There are 2 spots, because 2 is how many appear in the answer. Rank between them is your bid and nothing else — and it leaks 8% every day, so what you paid is not what you hold and a spot held is a spot topped up. The floor climbs $5 at every midnight UTC, which makes today the cheapest this ever gets. None of it touches the measured ranking.

The last 3 columns are real ChatGPT answers. We asked it the question at the top of this page 3 times, a new chat each time, and counted each answer the same way we count an article: it either named the tool or it did not.

How this is measured, and what is for sale
The measured ranking. We read the 6 articles that rank on search for this buying question — the pages an assistant retrieves when someone asks it — and counted every product each one names. A tool's score is how many of those 6 name it. That is the whole method, and none of it is for sale.
The exact question behind this page:
What are the best AI visibility tools in 2026? I run marketing at a B2B SaaS company and I want to track and improve whether ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity recommend us. Give me your actual recommendations.

Those 6 came from Claude Code WebSearch tool (US-region results, not signed in) (en-US) on 2026-08-26, searching: "best AI search visibility GEO tools 2026 get cited by ChatGPT Perplexity brand monitoring". 2 result(s) ranked but were excluded — see data/sources.json for why. The question was reworded on 2026-08-29, after these were chosen. A selection check on 2026-08-30 searching "best AI visibility tools 2026" found 1 of 6 still ranking, and no independent source among the pages that do. The board below is still the earlier reading, not a new one.
The sponsored block, in full. There are exactly 2 spots for sale, because 2 is how many show up in the answer — we do not sell a rank that appears nowhere. Rank between them is your standing, highest first. Your standing is what you paid minus 8% of it every day, so holding a spot means topping it up. The floor to get on starts at $10 and climbs $5 every midnight UTC, capped at $99. Get outbid and you pay only the difference to climb back; there are no refunds. It is an auction, it is labelled on every row, and it moves nothing in the measured ranking.
If you are outbid you are not deleted — you keep your standing and show on the board as waiting, with the exact top-up that would put you back in the answer. Be aware that waiting alone will not promote you: every standing decays by the same 8% each day, so the order between bidders who are already holding does not change on its own. Rank moves when someone pays, and only then.
A red square in the ranking means that article is published by the tool in that row. 5 of the 6 articles rank themselves first.
