About Optiview & AI Visibility
Understand the concept of AI Visibility and how Optiview helps your brand get discovered, cited, and trusted by large language models and AI assistants.
What is Optiview.ai?
Optiview.ai is a comprehensive AI visibility intelligence platform that helps brands understand how their content appears, is cited, and is interpreted by large language models (LLMs) and AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity.
We monitor how these systems use your content and provide actionable diagnostics to make your site more discoverable, answerable, and trusted by AI systems.
Think of us as the bridge between traditional SEO and the AI-powered future of search. While SEO tools help you rank in Google, Optiview helps you get cited by AI systems that are rapidly becoming how people find information.
What Optiview Provides:
- 36-Point Diagnostic System: Comprehensive evaluation across 23 page-level checks and 13 site-level checks, covering technical foundation, content quality, semantic structure, crawl access, authority signals, and real AI citations.
- Industry-Specific Citation Testing: Tailored test queries based on 200+ industry taxonomies (from healthcare to e-commerce to B2B SaaS), ensuring relevant, realistic prompts that reflect how users actually search in your space.
- Real-Time AI Testing: Active citation monitoring across ChatGPT (OpenAI), Claude (Anthropic), and Perplexity, showing you exactly where you appear—and where you're missing.
- Executive Summary Reports: Professional, stakeholder-ready PDF reports with category breakdowns, priority fixes, successful citation examples, missed opportunities, and actionable page insights.
- Weighted Scoring Methodology: Each diagnostic check is weighted by impact (1-15) and normalized to a 0-100 composite score, making it easy to prioritize fixes that matter most.
- Transparent Methodology: Full visibility into what we measure, how we calculate scores, and why each check matters for AI visibility.
What does "AI Visibility" mean?
AI Visibility refers to how often and how accurately AI systems reference your brand, products, or content when generating answers for users.
Just as SEO measures ranking in Google search results, AI Visibility measures recognition in LLMs—whether your content is:
- Discovered by AI training crawlers (GPTBot, Claude-Web, etc.)
- Understood correctly (through structure, clarity, and schema)
- Cited when relevant (appearing in AI-generated answers)
- Trusted as authoritative (competing with established sources)
Example: If a user asks ChatGPT "What are the best project management tools?" and your product is cited in the answer with a link to your site, you have AI Visibility.
If your product isn't mentioned—even though you rank #1 in Google—you have zero AI Visibility.
How is Optiview different from traditional SEO tools?
Traditional SEO tools focus on search engine ranking pages (SERPs) and keyword positions. Optiview measures whether your content is being used or cited in AI responses.
Here's the key difference:
| Dimension | Traditional SEO | Optiview (AI Visibility) |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Goal | Rank higher in search results | Get cited in AI answers |
| What We Measure | Keywords, backlinks, page speed | Citations, answerability, structured data |
| Bot Tracking | Googlebot, Bingbot | GPTBot, Claude-Web, PerplexityBot, etc. |
| Content Format | Optimized for search engines | Optimized for AI comprehension |
| Success Metric | Ranking position (1-10) | Citation frequency & accuracy |
We audit for answerability (how well you address user questions), structured data (schema markup AI can parse), and citation coverage across multiple AI models.
Why does AI Visibility matter now?
Generative engines are becoming the default way people get information. Consider:
- ChatGPT reached 100M users faster than any product in history
- Perplexity processes millions of queries daily as an AI-first search engine
- Google is rolling out AI Overviews that answer questions directly (reducing click-through)
- 43% of searches now get zero-click answers (Sparktoro, 2024)
If you're not part of their training or citation graph, your content may never be seen—even if you rank #1 in traditional Google search.
The shift is happening now. Brands that optimize for AI Visibility today will have a massive advantage as LLMs become the primary discovery layer for products, services, and information.
