How do I find out what ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini currently say about my startup, and track it over time?
Start free: run 10-20 real buyer prompts (not just your own name) across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini every month, and log mentions, position, sentiment, and which sources get cited. One-shot graders like HubSpot's AEO Grader or Ahrefs' free AI visibility checker give you a baseline in minutes, and paid trackers automate it from about $29/month. The metric that matters is visibility rate and share of voice against competitors, not any single answer.
