What is Local AI Visibility?

Local AI Visibility shows you how your business shows up when people ask AI platforms like ChatGPT, Google AI Overview, and Google AI Mode for a recommendation.

Instead of one blended score, Local AI Visibility breaks your performance down by platform, prompt type and each individual prompt, so you can see exactly where you're being recommended, where you're not, and why.

Here is a breakdown of each section in Local AI Visibility:

Platforms

How your visibility score, mention rate, share of voice, and average position breaks down across each AI platform. You can filter this by platform and by prompt type.

The first time you check, results are shown as a bar chart; from your second check onward, you'll see a trend chart so you can track how your Local AI Visibility has changed over time.

Prompts

The individual queries being tracked for your Location, and how you’re performing on each one across visibility score, mention rate, share of voice and average position.

Competitors

How your visibility score, average position, mention rate, and share of voice compare against other local businesses.

AI sources

The websites that AI platforms are citing when they answer your tracked prompts, how many times they've been cited, and which AI platforms have mentioned them.
