Prove AI is reading your brand. With data, not a guess.
Leadership is already asking whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini can see your brand. citAEOtion shows you exactly which AI engines crawl your site, which pages they read, and which they skip, straight from your own server traffic.
Google Analytics can't tell you if AI sees you.
Most AI crawlers do not run JavaScript, so they never show up in GA. The work your team is doing to win AI answers is invisible in the one dashboard everyone checks. You are flying blind on the channel your boss keeps asking about.
The prompt-tracker trap
× You buy a bucket of sample "prompts."
× A tool asks an AI those questions and guesses if your brand showed up.
× You report a score with no traffic behind it.
× When leadership asks "is that real?", you have nothing to point to.
The citAEOtion way
✓ Install one plugin on your site.
✓ Every AI crawler that hits your pages is logged at the source.
✓ Each bot is classified: training, search, assistant, scraper.
✓ You show the team the actual bots, the actual pages, live.
What your team actually gets
Which engines read you
GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, Bingbot, and more, classified by what they do with your content.
Per-page coverage
See which pages AI takes and which it ignores, so your content team knows exactly where to work.
Catch what GA misses
Server-level tracking, no JavaScript dependency. You see the crawler hits analytics never records.
Trend over time
Watch AI interest climb as you publish, and tie crawl spikes to the content and PR you shipped.
Email alerts
Get notified when new engines start crawling you, or when a key bot drops off.
Export for reporting
Pull the raw data to CSV and drop real numbers into the deck you take to leadership.
Turn "I think it's working" into a chart.
The hardest part of AI-visibility work is proving it moved. citAEOtion gives you the before-and-after the channel has been missing: real crawler activity, by engine and by page, that lines up with the content you shipped. Walk into the review with evidence, not a vibe.
We were guessing whether our content was landing in AI answers. The first time we saw GPTBot and PerplexityBot actually crawling the pages we rewrote, the whole conversation with leadership changed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I cancel citAEOtion anytime?
Yes. citAEOtion is month to month - cancel whenever, no contract. Your data stays available for 30 days after cancellation so you can export anything you still need.
Can I share citAEOtion reports with leadership?
Yes. Export the data to CSV to drop real numbers into your own deck, or send the live dashboard. The figures come from actual server traffic, so they are easy to explain and hold up when leadership asks "is that real?"
Do I need a developer to set up citAEOtion?
No. It is one WordPress plugin: install it, paste your key, and you are done in about five minutes. The site appears in your dashboard the moment the key is saved - no code, no tag manager, no engineering ticket.
How is citAEOtion different from a prompt tracker?
Prompt trackers guess your visibility by asking an AI a list of sample questions you picked and reporting whether your brand showed up. citAEOtion shows the real, timestamped bot hits in your own server traffic - which AI crawlers read which pages, and when. Real data, not inference.
How is citAEOtion different from Google Analytics for AI?
Google Analytics runs on JavaScript, and most AI crawlers do not execute JavaScript - Vercel found no JavaScript execution across 500 million-plus GPTBot fetches - so their visits never appear in GA. citAEOtion reads your server traffic directly, so you see the AI bots GA structurally cannot.
Will citAEOtion slow my site down?
No. The collector records crawler requests at the server level and fires after the page is served, so it adds no front-end JavaScript and no page weight for your human visitors. Their experience is untouched.
