The problem
AI engines ground answers in sources they cite. If Competitor X gets mentioned while you do not, it is because AI cited content that favors them. Knowing the source map is the difference between PR that drives AI visibility and PR that does not.
What it does
Every AI mention references sources. Citation & Source Analysis categorizes every cited URL into seven types (Institutional, Commercial, Media, Blog, Forum, Social, Educational), ranks them by citation frequency, and highlights which sources are earning your competitors their mentions.
Inside the feature
- Per-prompt citation list with URL, domain, category
- 7-category source taxonomy
- Citation frequency leaderboard per domain
- Competitor citation overlap analysis
- Identifies backlink and PR opportunities

How it works
Capture every citation
Every AI response where you or competitors appear has its cited URLs logged and classified.
Categorize automatically
Each cited URL is classified (Institutional, Commercial, Media, Blog, Forum, Social, Educational) via ML models plus rule-based overrides.
Rank and prioritize
See top cited domains, per category, per topic. Build your PR and backlink targeting list from the data.
Use cases
Backlink targeting
See the ten domains AI cites most for your category. Pitch guest posts or partnerships with exactly those domains.
Missing-from-the-map audit
Your own blog is never cited despite thirty articles on a topic. Diagnose why via the citation gap analysis on each post.
Source category strategy
If AI mostly cites Media sources, your strategy is PR. If it cites Forums, your strategy is Reddit seeding. Know the category mix before investing.
