AuditAE
AuditAE is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform that monitors brand citations across major AI engines, including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Gemini. It enables businesses to see whether these AI systems mention or cite their brand in response to user prompts relevant to their products or services. The tool aims to provide visibility into how AI models recommend brands, offering insights that go beyond traditional search engine rankings. The service works by allowing users to define specific prompts that their target audience might ask, such as branded, category, or comparison queries. AuditAE then runs these prompts across multiple AI engines simultaneously, captures the full answers, detects brand mentions, and records every URL citation. Users receive a citation report showing whether their brand was cited, mentioned without a link, or absent, along with information on competitors who appeared instead. Additionally, the platform captures Google keyword rankings and Core Web Vitals, providing a holistic view of online visibility. AuditAE provides a citation rate metric, calculated as the share of prompt–engine combinations where the user's brand earns a citation. It offers benchmark thresholds (below 20% low, 20–50% developing, 50–75% strong, above 75% authority) to help users assess performance. The platform is designed for continuous tracking over time, allowing users to see if content and schema changes improve AI visibility. Pricing starts at $0.05 per check, with $5 in free credits for new sign-ups and an instant free check without signup.
