Enter your brand and website. We ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews five buyer questions and show where you were cited, where you were not, and who was cited instead.
Enter your brand name, your website and, if you like, one line on what you sell. Press Check. We write five questions a buyer in your category would ask, run each through ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI Overviews, and read every answer for a link to your site or a mention of your name. The check takes one to three minutes because the answers are generated live. You get a grid of cited or not cited per engine and prompt, plus the domains the engines cited instead of you. Results for a domain are kept for a week.
A growing share of buyers ask an AI assistant which product to pick before they search, and the assistant recommends a short list drawn from the pages it can cite. If your site is not in that list, you are invisible to those buyers however well you rank on Google. The sites that do get cited are mostly cited for specific, well-structured pages, which is fixable. This check shows the gap, and the competitors column shows what the engines prefer.
It generates five buyer-style prompts for your category, sends them to ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews through their live interfaces, and scans each answer for citations of your domain and mentions of your brand. Cited means the answer linked to your site; mentioned means it named you without a link.
AI engines pull from a small set of sources per answer and prefer pages with clear structure, direct answers and third-party mentions: comparison articles, review sites, community posts. Ranking on Google helps most with Google's AI Overviews and least with ChatGPT. The competitors list shows which sources each engine trusts in your category.
Distribb tracks 25 prompts per project every week across all engines, records which pages were cited, tracks your share of voice against named competitors over time, and writes the content that earns the missing citations. This free check runs five prompts once.
