AI visibility tool

The AI visibility tool that shows who AI cites instead of you

Alice checks the questions your buyers ask on Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Claude, daily on paid plans, records whether you are cited, mentioned or missing, names who got the citation, and puts the visits and signups, orders or leads on the pages AI cites next to it. Built for the person who approves the work rather than runs the tools.

First, what “AI visibility” means

Three different measurements share one name

Before you compare tools, decide which question you are buying an answer to. A score out of 100 and a share of answers that name you are not the same thing.

01

Can AI reach the page?

Whether AI crawlers can open your pages, whether the words are there when they arrive, and whether the page describes itself in a form machines read. A technical audit finds what you can fix on your own site. Passing it does not mean an answer will name you.

Alice checks it in the free website audit, in about 30 seconds.

02

Does the answer name or cite you?

This needs real questions, asked on real engines, with the answers kept. Cited means a page on your site is linked. Mentioned means you are named with no link. An answer can mention you and link to someone else.

Alice asks your buyer questions daily on paid plans, weekly on the free plan, and keeps every answer with its sources.

03

Did anyone arrive?

An answer can recommend you without sending a visit, and a visit can arrive without becoming a customer. Each is its own measurement.

Connect Search Console and GA4 and Alice shows visits to the pages AI cites, with your signups, orders or leads next to them.

What the instrument answers

Three questions, in the order you would ask them

Audit

Where are you invisible?

For each buyer question, Alice shows whether you were cited, mentioned or missing on each engine, and which competitor or third-party page took the citation. That is the gap to work on.

Monitor

Is it improving?

The same questions, checked on a schedule and kept as a series, so a change on your site has a before and an after. An engine that returns no sources is recorded separately, not counted as a miss.

Did it matter?

With your own Search Console and GA4 connected, Alice puts search impressions, visits and your chosen outcome event next to the citations. Next to is not because of; Alice says so when the sample is too small to read.

Who it is for

Made for the person who approves the work

Founders, CXOs and business leaders who need to know what changed, what it means, and what to approve next, without learning the vocabulary of SEO tools.

  • A weekly brief in plain language

    Which citations you gained or lost, who is cited instead, and the one page worth changing first. Readable on a phone.

  • Every reading keeps its receipt

    The question, the engine, the date, the full answer and its sources are stored. Nothing is a score you have to take on trust.

  • Drafts you approve, never changes you discover

    Alice drafts the page changes and the posts for the gaps she found (Beta). Nothing goes live until you approve it.

  • Starts without a connection

    Enter your website. Analytics connections are optional and add search queries, visits and outcomes when you want them.

What Alice does not claim

The honest edges

  1. 01

    The ChatGPT and Claude readings come from an OpenAI model and the Anthropic API with web search, not from the consumer apps. They are a proxy and can differ from what a person sees. Perplexity is not tracked.

  2. 02

    Checks run daily on paid plans and weekly on the free plan, not continuously. An answer can change between two checks.

  3. 03

    No tool can promise a citation, including this one. Alice shows the reading before and after a change you make; whether it moved is visible, not guaranteed.

  4. 04

    Visits and outcomes sit next to citations, joined on the page that was cited. That is context for a decision, not proof of cause.

We build Alice, so we say so in both posts and compare the jobs each product is designed for, from vendor documentation, not a controlled accuracy test.

Questions about AI visibility tools

What is an AI visibility tool?

An AI visibility tool checks whether AI answer engines such as Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Claude name or link to your business when someone asks a question in your category, and tracks that over time. Some tools stop at a technical audit of your site; some also ask real questions and keep the answers; a few also connect the answers to the visits and customers that follow.

What does Alice check, and how often?

Alice asks the buyer questions you choose, plus questions drawn from your own search queries, on Google AI Overviews, an OpenAI model with web search and the Anthropic API with web search. Each answer is stored with its sources and marked cited, mentioned, not cited, or no sources returned. Paid plans check daily; the free plan checks five questions weekly.

Does it tell me who is cited instead of me?

Yes. For every question where you are not cited, Alice lists the domains the engine drew on, so you can see whether a competitor, a directory, a review site or a community page took the citation, and where you have nothing published.

Do I need Search Console or GA4 to use it?

No. Enter your website to start. Search Console adds queries, clicks and impressions; GA4 adds visits and your signup, purchase or lead events. Those connections are read-only and take about ten seconds each.

Can an AI visibility tool get me cited?

No tool can promise that, and we do not. What Alice does is show the gap, name the page and the question to work on, draft the change for your approval if you connect GitHub, and keep checking so you can see whether the reading moved afterward.

Is there a free AI visibility check?

Yes. The free check runs a website audit plus one question about your brand and one buyer question across all three engines, with no signup. The free plan then watches five buyer questions weekly.

Start with your website

One brand question and one buyer question across three engines, plus the audit. No signup. The audit takes about 30 seconds and the AI answers up to two minutes.
