How it works

This tool does not run a complete web-wide mention crawl. Its goal is to help you judge, quickly, which types of external sources AI answers are most likely to rely on in your target market, and where your brand should build trust signals first.

  1. Step 1

    Enter your brand and business context

    Tell us your brand, region, language, and core business line.

  2. Step 2

    Match source types

    Based on your category and target market, the system estimates which source types are most likely to influence AI answers.

  3. Step 3

    Review model source rankings

    You will see the source types most often cited by mainstream global models in Dageno internal data, helping you prioritize where to invest next.

What these source categories represent

AI answers rarely rely on a single page. They usually synthesize signals from official sites, third-party reviews, community discussions, media content, software directories, and search results. Source categories are not a ranking promise. They show which external environments are most likely to influence how AI understands and trusts your brand.

    Why sources matter in AI answers

    If a brand only describes itself on its own website and lacks outside validation, AI has a harder time judging whether it is credible, used by real customers, or worth recommending. By contrast, when a brand shows consistent signals across product directories, community discussions, review platforms, industry articles, and technical ecosystems, AI is much more likely to recognize it as a real, trustworthy entity with context.

      What strong source coverage looks like

      Stronger source coverage is not about placing links everywhere. It is about creating consistent brand facts in the moments that matter. For B2B, SaaS, developer tools, and global brands, the priorities are usually:

      • Official site pages and documentation that explain product facts clearly
      • Third-party directories that confirm the product exists and is categorized correctly
      • Community discussions that prove real usage scenarios
      • Reviews and comparison content that support buying decisions
      • Industry content that builds category relevance and authority
      • Enough search-visible pages that can be cited by AI

      Who should care about this

      This result is for teams asking, 'Which external platforms should we use to build AI trust signals?' If you are already investing in SEO, GEO, content marketing, developer growth, or global brand building, this preview helps you avoid spraying effort across channels and focus first on the source types most likely to influence AI answers.

        Frequently asked questions

        Will this tool crawl every external mention of my brand?

        No. The free preview does not run a full-web crawl. It uses your business context and Dageno's internal source observations to suggest the most important source directions first. Real mention analysis, competitor sources, and prompt performance are covered in the full audit. Use the Dageno AI subscription for a complete source analysis of your brand.

        Do these rankings mean my brand is already being cited?

        No. The rankings show the source patterns that mainstream AI platforms tend to rely on, helping you see which platforms and content types deserve attention. Whether your brand is actually cited still needs to be checked against specific prompts and model answers.

        Why not show an exact citation rate directly?

        An exact citation rate requires continuous model-answer collection, source logging, deduplication, classification, and analysis by region, language, and prompt type. That process is resource-intensive. Use the Dageno AI subscription to get a full source analysis for your brand.

        What should I do after I review the result?

        Start by identifying the key sources where your brand is missing: official site documentation, third-party directories, community discussions, review platforms, industry content, and search-visible pages. Then prioritize the sources most relevant to your category, region, and target users.
