How It Works

Track brand mentions in AI search

Foglift shows whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overview, Gemini, and Claude mention your brand, cite your pages, and recommend competitors instead.

Run a Technical Audit

AI Readiness in 30 seconds. No signup required.

Enter any URL and Foglift checks whether AI search engines can crawl, parse, and cite the page. The Technical Audit returns an AI Readiness Score plus the specific fixes most likely to help the page become sourceable.

Checks meta tags, structured data, JSON-LD, Open Graph

Evaluates AI crawler access (robots.txt, sitemap)

Measures Core Web Vitals via Google PageSpeed

Ranks Technical Audit issues by impact

Measure AI Visibility

See what ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overview, Gemini, and Claude say.

Foglift queries real AI engines with prompts your customers actually ask. You see which engines mention your brand, whether they cite a source URL, where you appear in the answer, how the sentiment reads, and which competitors are recommended instead.

Engine-by-engine visibility

AI search visibility is not one score from one model. Foglift measures how each engine retrieves, summarizes, cites, and ranks your brand.

ChatGPT

Brand mentions, list position, cited URLs, competitor recommendations, and answer language for buyer-intent prompts.

ChatGPT answers often blend training memory with web retrieval, so Foglift separates whether your brand is known from whether your current pages are cited.

Perplexity

Citation URLs, source diversity, competitor mentions, answer placement, and whether your page appears in the source set.

Perplexity is source-forward. Foglift treats source URLs as a first-class signal, not a secondary note.

Google AI Overview

On-demand visibility for every free account, source inclusion, direct-answer fit, and whether the page is eligible for Google-grounded summaries.

Google AI Overview is the free baseline because it ties AI answers to search-grounded retrieval and existing SEO infrastructure.

Gemini

Mention rate, sentiment, competitor set, and whether Gemini frames your category the same way your site does.

Gemini often expands the category definition before listing tools. Foglift checks whether your positioning survives that expansion.

Claude

Long-form answer inclusion, competitor ordering, sentiment, and whether Claude can extract the exact product language from your pages.

Claude responses tend to summarize evidence in longer sections, so clear entity identity and citation-ready paragraphs matter.

What Foglift measures

The dashboard separates mentions, citations, sentiment, and competitors so the next fix is concrete instead of vague.

Signal	What it means	What you fix
Brand mentions	Whether an engine names your brand in the answer.	Add direct category language, product pages, comparison content, and third-party mentions.
AI citations	Whether the answer cites or links to a Foglift-controlled source URL.	Create sourceable pages with clear headings, tables, FAQ schema, and dated evidence.
Position	Where your brand appears when the answer lists multiple options.	Improve comparison pages, category pages, and proof points for high-intent prompts.
Sentiment	Whether the engine describes the brand positively, neutrally, or negatively.	Publish proof, address objections, and keep pricing and capabilities consistent.
Competitor mentions	Which competing domains win when your brand is absent.	Build comparison-ready content and earn mentions from the same sources engines already cite.

Why multi-engine tracking matters

Foglift's research shows that AI citation behavior fragments by engine. A brand can be visible in one answer system and absent in another.

1,119

distinct cited domains

Foglift's Q2 2026 benchmark found that AI answers pull from a wide and fragmented source set.

61.7%

engine-exclusive top-25 domains

The same benchmark found most top source domains were top-25 sources in only one engine.

46/100

median AI Readiness Score

Foglift's Q2 2026 readiness study found most sites were technically strong but weak for AI extraction.

AI search tracking FAQ

Direct answers for the phrases buyers ask AI engines.

How does Foglift track brand mentions in AI search?

Foglift runs customer-intent prompts against AI engines, records whether your brand is mentioned, captures position and sentiment, and compares the answer against tracked competitors.

Which AI engines does Foglift monitor?

Foglift monitors ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overview, Gemini, and Claude. Free accounts measure all six AI Visibility tiers against Google AI Overview with weekly automated scans, plus manual checks any time. Paid plans add the other four engines and faster cadence.

What is the difference between a brand mention and an AI citation?

A brand mention means the answer names your brand. An AI citation means the answer also cites or links to a source URL, which is stronger evidence that the engine can retrieve and trust a specific page.

How is AI Visibility different from a Technical Audit?

A Technical Audit checks whether a page is ready to be crawled and cited. AI Visibility checks whether real engines actually mention, cite, and rank your brand for the prompts buyers use.
