Know whether AI recommends you

Not prompt templates. Real buyer journeys.

Every other tool fires the same static prompts at a model and tallies mentions. We send AI Buyers on live, multi-turn journeys with real web search, shopping your category to an actual decision. So you learn not just whether you appear, but whether you win, and why you lose.

01

We build your buyers

Babel42 reads your site to work out your category, then proposes your competitors and buyer segments and hands all of it to you to edit. AI Buyers are synthetic personas, not real people we observed.

02

They shop the category

Each buyer opens on a query your domain already ranks for, then asks follow-ups across up to five turns until there is a decision to record. Every journey runs twice, so a result is checked for stability.

03

You get the verdict

Six headline numbers for your brand, with appearance, wins and share of AI voice also computed for every rival named beside you. Alongside them: how you are positioned, and the objection that lost each deal.

Plain-English outcomes

Babel42 opens on the five-second answer, not a grid to decode: appearance rate, win rate, weighted win, shortlist rate, share of AI voice and own-site citations, across the top of the page.

Clickable journeys

Replay any shop as a workflow diagram: the opening question, the assistant's answers turn by turn, the brands it named, the sources it cited and the decision it reached.

Prompts & citations

Every question asked and every source quoted, each URL marked as citing you or citing a rival, filterable by assistant, buyer and query. The rival-citing pages are your target list.

Perception & recommendations

Babel42 reads your position across the answers as leader, value pick or niche, and pairs it with ranked recommendations: the page to publish, the source to earn a mention on, the objection to answer.

included from starter

A full site audit every month

Before an assistant can recommend you it has to be able to read you. Every paid plan includes a whole-site audit each month: we crawl up to 1,000 pages the way an AI crawler does, score every page, name every weak section, and compare you with three competitors. Re-run it five times as you fix things.

On its own it is a $9.99 one-off. Bought with any plan it costs nothing extra.

AI visibility, answered

What is AI search visibility?

Your buyers increasingly ask AI assistants like ChatGPT and Gemini for recommendations before they ask a human. AI search visibility, sometimes called GEO, is knowing what those assistants say about you and whether they point buyers your way.

Is GEO the same as SEO?

They are cousins. SEO is about ranking in a list of blue links. GEO is about whether an AI assistant recommends you inside its answer. Babel42 measures the second one directly, by sending AI Buyers to shop your category to a real decision.

Can I buy AI Visibility on its own?

Yes. AI Visibility is a standalone product with its own plans, and every account includes a free Social Listening account, so you can see the real conversation behind the AI answer.

Which AI assistants do you track?

Seven. ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Grok shop your category to a decision, and Google's AI Overviews and AI Mode are probed for appearance and citation. More are added as the assistants people actually use keep changing.
