Where answers come from

AI doesn’t make up the shortlist. It reads it somewhere.

Behind every AI answer are a few pages: a roundup, a review site, an industry article. If those pages describe your rivals and not you, the answer does too.

The buyer

“What are the best tools for this?”

They trust the answer, and rarely open the sources below it.

Hears your name
The answer engine

“Let me check what trusted pages say.”

It pulls a few pages and repeats how they describe each brand.

Cites the page
The source page

“Here are the top options in this space…”

One accurate line about you here travels into every answer that reads it.

Mentions you

Be on the page the answer is built from, and you are in the answer’s raw material.

The difference

Not links for links’ sake. Mentions where AI looks.

Classic link building chases authority. Citation building chases the exact pages answer engines read.

Where answers come from

Every AI answer has sources. We put you in them.

The line that names a brand comes from the pages cited underneath. Here is a sample answer, traced back to its sources.

Which project tool suits a mid-size agency?

For agencies of 20 to 100 people, three tools come up most often. Competitor A is a common choice for larger teams that need deep reporting14. Your Brand is described as a workflow tool for mid-size agencies, with simple client approvals23. Competitor B is often recommended on a tighter budget1.

Your line comes from sources 2 and 3.The two pages that describe you. Sources 1 and 4 are where we would go next.

Sample answer with invented sources. Engines choose their own sources and answers vary, so no one can promise a mention. Being on the pages they cite makes it far more likely.

Where we build citations

Four kinds of page engines keep citing.

Best-of roundups

We get you added to the lists engines cite for “best X”, described accurately.

Comparison pages

Your brand in the “X vs Y” and alternatives pages, with the right facts in the table.

Review platforms

A complete, accurate profile on the review sites cited for “alternatives to” prompts.

Industry publications

A mention in the explainers engines cite for the problem you solve.

Where you show up

On the page. Then in the answer.

Answers are built from a handful of pages. Being mentioned on those pages is what gets you named. Type your brand to see it.

FAQ

Questions before you start

Link building targets sites that pass authority for rankings. Citation building targets the specific sources answer engines retrieve for your category, which are often roundups, review sites and communities. A citation does not always need a link to help.
We run your category prompts across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and AI Overviews and record every source cited beneath the answers. The most frequently cited become the target list.
No one can guarantee that; answer engines are non-deterministic and change often. Placements on the sources they cite make being named much more likely, and we re-check your prompts so you can see what moved.
Any placement removed within 90 days is replaced, or refunded if we cannot replace it.
No. Each engine leans on its own mix of sources, and the mix changes by category and over time. That is why we run your prompts across the engines first, instead of buying from a fixed list of sites.
