Our process to do AI Citation Outreach

Audit & Attribution Setup

Audit & Attribution Setup

We analyze your current brand visibility across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Claude, and Gemini. We establish an attribution baseline using GA4, CRM data, and self-reported attribution to connect AI visibility to revenue signals.

Prompt & Source Mapping

We define the buyer evaluation prompts your ICP uses at decision stage. Then we reverse-engineer which specific domains and pages AI systems cite when those queries are triggered—prioritizing sources that materially move the needle.

Outreach Execution

We secure placements in editorial listicles, software review pages, YouTube overviews, and analysis content from publications your buyers already trust. Every placement is contextually relevant to your category positioning.

Track, Report & Scale
