An AI visibility audit is a structured measurement of how a brand appears in AI-generated answers across platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews. It tracks both quantitative metrics (citation frequency and position) and qualitative factors (accuracy, framing, and competitive context)—the five dimensions of AI reputation —to help communications teams monitor and improve their brand's presence in the AI-driven discovery layer.
