Buyers ask ChatGPT “best plumber near me” or “which CRM suits a small team” and get three or four names with a paragraph on each. Many never click through to a website. That means no impression in Search Console and no session in GA4, so you can’t see the win or the loss.
Someone is already asking “are we showing up in ChatGPT?” Jepto gives you a real answer, not a screenshot.
Ask AI the same question twice and you’ll get a different list. That’s why a single screenshot tells you very little, and why an “AI ranking” isn’t a number you can trust.
What holds steady is how often you’re named across many runs. Jepto runs your prompts on a schedule and tracks your named rate and cited rate over time, for each engine. You see the trend, not a lucky or unlucky answer.
Open ChatGPT and you’re the least representative buyer there is. It knows your chat history, your saved memories and where you are, so it leans toward the brands you’ve already asked about, including your own.
Jepto runs the same prompt in a clean session, with no history and no memory, from the country you choose, on a schedule. Creating a neutral baseline so that when your named rate moves, the engine moves, not your account.
Calling a model’s API is the cheap, easy way to track AI. But the API isn’t the ChatGPT your buyers use. It skips the web search some of the time, writes shorter answers, and often cites completely different sources, or none.
Jepto captures answers from the same interfaces people actually use. You get the full response, every source in the order it appeared, and the searches the engine ran before answering.
AI engines don’t agree with each other. They pull from different sources, cite in different volumes and recommend different brands. You can own Perplexity and be invisible in AI Overviews. Plenty of tools cap you at one to three engines and charge extra for the rest. With Jepto, every engine is available on every prompt, and you pay per answer.
Every AI answer is built from sources. Jepto lists every domain and page the engines cited, with its position, share of citations, the engines that used it, and whether you own it.
When a Reddit thread, a directory listing or a competitor’s “best of” page is telling your story, you know where to spend the next hour. Update it, get listed on it, or publish something better.
Before ChatGPT, Perplexity and Copilot write an answer, they search the web, often several times per prompt. A page has to match those searches to be retrieved at all.
Jepto shows every search, which engines ran it, whether one of your pages was retrieved, and your Google Search Console position for the same query. It’s a content brief written by the engine itself, and you can track any of those searches as a new prompt.
Paste in a list of buyer questions covering discovery, comparison, pricing and brand searches. Pick the engines and country for each one, then run them daily or weekly. Jepto suggests new prompts based on fan-out searches, competitor gaps and the claims it finds in answers.
Open the latest answer from every engine, with your brand and citations highlighted, the sources in order, and the other brands it named.
We don’t give you a sentiment score. AI rarely says anything negative, so the real risk is when it’s wrong. Jepto pulls out repeated claims about your pricing, locations, services and integrations. It flags the ones that are outdated, incomplete or credited to the wrong brand, along with the source behind them.
No competitor list to maintain. Any brand named in a tracked answer shows up automatically, including the ones you never thought to check. See share of voice, named vs cited, strength on each engine, and the prompts where they beat you.
AI Visibility isn’t a dashboard you have to screenshot. Every prompt, answer, source, citation, fan-out search and competitor lands in your Jepto data model, next to your GA4, Search Console and ad data. No export, connector or API upgrade needed.
Being named in an AI answer is the leading indicator. The sessions, signups and sales that follow are the proof. Most AI visibility tools only ever show you the first, because the second lives in a tool they can’t see.
Your GA4 and Search Console data is already in Jepto, and your AI visibility data now sits beside it. Chart named rate against referral sessions from ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini over the same dates, in the same report, for the same brand. When visibility moves, you can see what moved with it.
Most AI visibility tools sell fixed bundles of 25 to 100 prompts, often limited to a few engines, with extra engines, seats or brands sold as add-ons. Jepto uses the same AI Credits for each response, similar to its other features. You select the engines and schedule per prompt, paying only for what you actually use.
Let your prompts run on a schedule and get told when something meaningful moves. Alerts land in your Jepto Insights inbox, next to anomalies and the rest of your work.
It tracks what AI answer engines tell buyers about you, and where they got it from. Jepto runs the questions your buyers ask across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Perplexity, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot and Claude. It then shows how often you’re named, which of your pages are cited, who else is recommended, and which sources each answer was built from.
It suits businesses and in-house marketing teams tracking their own brand, and agencies tracking many brands.
Two reasons: personalization and chance. Your own ChatGPT uses your chat history, saved memories and location, so it isn’t answering the way it would for a new buyer. And AI gives a different answer every time, so one answer is a sample of one. Jepto runs your prompts in clean sessions, from the country you choose, on a schedule. You get a rate you can track instead of a screenshot.
By measuring how often, not where. SparkToro found there’s less than a 1 in 100 chance that ChatGPT or Google’s AI returns the same list of brands twice. How often a brand appears across many runs is far more stable. Jepto reports your named rate and cited rate across every scheduled run, per engine and over time, rather than a single “AI ranking”.
There isn’t a single real answer. Every signed-in user sees something slightly different. What you can measure reliably is a neutral baseline: the same prompt, from the same country, in a clean session with no history or memory, run again and again. That baseline shows whether the engine itself is moving toward or away from you, without anyone’s personal history mixed in.
Because the API isn’t the product your buyers use. API responses are shorter, don’t always search the web, and often cite different sources or none. In independent testing across 1,000 prompts, ChatGPT API and interface answers shared only 24% of the brands they named and 4% of the sources they cited.
Jepto captures answers from the same interfaces people use, including the full text, every source in order, and the searches the engine ran.
Seven engines, all available on every prompt, with no add-ons:
Named means the answer mentions you. Cited means it links a page you own. An engine can recommend you without linking your site, or use your pages without saying your name, so Jepto tracks both separately. Add every spelling of your brand and every domain you own in Settings so nothing is missed.
They’re the web searches an AI engine runs before it writes an answer. ChatGPT, Perplexity and Copilot often run several per prompt. A page has to match those searches to be retrieved and cited. Jepto lists each one with the engines that ran it, whether one of your pages was retrieved, and your Search Console position for the same query.
Yes, from any country. Each prompt runs from the country you pick, and ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot can also target a US state. AI answers and sources change by market, so measure where your buyers actually are.
You pay per answer in AI Credits, the same credits as Data Chat. Each answer costs 2 credits on Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot, 3 on ChatGPT and 4 on Claude. There are no prompt bundles or per-engine add-ons.
For example, 20 prompts run weekly on ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity uses about 600 credits a month. Plans include monthly AI Credits and you can add more at any time. Use the credit calculator or see pricing.
Yes. Every prompt, answer, source, citation, fan-out query and competitor is stored in your Jepto data model alongside your other marketing data. Build it into Jepto reports, ask Data Chat about it, or query it from Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Cursor through the Jepto MCP server.
Yes. Each brand in Jepto has its own brand names, domains, prompts and competitors. Agencies and multi-brand businesses can track every brand separately and compare them in one place.
No, it works alongside it. Rank tracking measures blue links. AI Visibility measures the answer: how often you’re named and cited, what AI says about you, and which pages shaped it. Fan-out queries show your Search Console position next to each search the engine ran, so you can see where the two overlap.
