Module 1 · Scan

Your AI visibility baseline, in minutes.

Citations.io scans your site and the AI engines in one pass — so you know exactly where you stand before you spend a cent on content.

What the scan covers

Site crawl — title, meta, H1/H2, markdown and navigation extracted from your priority pages.
Brand profile — category, scope, target customers, use cases, themes, buyer problems and suggested competitors.
Initial AI sweep — a starter prompt pack run across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude.
Baseline metrics — Visibility Score, Share of Answer, Recommendation Rate and Citation Coverage with confidence labels.

Why it matters

You can't fix what you can't see. The scan replaces guesswork ("are we even cited?") with evidence: real answers, real sources, real competitors — captured the moment you sign up.

FAQ

What does the scan actually do?+

Crawls priority pages on your domain, extracts category/audience/competitors, then runs a starter prompt set across all four major engines so you see your visibility baseline on day one.

How long does it take?+

Typically 2–4 minutes for a standard site. Larger plans crawl more pages.

What if my site blocks crawlers?+

We fall back to a manual setup tab where you paste content directly — and offer a CitationsBot/1.0 allowlist hint.
