AI Source Builder · one-time · from $69 a placement
Get listed where AI engines get their answers
AI Source Builder lists your company on the sites ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Grok cite when buyers ask about your category. We take the list from our own scans, build or correct each listing by hand, hand you every login, and rescan to show what changed.
Most of the answer is decided on other sites
When an engine cites its sources, most of them are not the websites of the companies it names. In our latest published scans, 98% of citations went to other sites: review platforms, directories, publishers, video and forums. Being listed on the right ones is the part of AI visibility you can act on this month.

Counted from the stored answers of each category’s latest public scan across six engines. “Other sites” means any site that is not the website of a company on that category’s leaderboard. Which sites they are is in your free source audit.
How it works
- 01 · Free
Source audit
We take the sites the six engines cited in your category's latest scan and check each one for you: listed correctly, listed with wrong details, or missing. You get the list, ranked by how many engines cite each site.
- 02 · You approve first
Build and correct
We create the missing profiles and fix the wrong ones, by hand, on every site in your order that accepts company listings. Nothing goes live until you have approved the description, categories and links.
- 03 · You own everything
Verify and hand over
A final report with every live link and its status, and the login for every listing. The listings are yours: they stay up whether or not you work with us again.
- 04 · Measured, not promised
Rescan
Your category's next scan shows how often answers that cite those sites now name you. A listing makes you citable; whether an engine cites it is the engine's call, so we measure it rather than promise it.
Paid once, per placement
A placement is one listing created, or one existing listing corrected. No subscription, and you keep every listing. Start with the free audit; it shows how many placements your category needs before you spend anything.
Express: every placement submitted within 2 business days of your approval, 25% more. Standard is 10 business days. Invoiced after you approve the audit. Agencies on White Label can resell it under their own name at partner prices.
Included in every placement
- Profiles created with your approved description, categories, logo, links and contact details
- Wrong or outdated details corrected on profiles you already have
- Duplicate profiles found and flagged, with the steps to merge or remove them
- Every login handed over, set up on an email address you control
- A final report: site, link, status and date for every placement
What we never do
- Buy, write or incentivise reviews
- Pay for a place in an editorial article or roundup
- Create accounts in anyone's name but yours
- List you anywhere a site's own rules don't allow
How it compares with citation building
Citation services list businesses on directories and publisher networks. AI Source Builder picks the sites from what the engines cited in your category’s latest scan, so the list is different for every category.
| Service | What it builds | How sites are chosen | Published price | You keep the listings |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Get AI Cited AI Source Builder | B2B company profiles and listings | The sites the six AI engines cited in your category’s latest scan | $69 a placement; 10 for $590; 25 for $1,250 | Yes, with logins, a final report and a rescan |
| BrightLocal Citation Builder | Local business listings on 1,000+ directories and niche sites | You pick the sites; sorted by Domain Authority | $3.20 per citation, $2 with bulk credits | Yes, with logins and a final report |
| Whitespark Listings Service | Local listings: new listings plus cleanup of existing ones | Packages of general and industry or regional sites | $399 to $999 per location; custom from $20 | Yes, with logins and a report |
| Yext | Listings managed through its publisher network | Its network of publishers | Custom pricing, typically billed annually | Listings stay live, but Yext stops managing them when you cancel; some publishers roll back details |
Taken from each company’s own pages on 2 November 2026, linked above, in US dollars. BrightLocal and Whitespark describe their services as for local search, and Yext distributes listings to its publisher network; we list them because buyers compare the two.

Questions
What is AI Source Builder?
A one-time service that lists your company on the sites AI engines cite when buyers ask about your category. We choose the sites from our own scans of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Grok, build or correct each listing by hand, and hand over every login.
Which sites will you list us on?
The sites the engines cited in your category's latest scan that accept company listings: usually software and service review platforms, industry directories, marketplaces and business data providers. Your free source audit names every one, ranked by how many engines cite it, before you order anything.
How is this different from local citation building?
Local citation services list a business on directories and publisher networks used for local search. AI Source Builder is for B2B companies and picks the sites from what the AI engines cited in your category's latest scan, so the list is different for every category.
Will a listing get us cited?
It makes you citable on a site the engines already use; it does not oblige any engine to cite it. That is why the last step is a rescan: you see how often answers that cite those sites name you, measured the same way as your Cited Score.
How long does it take?
Your free audit arrives within 2 business days. Placements are submitted within 10 business days of your approval, or 2 with Express. Most sites publish within one to three weeks; a few take up to six.
What if a site turns a listing down or never publishes it?
We switch that placement to the next site on your audit list, at no extra cost, and tell you which one before we submit. A placement counts as not published if the site rejects it or it isn't live within eight weeks of submission.
Do we own the listings?
Yes. Every account is set up on an email address you control and the login is handed over in the final report. There is no subscription, and nothing comes down if you stop working with us.
Do you write or buy reviews?
No. We never buy, write or incentivise reviews, and never pay for a place in an editorial article. If a site needs reviews to rank you, the audit says so and leaves that to you and your customers.
What if our category isn't measured yet?
We build it first: the buyer questions for your market, checked with you, then a scan of all six engines. The audit follows from that scan.
