See the exact gaps that cost you AI citations

Compare your page against up to 3 competitors on the E-E-A-T and schema signals that decide who gets cited in ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini answers.

We analyze schema, entity links, author signals and structure locally. No live LLM calls.

Understanding Brand Mention Gaps in AI Search

When AI platforms answer user queries, they select sources based on structural authority signals — not just relevance. A brand mention gap occurs when a competitor has stronger schema markup, entity disambiguation, or E-E-A-T signals than your page for the same topic.

Signals We Compare

  • Organization Schema — Comprehensive Organization markup with sameAs links establishes brand entity recognition across knowledge graphs.
  • Person/Author Schema — Author attribution with credentials signals expertise per Google's Profile Page schema guidance.
  • Entity Disambiguation (sameAs) — Links to Wikipedia, Wikidata, LinkedIn, and Crunchbase help LLMs resolve your brand identity unambiguously.
  • FAQPage/HowTo Schema — Direct-answer eligibility markers that position your content for citation extraction.
  • External Citation Density — Pages citing authoritative sources demonstrate helpful content characteristics that LLMs reward.

Closing the Gap

For each signal where a competitor outscores you, we generate the exact markup needed to close the gap. Adding Organization schema with sameAs links, deploying comprehensive author attribution, and implementing FAQ markup are typically the highest-impact fixes.
