AEO and AI visibility tools

Tools for answer engine optimisation: trackers that record how ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI features mention and cite you, plus crawler analytics, content and schema tools. Each listing links the public pages its details come from.

74 tools in 6 categories

AEO tools

AEO tools sort into a few groups by the job they do, and this directory files them the same way:

Start from the question you need answered rather than from a feature list. "Can the crawlers reach our pages?" is a question for server logs, not a tracker. "Are we cited when people ask about our category?" needs a tracker, or a spreadsheet and an afternoon. "Is this page clear enough to quote?" is an editing question.

No tool sees inside an answer engine. Tools observe what engines return, or what crawlers request, and report patterns. That makes the method the thing to check before the price: which engines, how prompts are chosen, how often they run, and whether you can export the raw answers.

AI visibility tools

"AI visibility tools" usually means the trackers: products that measure how often AI assistants mention a brand, which sources they cite and how the brand compares with competitors. They send prompts to engines such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Mode, store the answers, and turn them into scores and trends.

The numbers are samples, so read them with the method in view:

  • Answers vary. The same prompt can produce different answers from one run to the next, and by location, language and account. One run is an anecdote; a trend over weeks is evidence.
  • Collection matters. Some tools query an engine's API and some record the answer a person sees in the app. The two can differ, so ask which one a tool reports.
  • The prompt set is the measurement. A share-of-voice score describes the prompts you chose as much as your brand. Write prompts from real customer questions and keep them fixed so results stay comparable.
  • Ask for the raw data. A tool that exports each answer and its citations lets you check a score against what was actually said.

Compare products in AI visibility trackers, and read LLM visibility for what these measurements can and cannot tell you.
