Type a buyer-intent query and the simulator sends it to a real AI model, then returns the model's answer. Read it the way a prospect would: which companies does it name, in what order, and is your brand among them. If you are absent, the response shows you exactly which competitors fill the space you want to own.
Because the tool calls a paid AI API, it requires a free account. Anonymous visitors see a signup prompt instead of the input box. This keeps the preview fast and free of abuse, and it is a single response from one model, so treat it as a directional read rather than a final verdict.
Buyers no longer start every search on Google. Many open ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, or Perplexity and ask for a recommendation outright. Whoever the model names in that answer has a real advantage, and whoever it omits never enters the consideration set. The simulator lets you stand in the buyer's shoes and see which side of that line you are on.
The discipline that makes the result trustworthy is querying without your own brand name. Ask a model about you directly and it will oblige with something positive, a confirmation-bias trap. Ask the category question a prospect would actually type, with no brand names, and the answer is unfiltered: it reflects how the model genuinely sees your space. That is why this preview is framed around zero-brand-name buyer queries.
It sends the buyer-intent query you type to a real AI model and shows you the response, including the companies and recommendations the model names. It is a preview of how an assistant answers when someone in your category asks for options, so you can see whether you appear and who shows up instead.
Asking a model to talk about your brand by name almost always returns something flattering, which tells you nothing. The honest test is a zero-brand-name buyer query, the kind a prospect actually types, such as best CRM for startups. If you surface there, you have real visibility; if you do not, you have found the gap. That is the methodology this preview is built around.
The simulator calls a paid AI API on every run, so a free account is required for cost control and abuse prevention. Anonymous visitors see a prompt to create a free account first. Signing up takes a moment and costs nothing.
No. The simulator is a single preview from one model at one moment, and AI answers vary between runs. Continuous tracking queries all four models (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity) on a schedule so you can see trends and category position over time rather than a one-off snapshot.
Use the questions your buyers ask at the research and comparison stage, phrased the way they would phrase them, with no brand names: best tool for [job], alternatives to [category leader], how to [solve the problem you solve]. Those are the moments where being recommended turns into a customer.
Round it out with the other free AI visibility tools: confirm crawler access with the robots.txt checker, add a site summary with the llms.txt generator, and mark up your answers with the FAQ schema generator.
