AI Shopping Visibility & Citation Gap API
Discover which products AI shopping search recommends, which competitors win, and which websites appear in its sources.
The AI Shopping Visibility & Citation Gap API analyzes brand visibility across ChatGPT Search and Perplexity Search. It runs six buyer-intent questions through both search engines, producing a structured 12-check competitive shopping audit.
Instead of simply checking whether an AI mentions your brand, this Actor examines which products are recommended, who receives top-pick placements, and where competing brands appear.
What you get
- Brand recommendation rate: How often the target brand appears in product recommendations.
- Category winners: Products explicitly identified as overall or top choices.
- Competitor visibility: Competing brands, recommended products, and their frequency of appearance.
- Buyer-intent breakdown: Separate findings for general shopping, value, premium, lightweight travel, convenience, and high-output use cases.
- Source visibility: Websites and URLs returned by the search engines, including brand-owned content.
- Citation-gap observations: Cases where a brand's website appears in source results without its products being recommended.
- Evidence records: Supporting excerpts, original search answers, and per-check results.
How to use
- Enter the brand you want to analyze.
- Provide the brand's official website domain.
- Enter the product category.
- Choose the supported market, currently United States.
- Start the Actor and retrieve the JSON report from the default dataset.
For example, enter Anker, anker.com, and power banks to analyze Anker's visibility against competing power-bank brands.
The Actor automatically runs the twelve search checks. You do not need to write prompts or configure the individual search engines.
What the output includes
The default dataset contains one structured audit report. Important fields include:
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
reportStatus | Complete or partial audit |
checksAttempted | Search checks attempted |
checksUsable | Searches returning usable answers |
brandRecommendationRatePct | Percentage of usable checks recommending the brand |
brandTopPickChecks | Checks where the brand receives an explicit overall-winner designation |
intentResults | Results organized by shopping intent and search engine |
competitorSummary | Competing brands and recommendation frequencies |
recommendedProducts | Products associated with the target brand |
competitorProducts | Products associated with competitors |
sourceDomainSummary | Source domains and observed frequency |
citationGapSummary | Brand-source visibility without corresponding recommendations |
promptResults | Individual search results, evidence, and supporting details |
Results are suitable for further processing through the Apify API, dataset exports, or downstream analytics workflows.
Pricing
$0.99 per completed twelve-check audit.
A completed-audit billing event is triggered only when all twelve checks produce usable results. If one or more checks remain unusable, the Actor may provide a partial report without triggering the completed-audit charge.
Temporary upstream failures may be retried within bounded limits.
Important limitations
AI shopping recommendations can vary between runs. Results represent a snapshot of specific prompts and search services, not a comprehensive measurement of every answer shown to ChatGPT or Perplexity users.
A product's appearance does not guarantee future visibility, commercial performance, or improved search rankings.
Source URLs are reported as observed by the upstream search services. Their inclusion does not establish that a particular page caused an AI recommendation. Product names and source classifications may occasionally be incomplete or ambiguous.
This Actor provides competitive research data, not guaranteed placement, search-engine optimization outcomes, or verification of product specifications.
Who it's for
Useful for ecommerce brands, marketplace sellers, digital marketers, GEO and AI-search optimization professionals, competitive intelligence researchers, and agencies evaluating product visibility in AI-assisted shopping.
Use the results to identify competitive gaps, compare buyer-intent scenarios, and prioritize further research.
