AI Visibility Scan
Customers now ask ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini who to hire. When they ask for the best in your category, does AI name your brand, or a rival’s? We ask all three, with web search on, and show you exactly what they say.
- Who AI names instead of youThe real customer questions we asked, and the brand each AI sent them to.
- What AI thinks of youWe ask each assistant for its opinion of your brand and quote the answer.
- You against your top rivalEngine by engine, who comes up first.
How the AI Visibility Scan works
We read your website for your category and the services your locations offer. Then we write the questions a customer near your locations would type into an AI assistant, like “best plumber in Austin”. None of them mention your brand, because customers who already know your name aren’t the ones you’re losing.
We ask ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini every question with web search turned on, the way customers use them. A separate model reads each answer and records whether your brand came up, how high, and which brands were named instead. Then we ask each assistant directly what it thinks of your brand.
How the score works
Your score runs from 0 to 100 and higher is better. Most of it comes from how often you are named and how high in the answer: first counts most, then early, then anywhere in the list. The rest comes from how many of the three assistants name you at all. Positive or negative wording moves it a little either way.
Rival brands are scored the same way from the same answers, so the brand you are up against is measured on the same scale as you.
- Unseen · 0 to 14AI doesn’t name your brand at all. Every customer who asks gets sent to another brand.
- Rookie · 15 to 39AI has heard of you, but the jobs go to the brands it names first.
- Contender · 40 to 69You show up some of the time. Rival brands still win the answers that matter.
- Pro · 70 to 100AI already puts you near the top. Now the job is keeping your owners there.
Questions
Is the AI Visibility Scan free?
Yes. Enter your brand name, website and where your locations are, leave a first name and email while the scan runs, and your result opens on the page. It usually takes one to three minutes.
Why does AI visibility matter for a franchise brand?
More customers now ask an AI assistant who to hire instead of scrolling search results, and the assistant usually names only a few businesses. If it names a rival brand, your owners never get the call. Showing up in those answers makes every location’s customers cheaper.
What location should I enter?
Enter the city and state of a market where you have locations, like Austin, TX, to see what customers there are told. Enter Nationwide to scan the country as a whole. You can run a second scan for another market.
Are the answers real?
Yes. Every brand, quote and verdict comes from a real answer that ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini gave during your scan. AI answers change from day to day, so treat the result as a snapshot, not a permanent ranking.
How do I get my brand recommended more often?
AI assistants lean on what the web says about you: consistent location pages, reviews, local listings and articles that name your brand next to your category. Request a quote and we’ll show you where your system stands and what we would fix first.
