Tools for finding and evaluating search keywords and topics. Ranked by how often ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, Google AI Mode mention and cite each brand when asked 5 buyer questions.
Snapshot for the week of July 27, 2026. Named = the engine wrote the brand into its answer. Cited = the engine linked the brand's own domain as a source. Each engine dot is one of the 5 questions.
Domains the engines cited most across this category's answers this week — the surfaces that shape AI recommendations.
Every week cloro asks each engine the same 5 buyer-intent questions with US localization, then scores the answers with deterministic string and URL matching — no LLM judge, so the same answers always give the same score. The 0–100 AI Visibility Score weights mention rate (60%), citation rate (25%), and how early a brand is named (15%).

}The score runs 0–100 and combines three signals: how often the brand is mentioned across engine answers (60%), how often an engine cites the brand's own domain as a source (25%), and how early the brand appears when it is named (15%). Detection is deterministic string and URL matching, not an LLM judgement, so the same answers always produce the same score.
This snapshot covers ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, Google AI Mode. Every engine is asked the same 5 buyer-intent questions with US localization, giving 25 engine answers for this category.
Weekly. A fresh sweep runs every Monday (UTC) and each page is stamped with the week it reflects. Rankings are deliberately not real-time — AI recommendations do not move hour to hour, and dated snapshots are easier to cite and compare.
A mention means the engine named the brand in its answer text. A citation means the engine linked the brand's own domain as a source. They are tracked separately because they are different kinds of visibility — a brand can be cited as a source without ever being recommended, and vice versa.
Yes. Everything here is free to reuse with attribution under CC BY 4.0 — cite the category page and the week it covers.
