How to use the AI Citation Quality Scorer

Read what the guide says

This is the AI Citation Quality Scorer.

It scores how strongly the AI answers you paste recommend your brand.

Being mentioned is not the same as being recommended.

A clear first recommendation is worth far more than a line saying other options include you.

Paste the answers you got, with a line of three dashes between them.

Or press Fill in an example, for sample answers about made-up agencies.

Enter your brand name, then press Score the answers.

Here, the average is sixty-four out of a hundred.

It is our measure of position, detail, strength and a link to your site.

These boxes show how many answers name you, recommend you strongly, and link to your site.

Here, the answer marked ChatGPT puts Acme Digital first, recommends it strongly and links it.

The one marked Perplexity names it last, with a hedge, so it scores much lower.

The tips under each answer say what lowers the score.

Here, the answer hedges about you, with the words although and slow.

So find where that comes from, such as old reviews, and answer it with current facts.

You also see the other brands the answers name, and how often.

To raise it, show clear services, place and proof on your site, and keep your listings consistent.

Ask the same questions every month to follow the trend.

You can also email yourself a PDF of the result.

Copy the whole answer. A first line such as "ChatGPT" or "Perplexity" labels it. Up to 8 answers.

About the AI Citation Quality Scorer

Being mentioned is not the same as being recommended. "Acme is the top choice for local SEO in Pune, with 200+ reviews" is worth far more than "other options include Acme". Paste one or more AI answers and your brand name, and we score each mention out of 100: where it appears and its rank in a list, how much the answer says about you, how strongly it recommends you, the tone, and whether your site is linked. You also see the other brands each answer names. Your scores are kept in your browser, so you can follow the trend.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini or Google your buyers' question and copy the answers. Separate answers with a line of three dashes (---); a first line such as "ChatGPT" labels the answer.

  2. Step 2

    Enter your brand name, and optionally your website and the competitors to compare.

  3. Step 3

    Read the score for each answer, what lowers it, and how you compare with the other brands named.

How the score works

Position (up to 25 points: first in the answer or the list scores most), depth (up to 30: what you do, where, and with what proof), strength (up to 30: "best" and "highly recommended" score more than a neutral mention; hedges such as "however" or "mixed reviews" score less) and a link to your site (15).

Tracking over time

Each result is saved in your browser, never on our server. Check the same questions in the same assistants every month to see whether answers recommend you more strongly.

Frequently asked questions

Why paste answers instead of checking automatically?

Answers differ by assistant, location and wording, and checking them automatically needs paid access to each AI service. Pasting the answers you see keeps the tool free and shows exactly what your buyers see.

How do I separate several answers?

Put a line with three dashes (---) between them. If the first line of an answer is the assistant's name, such as "Perplexity", it is used as the label.

What is a good score?

Above 70 means the answer recommends you clearly. 40 to 70 is a mention with some detail. Below 40 is a passing mention, or none.

How do I raise my score?

Answers repeat what sources say about you. Clear services, location and proof on your site, consistent facts on listings, and reviews and mentions on the sites answers cite all make stronger recommendations more likely.
