Find out whether AI tools like ChatGPT and Gemini mention or recommend your brand when users ask relevant questions.

Tool

Brand Mentions AI

AI chatbots are becoming a primary discovery channel — people ask ChatGPT for software recommendations, ask Gemini for product advice, and trust those answers. If your brand is not appearing in those responses, you are invisible to a growing segment of buyers before they ever reach a search engine.

Brand Mentions AI checks whether AI systems recommend your brand for relevant queries. It tests the specific questions your target customers ask — "best project management tool for freelancers," "top email marketing platforms for e-commerce" — and returns whether your brand appears, in what context, and how it is positioned versus competitors.

This is essential intelligence for marketing teams navigating the shift to AI-mediated discovery. Understanding your AI recommendation presence is the first step to improving it — and right now, most companies have no idea what these systems say about them.

How to check if ai chatbots are recommending your brand with Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and OpenClaw

Claude turns AI recommendation checking into a competitive intelligence session. Test your brand across multiple relevant queries and Claude identifies where you appear, how you are described, and which competitors are consistently recommended over you. Ask follow-up questions to understand the pattern and what it means for your content strategy.
