Platform / AI Visibility

Know exactly what AI tells your buyers about you.

Every day, longrtail asks ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and Google’s AI the questions your buyers ask. You see how often you’re named, what they say, who they recommend instead and the sources they trust, in plain numbers.

  • Six AI assistants
  • Checked every day
  • 5,000 answers a month
The client dashboard for a law firm: share of AI answers that name the business with a likely range, AI answers checked, a daily chart of AI answers and what AI assistants said about the business.
Why it matters

Your buyers are asking AI. Do you know what it says?

AI is the new shortlist

Buyers ask an assistant who to call, which product to pick or what something costs, and many act on the answer without ever seeing a list of links.

You can’t see it from your desk

Every answer is written fresh. Ask once and you see one answer on one day. It tells you almost nothing about what your buyers see.

Rankings don’t tell you

You can rank well on Google and still be missing from AI answers, or the other way round. The two need measuring separately.

How it works

Your questions, six assistants, every day

No prompts to write, no screenshots to collect. We run the checks and turn thousands of answers into a few numbers you can act on.

  1. 1

    Your buyer questions

    Our team builds the set of questions your buyers really ask: for each service you sell, the cities you serve and every stage of the decision.

  2. 2

    Asked every day

    The same questions go to six AI assistants every day, so a single lucky or unlucky answer never decides what you see.

  3. 3

    Every answer read

    We record whether you were named or linked, who was named instead, the sources the answer leaned on and, where the assistant shows them, the searches it ran first.

  4. 4

    Plain numbers, honest ranges

    Answers vary, so you see the share that name you with a likely range, and a short note when something has really changed.

What you see

Everything AI says about you, in one place

These are the cards in your dashboard. Hover them: every number shows what sits behind it.

01

How often AI names you

The share of answers that name or link to your business, month by month and day by day, with a likely range around it. It is the one number to watch.

Do AI assistants recommend you?

Share of AI answers that name you, checked every month.

YouLikely rangeCompetitor named most

From 8% in May to 38% in Nov, now ahead of every competitor.

02

What AI said, word for word

What AI assistants said about you

Lines from answers that named you this month.

Claude

“Real Estate Co. is also worth a call.”

Asked: Who are good real estate agents in Scottsdale?
Claude

“Real Estate Co. is the one most often recommended, with strong recent reviews.”

Asked: Scottsdale or Tempe: where should we live?
04

Who AI recommends instead

The businesses named when you aren’t, ranked, with their own likely ranges. It is the clearest picture you will get of who you’re really competing with in AI answers.

BCompetitor B 28%

05

By service and by assistant

Where you’re named most and where the gaps are, for each thing you sell. A service the assistants ignore is a page waiting to be written.

By service and assistant, for a dental practice: dental implants, clear aligners and general questions, with the share of answers that name the practice in each assistant, coloured where it is clearly above or below its norm.
06

City by city

If you serve more than one place, see how often AI names you for the questions that mention each city, against your overall share.

Where in your area AI names you: Dallas, your HQ, and Nashville, each with a share of answers and a likely range, against a dashed line for all questions.
07

The sources AI leans on

The sites the answers link to for your questions: directories, review sites, guides, your rivals and your own pages. It shows where you need to be mentioned.

Get a clearer picture

AI answers change from day to day. We show you the trend and how sure each number is, so you can act with confidence.

  • A range, not a guess

    Every share comes with a likely range, so you know how sure the number is before you act on it.

  • Colour only when it’s clear

    A service, city or assistant is marked above or below your norm only when the difference is real, not noise.

  • Too few answers? We say so

    Where there isn’t enough to tell yet, the dashboard says so instead of showing a number that will swing next week.

From seeing to winning

Then we help you close the gaps

Your dashboard keeps a short list of things only you can do that would help, like a listing to claim or a page to fix, in plain English. None of it is required for our work to go on.

On Authority and Dominance, the Content Engine goes further: it researches the questions where AI names someone else, writes the pages that answer them, and the dashboard shows what those pages win.

FAQ

AI Visibility questions

Which AI assistants do you track?

ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Mode and Google AI Overviews, on every plan.

How often are the answers checked?

Every day. Each plan tracks up to 5,000 AI answers a month, so the numbers rest on many answers, not a handful.

Where do the questions come from?

Our team builds them for you from your services, the cities you serve and what buyers in your market ask. You can ask us to add or drop a question at any time.

Why do you show a range instead of one number?

AI assistants answer the same question differently from one day to the next. A single number would jump around and mislead you. The likely range shows where your real share sits, and narrows as more answers come in.

Can I see which competitors AI recommends?

Yes. You see the businesses AI names instead of you, ranked, for each assistant and each question, and the sites the answers lean on.

Does tracking improve my visibility on its own?

No. Tracking shows where you stand and where the gaps are, with a short list of things you can do that would help. On Authority and Dominance, the Content Engine writes the pages that close those gaps.

Do I need to set anything up?

No. We build your questions and start checking. Connecting Google Search Console and Google Analytics adds your clicks and visits to the same dashboard, and is optional.

Who can see my dashboard?

Only your team. It is private to your business, and you choose who on your side can see it.
