Why Spotlit

The free tool that shows you what ChatGPT knows about your brand.

Every AI SEO product costs $300–$2,000/month. Spotlit is free for your first check, $29/mo to track daily.

Real ChatGPT responses

We query ChatGPT with web search enabled, just like your prospects do. No synthetic data, no stale snapshots.

Transparent scoring

Visibility score combines mentions rate, position, sentiment, and share of voice. Formula published on the How It Works page.

Competitor tracking

See which competitors ChatGPT mentions instead of you. Know exactly who you need to outrank.

Source citations

ChatGPT cites specific URLs. We surface them so you know which PR placements, Reddit threads, or reviews drive your ranking.

Daily tracking

Paid plans run automatically every day. Get alerts when your rank changes — no more wondering "am I still visible?"

No signup to start

FAQ

Questions about AI search visibility, answered.

What is an AI search visibility check?

An AI search visibility check asks ChatGPT the buyer-intent questions your customers actually type — for example, "best AI receptionist for small business" — and measures whether your brand shows up, how it's described, and which competitors appear. Spotlit does this automatically for 5 queries and gives you a 0-100 visibility score.

How is the Spotlit visibility score calculated?

The score is a weighted composite: 40% mentions rate (how often ChatGPT names your brand), 25% average position (rank in listicle responses), 15% sentiment (is it described positively), and 20% share of voice (your mentions vs competitors). Full formula →

Is this the same as ChatGPT SEO or GEO?

Yes. Spotlit is a generative engine optimization (GEO) tool — it measures AI search visibility the same way traditional SEO tools measure Google rankings. GEO is the newer term for the practice of optimizing content so AI engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews cite your brand.

How do I improve my AI search visibility?

Three things ChatGPT consistently cites: (1) structured, factual content with clear answers — FAQ schema, comparison tables, pricing pages; (2) mentions in trusted sources — Wikipedia, Reddit, industry review sites, G2, Capterra; (3) a clear, consistent brand narrative. Spotlit's paid tiers track which citations drive your rank changes so you know what PR placements work.

Do you track Perplexity, Gemini, or Google AI Overviews?

ChatGPT only for now. Perplexity support is next. ChatGPT represents the largest share of AI search traffic, so we focused there first and do it well before expanding.

How much does Spotlit cost?

The first check is free — no signup required. Paid tiers start at $29/month for daily tracking of one brand, $79/month for three brands with competitor tracking, $199/month for agencies with white-label reports, and $299/month for high-volume agencies running many client brands.
