What is AI visibility?

Definition

AI visibility is a named-mention test. Ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews the question your customer asks. If your name is not in the reply, you are not visible on that surface for that query. Ranking a page is not the same test.

The work underneath is AEO and GEO. AEO is the quoted answer. GEO is being retrieved and named inside a generated reply. Visibility is the measurement that covers both.

How to measure it

Fix a query set. Write the questions as users type them. Include Chennai when the buyer is local. Run the same set on each engine. Log whether the brand was named, whether a URL was credited, and whether the named string matches the entity you intended. Repeat. How to brief the work is the pack that includes those queries.

When a rival is named, ask which layer failed. Grounded Overviews are a live-search problem. Ungrounded chat is a longer entity problem. Retrieval and citations is the stack. He reads the job as an engineer reads a model: pretraining, post-training, and live web search. If you do not know which layer you are talking to, you are guessing.
