Why AI Search Visibility Matters
AI-driven search results are everywhere. Chatbots, AI Overviews, large language models – they all shape what people see. When your customer asks Alexa, Bard, or ChatGPT about a product, which names pop up? If none, you lose trust. You lose clicks. You lose sales.
AI search is growing fast. And with growth comes competition. Suddenly, tracking brand mentions AI isn’t a “nice-to-have.” It’s essential.
The Rise of AI Overviews
- AI Overviews surface at the top of search pages.
- They summarise content, answer questions, compare products.
- They decide who gets the spotlight.
You want your brand listed in those summaries. Every overlooked mention is revenue leaking away. Every missed citation is a lost lead.
The Gap in Traditional Tools
Classic SEO platforms focus on web pages, backlinks, or social chatter. They shine at keyword rank or domain authority. But they struggle with narrative-based AI outputs.
- No context. They can’t tell you how an LLM describes your product.
- No mention data. They don’t show how often your name pops in AI summaries.
- No competitor breakdown. You can’t compare who wins the AI spotlight.
And that’s where we step in.
The Problem for Small Teams
Small teams juggle ten roles at once. You’re marketing, sales, IT support, and barista. You don’t have an army of analysts. You don’t want layers of training. You want straightforward insights.
Here’s what many small teams face:
- Zero visibility into AI-generated mentions.
- Complex dashboards built for enterprise.
- High subscription fees for features they barely use.
They need a tool that speaks their language. A tool that tracks brand mentions AI without jargon. A tool that’s affordable.
Comparing Traditional Analytics vs AI Visibility Tracker
Let’s compare a big-name platform like Adthena with our open-source AI Visibility Tracker.
| Feature | Adthena (Enterprise) | AI Visibility Tracker (SME-Friendly) |
|---|---|---|
| Brand mention tracking in LLM | Yes, but pricey and complex | Yes, simple interface for novices |
| Customisable industry reports | Advanced, needs expert setup | Standard templates, easy to use |
| Pricing | Enterprise tiers | Transparent, pay-as-you-grow |
| Open-source | No | Fully open code; community-driven |
| Support | Dedicated (but slow queues) | Community + lean support team |
Sure, Adthena shines with deep market-share insights. It offers AIO impact quantification for paid and organic channels. But small teams pay for what they don’t need. Meanwhile, our AI Visibility Tracker puts brand mentions AI front and centre. No fluff. No hidden fees.
