Do AI assistants mention your company?

Type your trade, your town and your company name. You get eight questions your customers might ask, a way to open each assistant, and a checklist to mark which answers named you. It runs in your browser, and your answers stay on this device.

No sign-up. This page never contacts an assistant or sends us what you type.

Step 2

Ask each assistant, the way a customer would

Open a private browser window, signed out where the assistant lets you, so your own past chats about the company don't color the answer.
Pick an assistant below, copy a question, paste it in and send it.
Read the whole answer, including any list or map, and mark whether it named your company.
Do all eight, then switch assistants. Come back in a month, ask again and update your marks.

Open ChatGPTOpens in a new tab. Paste each question there.

For Google AI Mode the button opens google.com/ai, the address Google Search Help gives for it.

Answers vary. This is a tally, not a measurement.

Google says AI Mode and AI Overviews may use different models and techniques, so the responses and links they show will vary (Google Search Central). The same question can also get a different answer for another person, on another day, in another town or account. A mention isn't a ranking and a miss isn't a verdict. This checklist records what you saw; it isn't a service that tracks AI answers.

What to fix

If they didn't name you, start here.

Your marks put a Start here badge on the column to work on first. None of this guarantees a mention; it makes your company easier to find and describe.

If they can't describe you by name

Make your name, address, phone number and services match on your website, your Google Business Profile, Bing Places and Apple Business.
Put plain About and Contact pages on your website that say who you are, what you do and which towns you work in.
Make sure search engines can index the site: verify it in Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools, as in how to get listed in AI search.

If they know you but name others

Give each main service, and each town you serve, its own clear page. Local SEO for contractors covers the pages that matter.
Ask every customer for a Google review, the same way every time. The review link and QR code tool makes the link and the messages.
Check that your robots.txt lets AI search crawlers read the site. How to show up in ChatGPT answers lists them.

Either way

Google says AI Overviews and AI Mode have no extra requirements: a page has to be indexed and eligible to show in Search with a snippet, and needs no special schema or AI text file (Google Search Central).
Run the instant website checkup for the basics on your own site.
Ask the same eight questions again in a month. One answer on one day tells you little; the same miss three months running tells you more.

Measure it properly

Two reports count the real thing.

The checklist shows what you saw on the day you looked. These two count search data over time.

Google Search Console

Google says sites that appear in AI features are reported in the Performance report, under the Web search type (AI features and your website). You need the site verified there first; how to get listed in AI search walks through it.

Bing Webmaster Tools

Its AI Performance report, launched as a public preview on February 10, 2026, shows how often your site is cited across Microsoft Copilot, AI-generated summaries in Bing and select partner integrations (Bing Webmaster Blog).

Questions

Straight answers.

Does this tool ask the assistants for me?

No. You run each question yourself. This page never contacts an assistant, and nothing you type or mark is sent to us.

Where are my answers saved?

In this browser's local storage, on this device only, so the questions and marks are ready next month. We never see them. Clear my answers removes the marks, emptying the four boxes removes what you typed, and a private window usually discards both when you close it.

Why are my results different from my customer's?

The same question can get a different answer for a different person, on a different day, from a different place or account. Treat a mention as a good sign and a miss as a reason to check the basics, never as a ranking.

Why doesn't the question open already typed in?

We link a question straight into an assistant only after we've tested that its link fills the question in, and we haven't found an assistant that documents such a link. So for now, copy the question and paste it.

Can you get my company mentioned?

No one can promise that, and we don't. Our SEO and AI search service works on what assistants read: your website, your listings and your reviews.
