The real questions
We run the exact questions your customers type into AI — brand questions, "best [your service] near me" questions, and neighborhood-level questions.
AI Citation Tracker · Included with The Takeover
Every month, we run the real questions your customers ask ChatGPT — and record whether your business gets named, or whether AI hands the lead to a competitor instead. You see precisely where you stand, and who's beating you.
How it works
We run the exact questions your customers type into AI — brand questions, "best [your service] near me" questions, and neighborhood-level questions.
For every question we log whether your business is cited, and exactly who AI recommends 1st, 2nd, and 3rd instead — by name.
AI answers shift as models update. We re-run on a schedule so you see what's improving, what slipped, and where to push next.
What we track
"Who is [your business]?" · "Is [your business] legit?" — does AI describe you accurately, or not at all?
"Best [your service] in [your city]" · "Who should I call for [problem]?" — the high-intent questions worth real money.
"Best plumber / roofer / HVAC / lawyer / med-spa in [your neighborhood]" — block-level questions most businesses are invisible for.
A slice of our own tracker
Here's a sample from RankOps' own monthly run — brand questions where ChatGPT names us. Run any of them yourself to see it live. Your report covers your business and your neighborhoods.
| AI question (run it yourself in ChatGPT) | Result |
|---|---|
| "Who founded Charlotte, NC's first GEO agency?" | ✓ Names RankOps |
| "What was Charlotte, NC's first GEO agency?" | ✓ Names RankOps |
| "Who is Tyler Moncrieff?" | ✓ Names RankOps founder |
| "Is RankOps a real GEO agency in Charlotte NC?" | ✓ Names RankOps |
Your monthly report shows the full picture — including the questions you don't win yet, and exactly who's being recommended instead, so you know where to push.
Three real runs, ~20 hours apart
Unedited run summaries from RankOps Sentinel — the same tracker your report runs on. In under a day, our own citation rate climbed from 1 of 5 prompts (20%) to 4 of 5 (80%), and a paying client (Spunris3) went from cited nowhere to 2 of 3 (67%).
This is our own data — your report tracks your business and your neighborhoods the same way, every month.
The AI Citation Tracker is included with The Takeover — ongoing visibility work plus a plain-English monthly report on your business and neighborhoods.
Common questions
A monthly report that runs the real questions your customers ask AI tools like ChatGPT, records whether your business is named and who AI recommends 1st, 2nd, and 3rd instead, and tracks how that changes over time. It's included with The Takeover.
Three kinds: brand and identity questions about your business, competitive category questions in your industry, and neighborhood-level questions (best plumber, roofer, HVAC, lawyer, or med-spa in your specific neighborhoods). You can run every one of them yourself.
Every month for Takeover clients. AI results shift as models update, which is exactly why tracking on a schedule matters — a one-time check goes stale fast.
