GEO / AEO tracking
Track your brand vs competitors in every AI answer

Get cited by AI — not just ranked by search.

CiteTail tracks where your content gets quoted across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and AI Overviews, and tells you what to change to win the next citation.

Same shift, two names

GEO and AEO are the same idea, from two directions.

GEO — Generative Engine Optimization

Optimizing for the model

Structuring and writing content so generative AI models are more likely to draw on it when composing an answer — the content side of the shift.

AEO — Answer Engine Optimization

Optimizing for the answer

Making sure your brand shows up in the direct answer itself — on ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI Overviews — rather than a ranked list of links.

Whichever term your team uses, CiteTail tracks the same outcome: whether your content is the one an AI engine chooses to cite, quote, or link back to.

"Search traffic isn't disappearing — it's moving inside the answer. Most teams have no idea if they're still the source."

No visibility into AI citations

GA4 measures clicks, not whether your page was the source behind an AI-generated answer.

Competitors pull ahead quietly

If a rival gets cited instead of you, there's no alert — until their pipeline shows it.

Optimization is guesswork

Classic SEO tactics don't map cleanly onto what makes an LLM quote you.
