What is VisitsFromAI?

VisitsFromAI measures and improves how AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude cite your website, channel, store, or other public destination — so you show up when people ask for recommendations in your category.

Which platforms can I scan?

You can run visibility scans and ongoing Boost for websites, YouTube, Shopify, Etsy, Amazon, Google Business Profile, and dozens of other platforms where your brand publishes. Start with a free estimate on any supported destination.

What is the free estimate?

The free estimate checks how clearly AI can identify and summarize your destination, then gives you an instant visibility band with top issues — no credit card required. A full analysis with live AI testing unlocks when you start a trial.

How is AI visibility (GEO/AEO) different from traditional SEO?

Traditional SEO optimizes for search-engine rankings and clicks. AI visibility — the practice known as Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) or Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) — focuses on whether assistants name and link you in conversational answers, which depends on structured data, consistent entities, citation-ready content, and cross-platform authority signals.

What do paid Boost plans include?

Paid Boost plans keep your destinations machine-readable with visibility refreshes, account-wide tracked AI prompts, prompt monitoring, and competitor alerts. Solo starts with one destination and monthly checks; Growth and Scale add more destinations and weekly monitoring.

Will this help with Substack's Notes algorithm or in-app recommendations?

Different system. Notes rewards activity generated inside Substack's app. Boost targets what ChatGPT and Claude say when someone asks for the best newsletter on a topic — a conversation Substack's own recommendation engine can't reach.

I built my audience on LinkedIn or X, not inside Notes — does that hurt me here?

It can hurt you inside Substack's own algorithm, which favors writers who stay in the app. AI answer engines don't work that way — they read your published archive and off-platform proof directly, wherever your audience came from.

I already have paying subscribers — why doesn't AI recommend my newsletter?

Subscribers prove you to your existing list, not to a model deciding who to cite when someone asks "best newsletter for X." Boost makes your publication machine-readable for those answers.

Will you touch my posts, Notes, or restacks?

No. Boost operates entirely through our off-platform network — we never access or modify your publication. We build entity signals and training-data coverage AI reads based on your public content, with no account access required.

Does one new paid subscriber a month pay for this?

At $9/month, a single paid conversion from an AI-sourced reader covers the entire year.
