again. The public method preserves scope, evidence, and limitations. Delivery details remain private.
Common questions
CiteSurge supports ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Bing Copilot, and Grok when each provider is configured, ready, enabled for the project, and returning reliable evidence.
Each run can return different answer, mention, and citation evidence. Separate records preserve which system produced an observation instead of implying that one result represents every platform.
Tracked questions are scoped from the project's brand brief, entity record, offering, audience, markets, competitors, existing questions, and latest audit. The project owner can review and manage the active set within plan limits.
Current paid plans use a weekly cadence by default. Actual coverage depends on enabled prompts, markets, AI systems, provider readiness, and applicable limits.
Supported customer views retain the response, prompt, citations, mentions, engine, market, and run context that are available for the observation.
CiteSurge reports a neutral unavailable or not-measured state. Provider readiness and missing citation metadata are not treated as evidence that a brand was absent.

Which AI systems do your buyers use?
The audit establishes how your brand appears across supported AI systems for approved buyer questions. CiteSurge can then monitor the agreed systems, markets, and prompts on a weekly default cadence.
