    Global View turns cite-met into a presentation-ready command center. Every human, search crawler, and AI answer-engine hit rises off the map in real time, so you can put your traffic on the office TV and watch ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity find your pages as it happens.

    What We Do

    Built to be cited. Measured so you can prove it.

    cite-met hosts your site, checks what AI answer engines can read on it, and shows you who is reading it: humans, search, and AI crawlers, separated.

    We connect your repo and run your own build on Cloudflare's global network, give you a sensible robots.txt with one-click robots.txt and llms.txt fixes, check your sitemap, and track which AI crawlers are fetching your pages.

    One platform to host, optimize, and measure, run for you.

    A quick tour of the infrastructure behind your visibility.

    Your own build, on Cloudflare's edge.

    We connect your repo and run your own build on Cloudflare's edge when you publish, and add the measurement scripts at deploy time. Your pages are served as your build outputs them, so your words have to be in the HTML your build writes. The free scan checks that (CM-101). Redeploy Now reruns the build whenever you need it.

    Common Questions

    How can a small business check if ChatGPT can see its website?
    Run the free scan above. It checks what AI search crawlers need: that robots.txt doesn't block OAI-SearchBot (ChatGPT search), Claude-SearchBot or PerplexityBot, that your words are in the HTML the server sends, that the page can be indexed and quoted, and that the basics like HTTPS and a sitemap are in place. Each failing check links to a page explaining the fix. To see whether those crawlers actually fetch your pages, you need server-side data: cite-met shows it for sites it hosts, or you can search your server logs for their user agents.
    How much does AI search visibility cost for a small business?
    The checks are free: run the scan, read the AI Assistant channel in Google Analytics, and use the AI reports in Bing Webmaster Tools and Google Search Console. Self-serve AI mention trackers start around $29 a month and you do the work. cite-met is done for you: plans start at $60 a month for hosting, AI crawler analytics and fixes, and the Local plan at $300 a month adds content, local SEO and listings. See the pricing page for what each plan includes.
    What makes a page citable by AI?
    AI answer engines cite pages they can read and trust. That means HTML that already contains your words (so it works whether or not a crawler runs JavaScript), crawlers that aren't blocked in robots.txt, pages that are indexable, clear semantic structure, and a sitemap. Structured data and llms.txt are optional extras, and Google ignores llms.txt. The free scan checks your site against these requirements.
    How does cite-met help me get cited?
    We connect your repo and run your own build on Cloudflare's global network, give you a sensible robots.txt with one-click robots.txt and llms.txt fixes, and check your sitemap. Then we show you which AI crawlers fetched which pages, and separate your traffic into humans, search, and AI, so you can see what works and do more of it.
    Do I need to change my code?
    Not to host with us. We connect your GitHub repository, and when you publish, cite-met runs your own build and serves what it outputs, so your codebase stays unchanged. That also means your words have to be in the HTML your build writes. The free scan checks that (CM-101), and if they only appear after JavaScript runs, the fix is in your code.
    What does CITEMET stand for?
    CITEMET is a framework for AI visibility originally coined by SEO specialist Metehan. It stands for: Cited (your domain appears as a source link in AI answers), Memorable (people see your name often enough that they start typing it into follow-up questions), Effective (the clicks you do get carry more intent), and Trackable (you can point to numbers like citations, brand mentions, and share of voice). cite-met helps with the first and last: it checks that crawlers can read your pages and shows which AI crawlers fetched which pages. It does not count citations itself. cite-met.com is a separate hosting and analytics service made by XY Space, and it is not the Citemeter audit tool.
