What AI visibility trackers do
AI visibility trackers run queries through AI platforms and record where your brand appears. They provide metrics including share of voice, citation frequency, sentiment analysis, and prompt performance. They show you what is happening.
What AI recommendation infrastructure does
AI recommendation infrastructure builds the structured knowledge layer that determines your AI recommendation rate. Instead of monitoring where you appear, we build what makes you appear: an AI Knowledge Centre on your domain, structured content architectured for AI citation, a proof and evidence layer, schema markup, and technical AI readiness. We then track the outcome through the Recommendation Score.
When visibility tracking is the right choice
If you have a marketing team capable of acting on analytics data, a visibility tracker is a reasonable starting point. Platforms like Peec AI, Otterly AI, and Searchable provide accessible entry pricing and useful monitoring data.
When infrastructure is the right choice
If you want the Recommendation Gap closed rather than measured, infrastructure is the right investment. If you do not have a technical or content team to act on monitoring data, an analytics tool will not solve the problem it identifies. AI See You builds what the monitoring tells you that you need.
When visibility trackers win
Visibility trackers are the right choice for marketing teams with content and technical capability who want data to guide their own optimisation efforts. They provide valuable baseline data and ongoing monitoring at accessible price points.
When AI See You wins
AI See You is the right choice if you want the Recommendation Gap closed rather than measured. For businesses without dedicated marketing or technical teams, infrastructure solves the problem that monitoring can only describe.
Frequently Asked Questions
AI visibility measures how often your brand appears in AI-generated answers. AI recommendation measures how likely AI is to recommend your business when a buyer asks who to hire, what to buy, or which supplier to choose. Visibility is a byproduct of recommendation strength. AI See You focuses on the outcome buyers care about: the recommendation.
A baseline Recommendation Score assessment gives you the same understanding without a separate tool. A standalone visibility tracker may provide additional platform coverage if you have a team to act on it. For most professional services businesses, the baseline assessment followed by infrastructure build is the most direct path to improving recommendation rates.
