best way to track AI search rankings for D2C brands across multiple LLMs: what buyers discover

See which brands AI assistants put in front of buyers and why those answers are chosen.

The AI answer we saw

The most effective approach for D2C brands is to use a dedicated AI search monitoring platform like Profound, Peec AI, or Otterly.AI that supports multi-LLM tracking across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Bing Copilot. These tools allow you to define a set of product and category queries, then measure your brand's share of voice, mention frequency, and sentiment across each platform. Complement this with regular audits of which third-party review sites, blogs, and publications are being cited, as optimizing those sources can improve your visibility in AI-generated answers.
