About AI recommendations
Isn't this just SEO with a different name?
No. Search engine optimization and AI recommendations draw from different signals and produce different results.
With SEO, you're trying to rank in a list of links. With AI, there's no list. There's an answer. AI doesn't send customers to page ten; it gives them three to five names. The businesses in that answer got there through editorial coverage, reviews, structured data, and the way third-party sources describe them. Many of the tactics that move SEO rankings have little effect on AI recommendations, and vice versa.
Your report shows specifically which signals are driving your AI visibility, and they're often not the same ones driving your search rankings.
AI market share is small. Why should I care now?
58% of consumers have already used AI to get a product or business recommendation. That's not a future trend. It's happening now.
More importantly, the businesses that appear in AI answers today are building citation history that compounds over time. AI systems learn from the web, and the web reflects which businesses are being written about, reviewed, and referenced. Getting into that cycle now is easier than catching up later.
AI recommendations seem to change all the time. Is this even stable information?
More stable than you might expect. The fundamentals (editorial coverage, review volume, third-party citations, structured product information) don't shift quickly. A Wirecutter mention from 2021 still drives AI visibility in 2026. A consistent stream of reviews on Amazon and Trustpilot, or a strong Reddit thread, is more durable than a single viral month.
What does change: new coverage, new competitors, platform updates. Your report captures a snapshot, and it tells you what the stable drivers of your current position are. The recommended actions focus on those stable drivers.
What can I actually do about my AI visibility?
Specific things, in a specific order. That's what your report tells you.
The most common recommended actions are: earning coverage in publications AI cites for your category, building review volume on the platforms AI draws from (Amazon, Trustpilot, Reddit), making sure your product pages and structured data are rich enough for AI to understand what you sell, and making sure the language on your own site matches how you want to be described.
Your report prioritizes these for your specific situation. It doesn't give you a generic checklist. It shows you what's actually driving your current position and what's most likely to move it.
About your report
What's the difference between Quick Check and Full Report?
Quick Check ($5) is a focused snapshot: where AI thinks you stand, the questions that lead customers to you (or past you), where you rank against competitors, and what to fix first.
Full Report ($39) is the comprehensive version. It covers all 7 dimensions of your AI visibility: every category query we ran across the three AI platforms, every source AI cited, full competitor analysis, and a complete set of prioritized recommendations. Most customers choose Full Report. See a sample report for a sense of what's included.
Either way, you get a web page in your inbox. No account needed to view it.
How long does the report take?
Under an hour in most cases. The exact time depends on how much web presence exists for your business and your competitors. Businesses with a well-indexed web footprint take less time; newer businesses or those with thinner coverage take a little longer.
You'll get an email when it's ready.
I didn't receive my report
Check your spam folder first. Reports come from a new sender, so some email providers filter them. If it's not there, email us at support@adacity.ai with the address you used at checkout and we'll resend it.
What if the report is wrong?
Full refund within 30 days, for any reason. If the report misidentifies your business, draws incorrect conclusions, or you feel it wasn't useful, email us at support@adacity.ai. We'll process the refund right away. The money typically appears on your card in five to ten business days.
The report is about the wrong business
This can happen when a URL redirects or when multiple businesses share a domain. Email us at support@adacity.ai and we'll either rerun the report for the correct business or issue a refund.
Can I run a report for a competitor's business?
Yes. Enter any business's website address. This is useful for competitive research. You can run your report and a competitor's report side by side to see exactly where the gaps are.
Can I run another report later?
Yes. Each report is a one-time purchase. Come back anytime and run a new one. Comparing reports over time is a good way to see if your visibility is improving.
Do I need to create an account?
No. No account, no subscription, no login. You paste your website, pick a tier, and the report shows up in your inbox. That's the entire experience.
What AI platforms do you check?
Google Gemini, ChatGPT, and Claude. These are the three platforms your customers are most likely to use when looking for a recommendation. Where the platforms give different answers, your report shows you both the agreement and the disagreement.
Privacy and data
Is my data private?
Yes. Your report is only accessible via the unique link sent to your email. We don't sell your data, and we don't share it for advertising. We may use what you submit to improve our analysis and refine our models, as described in our Terms of Service.
Special cases
I sell on multiple platforms (Shopify, Amazon, Etsy). Which URL should I submit?
Submit the URL of your main brand site, usually your Shopify or custom storefront. That's where AI is most likely to find your full brand story. If you also want to see how your Amazon listings or Etsy shop are performing, you can run a separate report for each.
My business doesn't have much online presence. Will the report still be useful?
Yes, and it may be the most useful report we run.
Businesses with low web presence often have zero AI visibility: AI simply has nothing to say about them. Your report frames this as what it is: an opportunity. It shows you the specific sources and types of coverage that would most quickly change that picture. When you have nothing, the path forward is clearer, not murkier.
