See the queries where AI Mode names you, and where it does not

Add the searches your buyers run and Mencoro checks them in AI Mode on a schedule. For every query you see whether your brand is named, where in the answer it appears and how it is described, so the gaps are a list of queries to work on, not a guess.

Find the sources AI Mode builds its answers from

AI Mode cites the pages it used. Mencoro records every source, marks your own domains and ranks the third-party sites that feed answers in your market, from marketplaces and directories to the social profiles Google's AI cites far more often than ChatGPT does.

FAQ

Google AI Mode tracking questions

Common questions about tracking your
brand's visibility in AI Mode.

A tool that runs a fixed set of searches in Google AI Mode on a schedule and records whether your brand is named, where in the answer, how it is described and which sources are cited. Mencoro turns those answers into mention rate, position, sentiment and share of voice.
AI Overviews is a summary shown above the classic results for some searches; AI Mode is a separate conversational tab where a Gemini model answers the whole query and keeps the context for follow-ups. They often cite different sources, so a brand can appear in one and not the other.
In Mencoro's study of AI citations in Spain, AI Mode cited 6.8 sources per answer, 76.7% of them company websites. Instagram was the domain cited for the most brands, and Google's AI engines cited social networks far more often than ChatGPT.
Google counts clicks from AI Mode inside Search Console's web search data without a separate filter, so you cannot isolate it there. Tracking the answers themselves is the way to see whether AI Mode names you.
Yes. ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews and the classic Google results are tracked in the same project, each separately.
