AI Search Visibility Checker — Free Across ChatGPT, Perplexity & Google AI
The most affordable AI search visibility checker on the market. Start free, upgrade for $9.
AIRanked is a free AI search visibility checker that tests your brand across 4 AI engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overview) with live API calls, not scraped cache. 3 free checks on signup; $9 for 100 top-up credits.
Why an AI Search Visibility Checker (not a general SEO tool)?
AI search is now ~13% of Google queries (Semrush, March 2025) and growing. Traditional SEO tools track the old ranking layer. AI search visibility is a separate signal: whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI Overview actually cite you when users ask questions. You need a tool built for this layer.

Frequently asked questions
What is an AI Search Visibility Checker?
An AI Search Visibility Checker measures whether AI search engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overview) cite your brand when users ask category-level questions. It's the AI-search counterpart of a traditional Google rank tracker — except AI engines surface brands as conversational recommendations, not as blue-link rankings, so the measurement requires a different methodology.
How is it different from a general SEO rank tracker?
A Google rank tracker (Ahrefs, Semrush's classic toolkit, SERanking) shows you what position your URL holds on the 10-blue-links SERP. That signal is becoming a minority of clicks as AI Overviews and ChatGPT-style answers take share. An AI Search Visibility Checker measures the NEW signal: whether your brand is recommended inside the AI-generated answer itself.
Which AI engines does AIRanked check?
ChatGPT (OpenAI's GPT-4/5 family via live API), Perplexity (native API with real citations), Claude (Anthropic Sonnet/Opus with web search), and Google AI Overview (live SERP signals). Checks run in parallel so the full audit completes in 15-25 seconds.
How does the pricing compare to Semrush or Profound?
Semrush's AI Visibility Toolkit is $99/mo per domain (25 tracked prompts). Profound starts at $99/mo self-serve. AthenaHQ is $295/mo. AIRanked is pay-as-you-go: 3 free full checks on signup, then $9 for 200 credits (= 100 full checks or 200 AIO-only checks). No monthly commitment.
Is my data private?
We don't store your brand queries or the check results after your session. No account data is sold or shared. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Can I use this for local businesses?
Yes. Local businesses see particularly divergent results across engines — Google AI Overview weights Maps and reviews heavily, while ChatGPT and Claude default to training-data-era national brands. Running a visibility check shows you which channel to invest in (local SEO vs. earned media).
