AI Visibility MCP tool

cite42_rankingsAbout AI Visibility

Measure how a set of brands rank in AI answers (mention rate, average position, and a per-model breakdown) from your agent.

Overview

Give your agent a query and a set of brands; it returns how often each model names each brand, in what position, and the per-model split: the raw signal for tracking AI visibility.

Reading the metrics

Rates count usable answers only (2 of 3 = 66.7%); no usable answers means unavailable, not 0%. Position is mention order, not search ranking.

Example

# you say
How do Acme CRM, Rival CRM, and Legacy CRM rank across all five AI surfaces for “best startup CRM”?

# your AI replies
Rival CRM leads: named in 80% of answers, usually first (avg. position 1.5).
Acme CRM shows up in 60%, usually 2nd. Legacy CRM barely registers. To move up, focus on the prompts where Acme CRM is mentioned but ranked below Rival CRM.
