About

Buying research moved. We help you see where it went.

Cited is built for the marketing and growth teams whose buyers now ask ChatGPT before they ever reach a search results page.

For twenty years, the deal was simple: buyers searched, results ranked, and you could see exactly where you stood. AI assistants broke that deal. Today a large share of product research ends inside a generated answer — a shortlist of three to five names, assembled by a model, invisible to every analytics tool you own.

We started Cited after watching it happen firsthand: a product with strong reviews and solid search rankings that simply didn't exist in ChatGPT's answers, while three competitors were recommended by name. Nobody on the team knew. There was no tool to know.

So we built the tool: continuous tracking of what ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Google AI Overviews say about your brand, who they recommend instead, which sources they trust — and a concrete, prioritized path to changing the answer.

What we believe

Measure before you optimize

Most GEO advice is guesswork because nobody is looking at the answers. We start with evidence: the actual responses AI gives to your buyers' questions, captured on a schedule, across every platform that matters.

Show the why, not just the number

A visibility score without the citations behind it is a vanity metric. Every number in Cited traces back to real answers and real sources, so you always know what to do about it.

No dark patterns, in product or practice

We won't help anyone astroturf communities or game models with fake content. Sustainable AI visibility comes from being genuinely well-documented and well-regarded — our job is to show you where that's not yet true.
