Find the gap. Close the loop.
Your customers are asking AI who to hire. Ciclo tells you whether ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity recommend your business, who they recommend instead, and the exact pages those answers were built from.

How it works
The audit is a photograph. The product is the loop.
An audit shows you one snapshot. On a plan, these four steps run on a schedule and each one feeds the next.
We ask the AI models the same questions your customers ask, and write down which businesses get named. Being mentioned is not the same as being recommended, so we only count the recommendation. Monthly on Solo, weekly on Growth and above.
When you appear or disappear, we show you the pages the answer was built from: the directory that stopped listing you, the new “top 10” article you are not on, the review page with the wrong address.
Each fix arrives already written: the profile text to paste, the correction to file, the outreach email with the contact already found. Your office reviews and approves. Ciclo drafts, submits and tracks, and you approve. The near-term goal is that the fix takes twenty minutes instead of twenty hours.
A few weeks after a fix goes live we ask the same questions again, so you can see the before and after and know whether it actually moved you.
What the trial includes
A query is one question a customer would actually type.
Not a keyword. A whole sentence, the way a person asks it: “who are the best pool builders in Tampa”, “how much should a kitchen renovation cost”, “how do I know if a Botox injector is qualified”. We write a list of those questions for your service and your area, then ask three AI models each one and record the answers.
Your first results run the moment you sign up, on a short set of questions, while the full question list builds behind them. The list is written for your trade. See the ones we use for pool builders, remodelers and med spas.
Every trial account contains
Every query in the list, written out, so you can see exactly what was tested and add the ones we missed.
For each question: were you named, who was named instead, and by which model.
Every source the models read, listed by name, with your status on each one: listed, missing, unclaimed, or wrong details.
What to do first, who has to do it, and roughly how long each one takes. Exportable, so you can hand it to a partner or to your agency.
Sources, not scores
Nine sources. Three you’re on.
Asked who to hire, a model does not rank company websites. It builds the answer out of directories, ranked listicles, review platforms and community threads. Your business is either named on those pages or it is not. Below is one worked example, from a law firm. Every trade gets the same table, built from the sources that actually feed its answers.

| Your own website | Owned | Not cited | Three question-shaped pages drafted20 min |
Your own site is the last row for a reason. Models answering "who is the best X near me" mostly do not read company websites. They read the pages above it.
Who it’s for
Built for one trade at a time.
A horizontal tool gives you a score. A vertical one knows which nine pages matter in your city and what it takes to get on each. Pick your trade and see the real questions your buyers ask.

Pricing
Metered on the questions we track, not on seats.
Every plan asks ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity. The number of questions, service types, cities and locations sets the tier. Everyone on your team gets a login, because the owner, the office manager and your outside agency all want to look. Monthly, no contract.
- Service type
- One thing you sell that gets researched on its own. The test is whether the models name a different set of businesses when you ask about each. When they do, being recommended for one tells you nothing about the other, so each gets its own question list and its own result.
- Inground pools / outdoor kitchensBotox / laser hair removalTruck accidents / slip and fall
Solo
50 tracked questions, 1 metro, 3 service types, monthly re-measurement, competitor set, unlimited seats.
14 days free. Cancel before day 14 and you are not charged.
Growth
150 tracked questions, every service type, weekly re-measurement, full citation source map, change alerts.
14 days free. Cancel before day 14 and you are not charged.
Multi-location
350 tracked questions, unlimited metros, 5 location rollups, compliance audit, exports and API.
14 days free. Cancel before day 14 and you are not charged.
Done-with-you
We file the corrections and run the outreach. Custom question universe, drafted profiles and pages, compliance review, dedicated contact. Ciclo drafts, submits and tracks, and you approve.
The engine is the same in every trade. What changes is the question list and the map of which sources actually feed the answers. Another trade? Tell us what you sell and we will show you the questions we would track for it.
Questions
Common questions
How do I know if ChatGPT recommends my business?
Ask it the questions your customers ask, repeatedly, and record which businesses get named. A single answer is not a signal, because models vary between sessions. Ciclo runs a fixed list of your buyers’ real questions against ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity on a schedule and reports how often you are in the recommended set, split by service type and city.
Is AI visibility the same as SEO?
No. SEO is about ranking your own pages. When a model answers "who are the best pool builders in Tampa" it usually is not reading company websites at all. It synthesizes from directories, ranked listicles, review platforms and community threads. So the work is getting your business correctly listed on the pages the model actually reads, which is a different job with a different checklist.
What is the difference between being mentioned and being recommended?
Being mentioned means your name appears somewhere in the answer. Being recommended means you are in the short list the model hands the buyer. Only the second one produces a phone call, so it is the only one Ciclo counts.
Can you guarantee I will show up in ChatGPT?
No, and nobody can. What is controllable is whether you appear, correctly and completely, on the sources the models cite for your questions. Ciclo finds those sources, gets you onto them, then re-runs the same questions so you can see whether it moved.
How long does a change take to show up?
Usually weeks rather than days. A directory correction has to be indexed and the model’s sources refreshed. That is why re-measurement is part of the product rather than a one-off report.
What do I see on day one?
Results, not a waiting screen. Your first questions run against three models at signup and the answers appear while you watch. The full question list and the source map build behind them over the first day.
What happens if I cancel?
Nothing is charged if you cancel before day 14. Anything already produced, including your question list, the cited sources and the fix list, is exportable and yours to keep.
The trial is free. The invisibility isn’t.
Enter your business, your city and what you sell, and the first questions run against ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity while you watch. You will see who is recommended instead of you, which pages those answers were built from, and what it takes to get on each one.
14 days free. Cancel before day 14 and you are not charged.
