See if AI
cites you
GeoCites asks AI models the questions your buyers ask, then shows when your brand appears, which competitors get named, and which markets need fixing.
What it checks
Brand mentions, buyer-intent prompts, local demand, and competitor substitutions.
What you get
A citation score, model-by-model evidence, missed prompts, and the phrases where competitors outrank you.
How to use it
Enter a domain and one buying keyword. Run free first, then bring OpenRouter when you need deeper coverage.
Run a scan
Geography
Markets are the places or contexts you test. Each checked market multiplies the keyword cost.

Free demo estimate
3 models x (2 core + 1 market x 2 keywords x 1 variation) = 12 calls
4 calls/model. Markets are exactly the boxes checked in Geography.
$0
Cost to you is zero. The shared demo key runs through a queue, so the free models demo keeps model count and question depth capped.

Frequently asked
What does GeoCites check? +
We send real prompts to AI models asking about your keyword, then analyze whether they mention, cite, or recommend your website in their responses.
Is this the same as SEO? +
No. SEO is about Google search rankings. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is about whether AI models cite you when people ask them questions. Both matter.
What if AI doesn't cite me? +
Add structured data (schema.org), create an llms.txt file, get mentioned on authority sites, and write answer-format content that AI can quote directly.
Why bring my own OpenRouter key? +
The public scan is useful for a baseline, but the realistic benchmark is GPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and similar models. BYOK lets you run those without paying GeoCites a markup.
Do you store my OpenRouter key? +
The server does not persist it. The browser keeps it in session storage so the scan page can use it, and saved results contain model outputs and scores, not your key.

GeoCites is a community tool, not a business line. If it saves you time and you want to support the people behind it, try AudioKids or ZetaRead if you have kids, or Djinn Chat if your team is starting to coordinate work with agents. Djinn Chat is open source. We mostly build tools we want to use ourselves.
