Are you found by AI?v1.2

Are you found by AI? v1.2 is an auditing tool specializing in business visibility within the generative artificial intelligence ecosystem. Developed by Tech Horizon Labs, this application allows companies and marketing professionals to understand how their brands are positioned in responses from advanced language models such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google’s AI (Gemini). Its primary function is to analyze whether a business is recommended when users perform specific local queries, identifying both suggested competitors and the technical factors limiting its presence in these new answer engines.

The platform's operation is based on an in-depth analysis using a framework of six critical signals to determine AI search engine positioning:

• Citability: Measures the business's ability to be referenced and cited as a reliable source by AI models.
• Brand and Entity: Evaluates the level of recognition of the company as a unique and coherent entity across the web.
• E-E-A-T: Analyzes the experience, expertise, authoritativeness, and trustworthiness of the online information associated with the business.
• Technical Factors: Reviews website optimization to facilitate access for AI crawlers.
• Schema Markup: Checks the implementation of structured data that helps AI understand the business context.
• Platform Signals: Identifies specific requirements that each AI model prioritizes for its recommendations.

Unlike other generic rank trackers, Are you found by AI? v1.2 stands out for its focus on local visibility by geographic area. This is critical, as tools like Gemini and ChatGPT process recommendations based on the user's location. The technology behind this application performs an audit of over 30 different signals and interacts with global knowledge bases like Wikidata and the Google Knowledge Graph to verify brand authority in the semantic web.

For businesses looking to improve their AI Optimization (AIO) strategy, this tool offers a practical diagnosis that goes beyond a simple data dashboard. The system makes it possible to visualize which competitors are capturing traffic from conversational queries and provides a roadmap to correct deficiencies in the company's digital footprint. It is a solution designed to adapt to the search paradigm shift, where users no longer just consult lists of links but instead expect direct recommendations from their devices and computers. Currently, the tool primarily operates in English and is optimized for analyzing markets with data structures similar to the Australian market.
