# AI visibility: how LLMs see your brand

> As large language models (LLMs) evolve into a primary source of information, the way brands appear within them is becoming increasingly important.

Today, the game is changing. It is no longer enough to rank first on search engines. What truly matters is convincing AI systems to recommend your brand as the top choice.

**TL;DR.** LLMs are becoming a main source of information. Ranking first on Google is no longer enough: you want AI to recommend you too. A four-stage method that measures how often, where and in what tone a brand appears in LLM answers.

## The four-stage method

As Dimitris Bachtsevanis, Director of Performance & Partner, explains, “A brand’s presence within [LLMs](/en/seo/ai-geo/) is no longer only about visibility, but about how its narrative is shaped through AI-generated responses.”

The approach is built around a structured four-stage methodology:

1. **Semantic Intent Intelligence:** The analysis goes beyond traditional [keyword research](/en/seo/on-page-seo/) and focuses on understanding user intent through human-centric prompts, reflecting the way real users formulate questions for AI systems.
2. **Cross-Model Stress Testing:** Parallel simulations are conducted across leading LLMs in order to measure each brand’s visibility within different AI ecosystems. The process takes place in a clean-slate environment without interaction history, minimizing influences such as historicity bias and personalization effects.

## Sources and share of mentions

3. **Citation & Source Authority Tracking:** The methodology tracks the sources AI systems rely on, including websites, forums, and reviews, enabling a deeper understanding of how specific digital assets influence generated responses.
4. **Share of Model Voice (SoMV) & Sentiment Analysis:** The process evaluates each brand’s share of mentions compared to competitors, while also analyzing sentiment and the broader context in which the brand is presented.

## What a brand gains

The methodology shows clearly how a brand appears in AI answers and gives a structured way to assess your digital presence in this new environment.

## FAQ

### What is AI visibility tracking?
Systematic measurement of how often and how a brand appears in answers from models like ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude.

### Why run tests without history?
So earlier conversations and personalisation do not skew the result. It shows what the model tells a new user.

### What is Share of Model Voice?
The share of mentions a brand gets in LLM answers, compared with its competitors.
