New tool Cituna reveals why AI models overlook products

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new tool called Cituna has been developed to address the challenge of products being overlooked by AI answer engines. Cituna queries multiple AI models, including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Grok, daily to see which products they cite in their responses. It then provides users with specific reasons why their product might be invisible to these AI models, often due to absence from third-party comparison sites or roundups.
