User guide: how AI Cite Who works

Create a project, choose the questions, run the check, and turn the resulting evidence into concrete website and third-party actions.

01

Add your website and run the free analysis

Create a project with your public website URL. We crawl its public pages and return a prioritized baseline covering access, identity, offering, proof, indexability prerequisites, and machine-readable signals.

02

Review the buyer questions

Generate questions from your website category or add your own. Activate only the questions real buyers would ask while discovering, comparing, or validating options, then save the set once.

Decision questionsChoose what buyers really ask
☑ Best tool for a small team?
☑ Which option has transparent pricing?
☐ What is this brand?
Save question selection

Checked questions move to the top after saving.

03

Select a scope and see the price before running

Choose one or more active questions for this audit. The page shows the exact credit cost before you start; unselected questions are not run or charged.

At least one question is required. Only checked questions are charged.

04

Confirm alternatives and open the finished report

If new comparable products are detected, approve or reject them first. The report then shows recommendations, mentions, observable decision criteria, query decomposition, provider-returned searches, and cited public pages.

Your saved competitors may appear zero times; new options can appear instead.

05

Complete the actions and check again

Use the final plan to update specific pages, add missing facts, create comparison coverage, or participate transparently on eligible observed sources. Run the same selected questions again only when you want a new measurement.

Add a verifiable plan comparison
Third party · relevant community
Participate only when its rules allow

Finish the task, then run the same question again when you need a new measurement.

What the method does not establish

It does not promise that a content change will produce a recommendation, prove that a cited page caused an answer, expose private conversations, or identify a model's complete training sources.

Free baseline and paid audit

Free accounts receive an evidence-backed public website baseline. Paid plans currently add ChatGPT decision questions, recommendation visibility, competitor analysis, observable searches and citations, an advanced action report, and history within their documented limits.

Choosing a product or auditing your brand?

Shopping advice helps an individual choose products for personal preferences. AI Cite Who helps a website owner check whether ChatGPT puts their brand forward for selected buyer questions and inspect the public sources returned with those answers. Start with public website analysis, then paid question checks and evidence-linked tasks; this does not reveal the model’s internal reasons.

I want help choosing software

A buyer asks which software fits a team’s needs and budget. Shopping advice helps them compare options and choose a product.

I want to audit my brand’s recommendations

A website owner selects buyer questions, checks whether their brand is recommended and reviews the saved answers, cited sources and specific improvement tasks. The website baseline is free within its limits; recommendation checks use paid credits.

Compare the workflow, read a real audit case, and calculate a question set you can afford to repeat.
