AI search answers first.
Make it cite you.

ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Claude answer questions about your brand before a single user reaches your site. Most tools only watch it happen. We audit how the engines read you, fix the structured-data and entity signals that win citations, and prove every change in a signed audit log.

Built for multilingual SMBs across Europe, the UK and Morocco - reviewed by a human strategist in English, French, Arabic and Danish. Every change logged, reversible for 30 days.

The control plane for AI-search visibility.

Six capabilities, one product. Each is auditable, logged, and rolls back cleanly. No magic, no auto-publish, no surprises.

Six automated audit checks

Run on every sweep. AI agents are starting to transact, not just answer - so the bench scores how machines read you and whether they could act on you.

Signed governance pact

Per-site, version-pinned, sha256-gated. Every mutation lands in an append-only audit log with hashed actor IDs. Revocation is one endpoint away.

Knowledge graph

A growing knowledge graph of canonical entities. Schema.org JSON-LD per entity URL. Wikidata sameAs anchors. Cross-link engine proposes entity-justified edges between member sites.

Multilingual entity consistency

Hreflang reciprocity and entity coherence reviewed in EN, FR, AR and DA - by a human strategist who reads all four, not machine translation. Most auditors don't touch this. We treat it as foundational.

GDPR Article 17 erasure

A single endpoint tombstones a site's subject data while preserving the hashed event trail. Built with EU AI Act transparency obligations in mind - versioned governance, sha256-gated policies, append-only decision log.

Regression alerts

Per-source budgets with 10pt tolerance. Daily delta. budget_breach / regression / streak_recovery events. Idempotent dedup per period. Webhook delivery on the way.

02 · How it works

Four steps. Each one writes to the record.

Nothing reaches your CMS without your approval. The architecture refuses to auto-publish.

01

Register your domain

We fetch your sitemap, parse robots.txt, detect the CMS type. Locale, currency, country noted. You're in the registry.

POST /sites { "tenant_id": "you", "domain": "yoursite.com" }
02

Sign the pact

Version-pinned governance pact, sha256-gated. Every mutation from here lands in an append-only audit log with a hashed actor ID.

POST /governance/pact/sign { "site_id": N }
03

Audit, then review

Six automated checks per sweep, reviewed by a human before anything ships. Scores feed a trend, budgets, and alerts. Fail-closed when credentials are missing. No silent zeros.

POST /audits/run · /audits/html · /audits/schema
04

Propose, you approve

Entity-justified cross-links, schema fixes, a back-of-folio list. Proposals land in a queue. Your infra pulls approved changes.

GET /sites/{id}/approved
DEVELOPER API

Programmable, by design.

Every audit, every entity, every approval is reachable via a clean REST surface. HMAC-keyed, rate-limited, content-negotiated. api.citetome.com

Benchmark · Danish AI Visibility Index

June 2026: we audited 38 Danish SMB websites.

Five industries, scored by the engine, reviewed by a human. Anonymized aggregates only - we never name audited companies.

Not one of the 38 audited sites publishes the structured prices, availability or opening hours an AI agent needs to act. Whoever publishes them first, wins the citations.

04 · Network

One brand is a node. The network is the product.

Citetome runs on a knowledge-graph engine that links member sites through shared entities. The more sites cite the same canonical entity, the more weight it carries in AI search. Public surfaces below.

FAQ

Common questions.

What does Citetome actually do?

We audit your website for AI-search readability, fix the structured-data and entity signals that ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Claude rely on for citation, and run a governance trail so every change is signed, audit-logged and reversible.

How is this different from regular SEO?

Regular SEO optimises for keyword ranking. Citetome optimises for entity legibility - whether AI search systems can identify, cite and trust your brand. Both matter; the AI-search citation layer is what's new and unowned for SMBs in 2026.

Will you write to my CMS automatically?

No. Architectural rule. Proposals land in an approval queue. A human approves. Your own infrastructure pulls approved changes. We never auto-publish.

Why does the governance trail matter?

EU AI Act enforcement begins August 2026. Regulated SMBs - legal, finance, healthtech - need an auditable record of every change made to their AI-search visibility. We sign a pact with each member site, write every proposal and approval to an append-only log, and support GDPR Article 17 erasure on demand.

AEO or GEO? Which one is this?

Both. AEO (answer-engine optimization) covers featured snippets, voice search, and Google AI Overviews - the "extract a direct answer" layer. GEO (generative-engine optimization) covers ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Copilot - the "synthesize and cite a brand" layer. Citetome audits, fixes, and governs both, because in 2026 the same SMB needs the same brand to be readable, citeable, and trustworthy across every machine reader.

Who's behind it?

Solo-founded in Copenhagen, built on Fly.io with a Python + FastAPI + SQLModel stack. 257 automated tests passing. Pricing validated by an external advisor with European SaaS experience. Markets served: Denmark, the UK, Morocco, and any multilingual SMB with the same problem.
