Free AI Visibility Checker
See how your brand shows up in AI search results from ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, and Google AI Overviews. No signup required. Results in seconds.
What is AI visibility?
People don’t just Google anymore. They ask ChatGPT, search on Perplexity, and get AI Overviews built right into Google. When someone asks an AI assistant “What’s the best [your product category]?” — the brands that show up in that answer have AI visibility. The ones that don’t are invisible to a growing share of search traffic.
AI visibility tracks how often and how prominently AI platforms mention your brand in their responses. It’s shaped by your brand’s overall presence across the web — the more authoritative sources that reference you, the more likely AI models are to cite you.
This is what’s now being called AEO, or Answer Engine Optimization: making sure your brand shows up when AI answers questions in your space.
How to check your brand’s AI visibility
Enter your brand name. Type it the way your audience would say it — “Ahrefs” rather than “Ahrefs Pte Ltd.” The tool also works with product names, personal brands, or competitor names.
Get your results. We query ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, and Google AI Overviews with search-backed prompts — real questions derived from what people actually search for — then check whether each AI platform mentions your brand in its response.
See where you stand. Your report shows total AI mentions, a breakdown by platform, the topics that trigger mentions, and which domains and pages get cited alongside your brand. Use it to spot gaps and prioritize your AEO strategy.
What’s in your free AI visibility report
This free tool gives you a limited preview of your brand’s AI visibility across all major platforms. Here’s what your report includes:
Total AI mentions. How many times AI platforms mentioned your brand across all the prompts we tested. This is your baseline — run the check periodically to see if your efforts are moving the needle.
Mentions by AI platform. Which platforms mention your brand most — and which ones don’t. You might show up frequently in Perplexity but be missing from ChatGPT entirely. That’s actionable.
Top 5 topics. The questions and subject areas where AI associates your brand. This shows you which parts of your expertise AI models have picked up on — and by implication, where they haven’t.
Top 5 cited domains. The websites AI platforms reference most when they mention your brand. If your own domain isn’t on this list, you know where to focus your content and digital PR.
Top 5 cited pages. The specific URLs most frequently cited alongside your brand. These are the pages shaping how AI talks about you.
