# Howseen AI > Howseen AI helps brands track, measure and improve how they are recommended across the major AI answer engines: ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Google AI Mode. It shows where your brand appears in AI answers, how you compare to competitors prompt by prompt, and generates GEO-optimized content that gets you cited. Site: https://howseen.ai App: https://app.howseen.ai Contact: raphael@howseen.ai ## What Howseen does Howseen is a GEO platform (Generative Engine Optimization), not an SEO tool. SEO is about ranking on Google. GEO is about being named and recommended inside AI answers. Google ranking and AI citation are decoupled: a page that ranks low on Google can be heavily cited by AI, and being first on Google guarantees nothing in an AI answer. Core capabilities: - Track your brand's visibility, share of voice and sentiment across AI answer engines over time. - See, prompt by prompt, when an AI recommends you versus a competitor, and who is winning each buyer question. - Run a technical GEO audit of your site (robots.txt, sitemap, llms.txt, schema, crawlability for AI bots). - Get 360 off-page recommendations (Reddit, comparison articles, reviews, media, video) grounded in how AI engines actually pick sources. - Generate GEO-optimized articles that get your brand cited, and publish them to your CMS (one-click to WordPress, Shopify, Ghost and BigCommerce, or via webhook, API feed or a hosted blog). - Query your own Howseen data from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor through the Howseen MCP server (26 tools, read only by default) or the REST API: https://howseen.ai/mcp. Integrations: https://howseen.ai/integrations. MCP use cases: https://howseen.ai/mcp-use-cases ## AI answer engines tracked - ChatGPT (OpenAI): all plans - Gemini (Google): all plans - Google AI Overviews: all plans - Perplexity: Pro and Business - Google AI Mode: Pro and Business - Claude (Anthropic): Business only, every 3 days on up to 50 buyer questions ## Who it is for - SaaS and B2B brands that want to be the answer when a buyer asks an AI which tool to use. - E-commerce brands that want to be recommended when shoppers ask AI what to buy. - Marketing agencies that manage AI visibility for multiple clients (multi-brand and white-label reporting). ## Why it matters - Buyers increasingly ask AI assistants what to use or buy before they ever reach a search results page. - Brand mentions across the web weigh heavily in what AI recommends, often more than backlinks. - Community and review sources (for example Reddit) are cited disproportionately by AI answer engines. - Recent, well-structured content is favored, so visibility is won and lost continuously, not once. - The GEO window is early: the brands working on AI visibility now take positions that late movers pay more to reclaim. ## How it works 1. Connect your brand and site. Howseen prepares your workspace: it runs a first multi-engine scan, crawls your site and drafts starting content. 2. Your dashboard fills with real data: visibility score, share of voice, sentiment, competitor comparison and the prompts where you appear or are missing. 3. The action plan turns gaps into concrete, prioritized moves across on-page and off-page channels. 4. You generate GEO-optimized articles and publish them to your CMS. 5. Tracking re-runs every 3 days, or daily on Business (20 to 300 buyer questions depending on plan) so KPIs evolve and you can see progress by date. ## Pricing - Self-serve: Starter €39/mo (€31/mo annual, €372/year): 20 buyer questions, 3 engines, every 3 days, 4 articles/month, 1 site, 3 competitors.
