FAQ
GMB only works on Google Search. VisibilityAI checks and pushes you across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Grok, DeepSeek, and a growing list of AI platforms - see the full live coverage list on our homepage. AI engines completely ignore GMB listings.
Your VisibilityAI directory listing is available after you register. That is not the same as appearing in ChatGPT, Gemini, or another AI engine. Those engines crawl and cite independently — VisibilityAI does not inject listings into ChatGPT and does not guarantee a recommendation. The 60-day guarantee is defined on the pricing page and does not mean a ChatGPT ranking.
Yes - fully global. Any business, any city, any country, any language. The platform supports GST, VAT, EIN, ABN, CRN, and other local registration IDs for trust verification worldwide.
We offer a 60-day guarantee. If your business is not visible on Perplexity (Sonar API) and Bing organic search signal within 60 days - the next month is completely free. No questions asked. "Visible" means your name or website appears in the answer to a generic category search a stranger would type ("best CA in Mumbai"), on Perplexity (Sonar API) and Bing organic search signal. Searches containing your own business name don't count, and we don't promise a specific position. Full definition on the pricing page.
Traditional SEO optimizes for Google's link-based algorithm. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) structures your content so AI models can extract, trust, and cite your business in conversational responses. Different signals, different platforms, different strategy.
Writing AI-friendly content on your own site is table stakes - anyone can do that, the same way anyone could hand-code meta tags for SEO. What you can't build yourself is the rest of the stack: (1) placement on an independent, high-authority directory and comparison network that AI models already treat as a trusted third-party source - not your own website, (2) continuous monitoring across up to 21 measurement checks (5 on Basic) — provider APIs, generative search, search signals, and OpenRouter probes, not 21 consumer AI apps — that tells you the moment a competitor overtakes you, and (3) protocol-level access for AI agents via MCP, agent.json, and our agentic gateway. Agencies don't build their own rank tracker for SEO - they subscribe to one. VisibilityAI is that layer for GEO.
Yes - a full REST + GraphQL API for structured business entity data (schema.org JSON-LD, co-citation knowledge graph, provenance-tracked claims), plus an MCP server so Claude and other AI agents can query real business data directly. See the Developers & API section for endpoints and pricing.
Yes. Agencies get a dedicated dashboard to manage multiple client sub-accounts, white-label reporting, and a commission structure on referred plans. See the For Agencies section for the partner program details.
50+ categories out of the box - professional services (CAs, lawyers, doctors), local services (restaurants, gyms, salons), B2B (IT companies, manufacturing, logistics), and hyperlocal businesses. If your category isn't listed, you can still register - it's not a restricted list.
No. The dashboard handles Schema markup, llms.txt generation, citation seeding, directory & comparison page placement, and cross-LLM monitoring automatically - you fill in your business details once and the system does the rest. The API/MCP surface is only needed if you're a developer building on top of VisibilityAI's data.
It asks a real LLM (Gemini) the same kind of question a customer would - "best [your category] in [your city]" - and reports whether your business is mentioned, at what position, and against a named competitor if you add one. It's a live call, not a simulated score.
Both, and we label the difference. Core facts are self-reported at registration; GST/MCA-backed claims go through an admin verification step and are marked accordingly in the API and on your public profile - so downstream consumers (including AI agents) can tell verified from unverified.
Yes - no long-term contract, cancel anytime from Dashboard → Privacy & Data. If you cancel mid-cycle you keep access until the end of the paid period.
