Citation Analytics
Track Which Sources AI Engines Trust
Discover exactly which URLs drive AI answers about your brand. Monitor citation frequency, track citation drift, and benchmark against competitors across every major AI engine.
Visibility Without Attribution Is Blind
You know your brand appears in AI answers. But do you know which sources are actually driving those mentions?
Citation Drift Is Real
Research shows 40-60% of cited domains change monthly. The sources AI trusts today may be irrelevant tomorrow - and you would never know without tracking.
Hidden Influencers
Niche blogs, Reddit threads, and industry publications often have disproportionate citation power. Traditional SEO tools miss them - but AI engines trust them.
Competitors Win By Proxy
Your competitors may be getting cited through third-party content you have never seen. Without citation intelligence, you are fighting blind.
