AI Citation Tracking

AI citation tracking shows which sources AI engines use to justify their answers — and whether any of them are yours. Seeqly's Citation Audit reveals which of your pages each engine has fetched, how recently, and which content blocks got cited, so you know exactly what to publish next.

Citations are how AI answers are won

When an engine answers in grounded mode, it retrieves sources, then builds its answer around them. If your pages aren't in that retrieved set, you're invisible no matter how good your product is. Seeqly logs every citation in every run: the URL, the engine, the prompt, and the exact claim it supported.

The Citation Audit

The audit answers three questions per engine: Has it crawled my site? — which pages, how fresh. What does it cite instead of me? — the competitor pages, review sites, and Reddit threads winning your prompts. Where am I under-cited? — prompt clusters where you're mentioned but never sourced, mapped to the content that would fix it.

From citation gap to content brief

Each gap becomes an action in your queue: the prompt cluster, the engines involved, the sources currently winning, and the page type most likely to displace them. Ship the page, and the next run tells you whether it worked.

Frequently asked questions

Do AI engines actually crawl my website?

Some do, some don't — and it varies by page. Seeqly's Citation Audit shows which of your pages each AI engine has fetched, how recently, and which content blocks got cited.

How do I get cited more often?

Citations come from sources AI engines trust: structured pages on your domain, active Reddit threads in your category, and third-party reviews. Seeqly maps your current source base and surfaces where you are under-cited.

What's the difference between a mention and a citation?

A mention is your brand named in the answer text. A citation is your URL used as a source. You can be mentioned without being cited — and cited on pages that never name you.
