More and more questions get resolved without a click.
People read the answer and decide right there. Your brand needs to be inside that text, not just in the list below it.
AI visibility
Your customers don't search anymore. They ask AI. Does it answer with your name?
AI visibility measures whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Google mention and cite you when someone asks about what you sell. AEON42 tracks it every week, shows you who shows up instead of you, and tells you what to change to become the answer.

The shift
From ten links to a single answer.
In classic search, position seven still had a chance: someone scrolled down and clicked. In an AI answer, the engine reads many pages, writes one answer and cites a handful of sources. If you're not among them, you don't exist for that question.

AI answers vary from one run to the next; that's why AEON42 measures repeatedly and shows you the trend, not a snapshot.
Why now
The metric that will sit next to organic traffic.
For twenty years the question was “what position am I in?”. The question coming next is “does AI recommend me?”. Three reasons to start measuring it today:
An answer concentrates attention on a handful of names.
Where there used to be ten spots, there are now three or four citations. They go to whoever is already prepared.
It can be measured today, and almost nobody does.
Brands that start measuring now will have months of trend data when everyone else is still wondering where to begin.
Our bet
Within the next 12 to 24 months, “how often AI cites you” will sit on the same dashboard as organic traffic and conversions. We built AEON42 so it's already there for you today.
The full loop
Measuring isn't enough. AEON42 closes the loop.
A percentage without context doesn't tell anyone what to do on Monday. That's why AI visibility lives inside a loop: you measure, understand, act, and check whether it worked.

FAQ
What everyone asks about AI visibility
What is AI visibility?
How often AI assistants (Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude) mention and cite you when someone asks about what you sell. It's made of five signals: mention, citation, position among the sources, share of voice against your competitors, and perception (what AI says about you).
How is it different from SEO?
SEO aims to rank a link in the results list. AI visibility measures whether the answer AI writes names you and cites your site. They share foundations (useful content, a crawlable site, structured data), which is why AEON42 measures them together.
Is it the same as GEO or AEO?
GEO (generative engine optimization) and AEO (answer engine optimization) are names for the discipline: what you do to improve. AI visibility is the result you measure.
Is the data real or estimated?
Real. AEON42 asks each engine your questions and reads the answer it returns. Because AI answers change from one run to the next, we measure repeatedly and show the trend.
Which engines does each plan measure?
Solo measures Google's two AI answers: AI Overviews and AI Mode. Studio and Agency add ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude. Everything is measured weekly, and a handful of critical questions daily.
Can I improve my AI visibility?
Yes, though no one can guarantee what a model will answer. What works is preparing the ground: letting in the crawlers that decide answers, publishing content that answers the question clearly, marking up your site with structured data, and earning mentions in the sources AI already cites. AEON42 tells you which of those actions applies in each case and measures whether it worked.
