What is Citegraph?
Citegraph is a live AI visibility tool that analyzes a website to determine how well its pages match the types of content that ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity cite in responses to buyer questions. It reads a site, generates buyer questions, and judges every page against citation patterns derived from 1,920 pages cited across 574 real buyer questions. It is aimed at marketers and site owners optimizing content for AI assistant citations.

Citegraph cons

- Scorer accuracy varies by engine (Perplexity is weakest at 0.65 due to overlap with Gemini)
Frequently asked questions about Citegraph
What does the live check do?
You type a website address; CiteGraph reads the site's pages, writes five buyer questions, and asks 37 questions about every page, using a small model per engine to produce a match with the kinds of pages each AI engine cites.
Do ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity really cite different kinds of pages?
Yes — in CiteGraph's data of 1,920 cited pages for 574 buyer questions, 91% of ChatGPT's cited pages were about a single product, Gemini cited ranked lists 54% of the time, Claude's pages gave step-by-step instructions 46% of the time, and Perplexity's compared named products 52% of the time.
Does a high match mean my page will be cited?
No. A match only indicates how closely a page resembles what an engine cites; whether the engine finds and trusts the page is a separate matter.
Is it free?
Yes, with no account required, though there are daily per-connection and overall caps since each run analyzes a real site. Full scans showing what engines actually cite are the paid product.
