The problem it solves

You can't tell if your website is actually showing up in Google's AI-generated answers, or which competitors are getting cited instead. Checking manually for every keyword you care about isn't realistic to do regularly.

Who it fits

SEO analysts or marketers who want to track brand visibility in AI-generated search results.

How it works

  1. On a set schedule, the system searches Google AI Mode for your target keyword
  2. It extracts the source title, URL, and domain of every citation
  3. The results are cleaned and organized
  4. The data is added to a Google Sheet you can review anytime
What you get

AI search mentions you'd otherwise never see

You get visibility into which sites Google's AI answers cite for your most important keywords.

What you get

A Google Sheet log of which sites are cited in Google's AI answers for your keywords.

What you need

A Google Workspace account and a search data API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
