AI Visibility
Platforms & Competitors
Choose AI platforms to monitor and compare against competitors.
See how visibility breaks down per AI model and per competing brand on the Platforms and Competitors tabs of AI Overviews.
Choosing platforms to monitor
In Settings → Platforms, select which platforms Grandranker scans:
- Google AIO (AI Overviews in Google Search)
- Google AI Mode
- ChatGPT
- Perplexity
- Claude
- Gemini
- DeepSeek
- Grok
A newly enabled platform has no data yet, so it scans immediately — no waiting for the weekly cooldown.
The Platforms tab
Each monitored platform gets a card, sorted by mention rate: Mentions, Citations, Sentiment (Positive/Neutral/Negative), SoV (share of voice), Rank (average position when the model lists brands).
Platforms with live web search (Google AIO, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Grok) carry a "Web search" badge — most influenced by fresh content and citations.
Below the cards: sentiment by AI model, platform trends over time, and a query-by-platform matrix showing which queries you appear for on which model.
The Competitors tab
- Brand Leaderboard: all brands ranked by AI mention frequency, yours highlighted.
- Comparison table: side-by-side metrics for you and each competitor.
- Visibility over time: trend lines versus competitors.
- Visibility by topic: a radar chart across query categories (needs 3+ categories with data).
The Dashboard also plots everyone on a competitive quadrant of mentions versus citations.
Where competitors come from
Grandranker detects competitors from your brand profile and from brands AI models name alongside you. To pin the list, set Settings → Brand & Identity → Competitors Override.
Also add Brand Aliases there: other names AI might use for you (abbreviations, old names, misspellings). Without them, mentions under a variant name may not count.
Click Save after changing settings — platform, alias, and competitor changes only apply once saved.
FAQ
Why does a competitor show higher visibility than me even though my product is better?
AI models reward citable content, not product quality. Check Content Gaps for queries they win, and publish content that answers those.
Can I track a competitor's domain, not just their brand name?
Yes. Add any domain in Settings → Tracked Domains to compare citation rates.
Do more platforms mean slower scans?
No. Each platform scans via its own job.
