Is your brand the answer when buyers ask AI?

When someone asks ChatGPT, Perplexity or Gemini "what's the best [your category]," an answer comes back with three or four brand names in it. If you're not one of them, you never find out — the customer simply goes elsewhere. We measure exactly where you stand in AI answers, and do the work to get you named more often.

The shift

Ranking on Google and being recommended by AI have become two different problems.

For twenty years, the game was ranking on Google. That's changing fast. A growing share of buyers now open ChatGPT or Perplexity instead of a search bar — and those engines don't return ten blue links. They return a short list of named recommendations.

You can be #1 on Google and absent from every AI answer in your category. Most brands have no idea it's happening — there's no dashboard that says "you were left out of 60% of AI recommendations this month." That's the gap we close.

We measure

We run hundreds of real buyer questions across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google's AI Overview, and record exactly where you appear — and where competitors appear instead.

We diagnose

We find the specific pages the engines cite in your category, the queries you're losing, and why you're being left out. Not a vague score — a named list of what to fix.

We fix

We do the work that gets you cited: the content, the review-platform presence, the third-party pages the engines actually pull from. The part the tools leave you to figure out alone.

What we don't do

We don't run your ads. We don't rebuild your website. We don't do SEO in the old sense, and we don't take a percentage of your ad spend. We do one thing: get your brand named when buyers ask AI for a recommendation. That focus is the whole point.

The offer

One audit. Five days. A fixed price. No retainer required to start.

We lead with the audit on purpose — a low-risk way to find out whether you have a real problem before anyone talks about ongoing work. Most brands discover they're missing from far more AI answers than they expected.

About

A research desk for the age of AI recommendations.

The Citation Desk exists because a real shift caught most of the marketing world flat-footed. Buyers started asking AI what to buy, AI started answering with a short list of names, and almost no one built the tools or the discipline to find out who was on those lists and who wasn't.

We do one thing, narrowly and well: we measure which brands get recommended when people ask AI, and we do the work to change the answer. We publish our findings openly, as a monthly index, because in a field this new the fastest way to earn trust is to show the data before asking for anything.

We show our work.Every index publishes its full method and prompts.
We sell decisions.The deliverable is what to do — and the doing of it. Not a dashboard.
We'd rather tell you there's no problemthan sell you a fix you don't need.
