Track your AI share-of-model.
See how often the AI engines name and cite your brand, then run it again yourself over the weeks to watch the trend. Each run queries the provider APIs, Claude (Anthropic), ChatGPT (OpenAI), Gemini, and Perplexity, which can differ from the consumer apps, and records whether you are named and cited. Here “share-of-model” means the share of those engines that mention or cite you in this check, a small sample, not a full survey.
What is AI Visibility Monitor?
The AI Visibility Monitor is a free, bring-your-own-key tool that runs one brand-description snapshot across Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity and records whether each engine names and cites your brand. Here share-of-model means the share of the answering engines that name or cite you.
You rerun the snapshot yourself over time, and it charts the trend across your own runs.
How it works
You enter your brand (and optionally your domain) and connect your own API keys; the tool sends one fixed prompt, essentially "what do you know about this company?", to each engine and records whether each one names your brand and whether it cites your domain in its sources. There is no query list or background scheduler in the free tool: you run it again yourself whenever you like, and each run is saved so you can watch your share-of-model trend across your runs.
Who it’s for
For marketers, SEO/GEO teams, and business owners who need to know whether AI assistants recognize them. The outcome is a clear, trackable signal of AI visibility, so you can spot when you drop out of answers, prove that content or GEO work is moving the needle, and decide where to focus next.
In practice
A local HVAC company runs the snapshot for its brand. In the first run, ChatGPT names the company but Gemini and Perplexity don't; a share-of-model of one in three answering engines.
After publishing GEO-optimized service pages, the team reruns it weeks later and the chart shows the brand named in three of the engines, so they know the work paid off.
Named and cited, engine by engine.
Add a Claude, OpenAI, or Gemini key to generate your brief. A Perplexity key can be added alongside for retrieval, but Perplexity alone cannot generate the brief (used once for your request, never stored). Add your domain to also check whether you are cited as a source, citations come back by default from Perplexity; for Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini, citation detection depends on each provider’s web-search/grounding mode. Run it again yourself whenever you like; each snapshot stores your brand, domain, the per-engine named/cited status, the models used, and a one-way hashed visitor identifier so your trend stays yours. It never stores your keys and never runs anything in the background. Prefer it tracked for you? The managed monitoring option below runs the same check on a schedule using our keys.
Use your own API keys : used once for your request, never stored on our servers
Keys travel over HTTPS to our server, which calls each AI provider for this one request, then discards them. Each snapshot we save holds your brand, domain, per-engine named/cited status, the models used, and a one-way hashed visitor id, never your keys. Want this run for you automatically every week? Talk to us.
We’ll monitor it for you, every month.
Skip the API keys. We run the check on our own engines each month and email you a one-page report; your AI recommendation rate, what moved since last month, and the exact buyer questions where a competitor is winning. Free, and unsubscribe in one click.
We run the check on our managed engine keys, you never share an API key. Double opt-in: one confirmation email, nothing more until you click it. Snapshots vary run to run; the monthly trend is the signal. Unsubscribe anytime.
Questions, answered.
Yes, the tool is free; you bring your own API key for the AI engines you want to check. Any usage costs are determined by your provider account, not by NYFTY Labs.
Yes, this is a BYOK tool, so you supply your own API key to run the checks. Your API key is sent over HTTPS to NYFTY's server only to make the request(s) for that single run, is never logged or stored, and is discarded immediately after.
AI Visibility Monitor tracks brand mentions across Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity where your supplied access allows. Results depend on the models and endpoints available through your API key or provider account.
Each run sends one fixed brand-description prompt ("What do you know about this company?") to every engine you added a key for, then records which engines named you and which cited your domain. There is no query list and no background scheduler in the free tool: you rerun it yourself, and the chart shows the trend across your own runs. (Want it run on a schedule with query lists? That is the managed monitoring option.)
It outputs a share-of-model reading, the share of the engines that answered which named or cited you, plus a separate qualitative "AI read" score, and a trend across your repeated runs. Use it to spot changes in AI visibility, compare engines, and identify where your content or PR may need improvement.
Being named means the AI answer mentions your brand in the response. Being cited means your domain appears in the sources the engine returned; a brand can be named without being cited. (When the domain shows up in the answer text but not in the returned sources, we flag that separately as a weaker signal, not a citation.)
Your API keys are never stored; they are used once for the run and discarded. Each saved snapshot stores your brand name, domain, the per-engine named/cited status, which models were used, and a one-way hashed visitor identifier so your trend stays yours. It never stores your keys and never runs anything in the background.
AI answers can vary because models are probabilistic, prompts may be interpreted differently, and provider systems change over time. Treat the monitor as a directional visibility tracker, not a guarantee of rankings, citations, or inclusion in AI answers.
