When AI recommends a firm like yours, is it you? And can you prove what it said?
Every AI-visibility tool hands you a citation score. We hand you the receipt: the exact words ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI gave when your buyers asked, timestamped and SHA-256 signed. A number you can defend in the room, not just quote. Most firms find they are cited in 0 of 8 buyer questions.
A 2026 randomized field experiment (ISB / Carnegie Mellon, 1,065 users) found organic clicks fall 39.8% when an AI Overview appears: buyers read the answer and never click through. This is competitive intelligence for the AI-answer layer -- the visibility your web analytics won't show you. It works alongside your existing SEO and Google Business Profile, not against them. Every result is the verbatim AI answer, SHA-256 signed. The AI Visibility Readiness (AVR) Framework powering the scoring is published openly at chudi.dev/framework.

01 /ProblemAI answers are not AI links
Why can't your analytics stack see the answer a buyer just read?
GA4 shows zero sessions and rank trackers show blue links. Neither one tells you when Claude recommends a competitor, Perplexity cites an outdated docs page, or Gemini omits your category entirely. AI assistants are now the buyer's first stop -- and a 2026 randomized field experiment (ISB / Carnegie Mellon, 1,065 users) found that when an AI Overview appears, organic clicks fall 39.8% with no measurable gain in click quality. Your existing analytics stack is blind to all of it.

which vector database should I use for a multi-tenant SaaS with 40M embeddings?

I'd compare Weaviate and Qdrant. Both support namespace isolation and hybrid search. Pricing starts around $500/mo self-hosted.

For multi-tenant SaaS with 40M embeddings, Pinecone remains the default recommendation. Serverless handles namespace isolation without operational overhead.

05 /FAQcommon questions
Frequently asked questions
What is AVR?
AVR stands for AI Visibility Readiness. It is a 0-100 score that tells you whether ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini are actually mentioning, recommending, or citing your brand when buyers ask the questions your category gets. It rolls up live AI test results into one number your whole team can read.
How is this different from Ahrefs, Semrush, or Google Analytics?
Traditional SEO tools measure clicks, impressions, and rank in blue links. We measure what AI assistants actually say to your buyers. Ahrefs sees the keyword universe but cannot tell you whether Claude recommended you yesterday. A 2026 randomized experiment (ISB / Carnegie Mellon) found that Google AI Overviews reduce organic clicks 39.8% with no compensating gain in click quality -- a signal that lives entirely outside any blue-link analytics tool. We test the AI output directly, then save the verbatim answer with a tamper-proof tag.
Which AI models do you test?
ChatGPT (OpenAI), Claude (Anthropic), Perplexity, and Gemini (Google). Each query runs across all four models. You get a per-model breakdown plus an aggregate score, so you can see exactly which AI surfaces are recommending you and which are skipping you entirely.
Do I need to commit to a subscription?
Not for the reports. The Visibility, Citations, and Full Audit tiers are one-time purchases: you get the report, the receipts, and the prioritized fix list, and re-run whenever you want a fresh snapshot. The only subscription is the optional AI Visibility Monitoring plan ($49/month, cancel anytime).

MEASUREMENT
How to measure your AI citation rate
Free 2-minute scan, the manual 20-query test, and real baselines from 7 domains.

CRAWL
What AI crawlers actually see
The rendering gap between your page and the text an AI crawler extracts from it.

The 0% ChatGPT citation trap
Why a perfect-looking page can still earn zero AI citations, and the calibration that proves it.
SCHEMA
Which schema markup AI actually uses
We tested 10 JSON-LD types across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude. Three drive most citations.
