Who should use CITAGEN™?

CITAGEN™ is designed for organizations where authority, accuracy, and trust matter: SaaS and B2B enterprises, legal, healthcare, and financial services firms, publishers and educational institutions, and agencies managing AEO + GEO at scale. Any organization that wants to be cited by ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, or other AI platforms should implement AEO and GEO strategies through CITAGEN™.

How long does it take to see results?

Results depend on AI platform indexing cycles, which vary by platform. Most customers begin seeing initial visibility within 2-6 weeks, with increasing citations and mentions over time. Perplexity and Google AI Overviews typically show results fastest (2-4 weeks), while ChatGPT and Claude take 4-12 weeks. During onboarding, we provide detailed benchmarks specific to your industry and target platforms.

How does CITAGEN™ optimize content for ChatGPT citations?

CITAGEN™ optimizes content for ChatGPT by implementing structured data markup, creating llms.txt discovery files, formatting content in question-answer patterns, ensuring clear entity definitions, and providing direct, authoritative answers. We also ensure GPTBot crawler access, implement proper meta descriptions, and structure content with clear headings and semantic HTML that ChatGPT's retrieval system can parse effectively.

What is llms.txt and why is it important for AEO?

llms.txt is an AI discovery file that provides structured information about your website specifically for large language models. It includes license information, sitemap references, API endpoints, content policies, and structured metadata that AI systems use to understand your site's content and authority. Having a comprehensive llms.txt file significantly improves your AEO score and increases the likelihood of AI citation across platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity.

How does citation monitoring work in CITAGEN™?

CITAGEN™ monitors citations across AI platforms by tracking when and how your content is referenced in AI-generated responses. We scan ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and other platforms for mentions of your brand, content, and key topics. Our system provides real-time alerts when new citations appear, tracks citation frequency and context, measures visibility trends, and identifies opportunities to improve citation rates through content optimization.

What is the difference between answer cards and regular content?

Answer cards are structured, AI-optimized content units designed specifically for retrieval and citation by AI systems. Unlike regular content, answer cards include direct answers in the first sentence, comprehensive schema.org markup, clear question-answer formatting, entity definitions, and semantic structure. Answer cards are optimized for specific AI platform requirements and are more likely to be cited in AI-generated responses compared to traditional blog posts or web pages.

Can CITAGEN™ integrate with WordPress or Shopify?

Yes, CITAGEN™ integrates with WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, and other major content management systems through our publishing automation system. We provide one-click publishing to CMS platforms, automatic schema markup injection, answer card synchronization, and real-time content updates. Our integrations ensure that your AEO-optimized content is properly structured and formatted regardless of your underlying CMS platform.

How much does CITAGEN™ cost?

CITAGEN™ offers enterprise pricing tailored to your organization's needs. Plans start with our Starter tier for small businesses, Professional tier for growing companies, and Enterprise tier for large organizations requiring advanced features, white-label capabilities, and dedicated support. Contact our team for a custom quote based on your specific AEO and GEO requirements, content volume, and AI platform coverage needs.

What AI platforms does CITAGEN™ support?

CITAGEN™ supports all major AI platforms including ChatGPT (OpenAI), Claude (Anthropic), Gemini (Google), Perplexity AI, Bing Copilot (Microsoft), Google AI Overviews, and emerging AI search engines. We also support voice assistants like Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant. Our platform continuously adapts to new AI platforms and updates to ensure your content maintains maximum visibility across the evolving AI ecosystem.

How do I improve my content clarity score?

To improve content clarity for AI systems, use clear heading hierarchy (H1, H2, H3), provide direct answers in the first sentence of each section, implement comprehensive meta descriptions and Open Graph tags, structure content with FAQ schema markup, use bullet points and numbered lists, define entities clearly, and ensure your content follows natural question-answer patterns. CITAGEN™ provides automated clarity scoring and specific recommendations for each piece of content.

What is schema markup and why does it matter for AEO?

Schema markup is structured data vocabulary (schema.org) that helps AI systems understand your content's meaning, relationships, and entities. For AEO, schema markup is critical because AI platforms rely on it to extract accurate information, validate content authority, understand entity relationships, and determine citation worthiness. Key schema types for AEO include FAQPage, Article, Organization, Product, HowTo, and BreadcrumbList. Sites with comprehensive schema markup receive significantly higher AEO scores and citation rates.

Can I track competitors in CITAGEN™?

Yes, CITAGEN™ includes competitive intelligence features that allow you to monitor how competitors are cited across AI platforms. You can track competitor mention frequency in AI responses, analyze their AEO strategies and schema implementations, identify content gaps and opportunities, compare citation rates across different AI platforms, and receive alerts when competitors gain new citations. This competitive data helps you refine your AEO strategy and maintain visibility advantages.

Does Citagen push content into AI models?

No. Citagen publishes structured, answer-ready content to the open web so AI systems can retrieve and incorporate it at query time. We integrate with Google, Bing, and IndexNow to ensure content is discoverable, crawlable, and indexed efficiently. We do not submit content directly to LLMs or guarantee citations—we optimize for probability, not deterministic control.

How long does it take to see results with CITAGEN?

Results depend on AI platform indexing cycles, which vary by platform and are outside of our control. Most customers begin seeing initial visibility within weeks, with increasing citations and mentions over time. During onboarding, we provide detailed benchmarks specific to your industry and target platforms.

Who should use Citagen?

Citagen is designed for organizations where authority, accuracy, and trust matter: SaaS and B2B enterprises, legal, healthcare, and financial services firms, publishers and educational institutions, and agencies managing AEO + GEO at scale. If AI-generated answers and summaries influence decisions in your market, AEO and GEO readiness is now an operational requirement.

What does Citagen actually do?
