Each week ADpilot asks ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini the questions your buyers ask and records whether each one names your business, in which position, and whether it cites your site. Copilot citations come from Bing. Where you are missing, it suggests the page that would answer the question.
This week, 3 engines
ChatGPT50% named you
Perplexity83.3% named you
Gemini50% named you
| Question | ChatGPT | Perplexity | Gemini |
|---|---|---|---|
| how to make cold brew at home | #2 | #2 | #2 |
| best coffee subscription uk | Dropped | #1 | Not named |
How it works
Write questions the way a buyer would, without your brand name, or take ten suggestions from your brand profile. Each engine answers each one weekly.
Named and in which position, cites your site, not named, or dropped since last time, per engine, with the share of answers that name you week by week.
Where you are missing, one click on Write an article starts a page with an answer-first brief, using your Google, Bing and AI answer data for the topic.
On the real screens
Tracked questions
Dropped means an engine named you last time and not now. The fix is usually a page that answers the question directly.
Share of answers
The share of answers that name you, per engine, next to the questions where you are missing.

Bing is the gateway
Copilot answers are built on what Bing has indexed, so a page missing from Bing cannot be cited there. ADpilot imports Bing's Copilot citations and shows Bing next to Google.

This page is about doing it. The definitions and the evidence behind them live in Answers.
Questions
Close, not identical. Answers come from each engine's API with web search turned on. A signed-in user with history and location can get a different answer, which is why the trend over weeks matters more than one answer.
Copilot and Bing's AI answers cite pages Bing has found, and Microsoft made Bing ChatGPT's default search experience in 2023; OpenAI does not name its search providers today. A page Bing has not indexed cannot be cited by Copilot, which is why SEO OS reads Bing next to Google.
No. The checks run on ADpilot's own accounts.
Scale, as part of SEO OS, with up to 25 tracked questions across all your brands.
