AI Visibility Checker — Does ChatGPT/Gemini Mention Your Brand?

37% of consumers now start product searches with an AI assistant instead of Google. This Actor checks whether your brand actually shows up when someone asks the kind of question your customers are typing into ChatGPT/Gemini right now — position, sentiment, and which competitors get mentioned alongside you — backed by live Google Search grounding, not a stale guess.

Why this instead of a full multi-engine GEO audit tool

Full AI-visibility audit platforms check 5+ engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Copilot, Google AI Overview, Gemini) with query fan-out, typically for $0.30+/query or a monthly subscription. This Actor checks visibility via a single, well-grounded engine at a fraction of the cost — the right starting point if you want a fast, cheap signal before committing to a full audit subscription.

Common questions, answered directly

How do I check if ChatGPT or Gemini recommends my brand?

Give it your brand and a real question a customer would type into an AI assistant — it checks whether/how you're mentioned, grounded in a live search, not a stale guess.

Is there a cheap way to track AI search visibility (GEO/AEO) without a subscription?

Yes — this checks visibility per question at $0.10/check, pay-as-you-go, versus the $0.30+/query or monthly-subscription full audit platforms.

How do I know if competitors are mentioned more than me in AI answers?

Add them to the competitors list and the report calls out which ones appear alongside you in the same answer.

What you can use this for

• Marketing/SEO teams starting to track "AI search" visibility (GEO/AEO) without committing to an enterprise subscription.
• Indie makers and small businesses who want to know "does AI recommend me?" for their key buying-decision queries.
• Agencies running quick visibility spot-checks for clients before proposing a full audit.
