AI-search citation,
audited & signed.
ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Claude now answer questions about your brand before a single user reaches your site. We read how the engines see you, propose the structured-data and entity fixes that actually move citations, and ship none of them until you approve.
Built for multilingual SMBs across Europe, the UK and Morocco. Eight deterministic audit signals, a signed governance pact between you and us, an append-only audit log of every change. Reversible for 30 days. The brands the engines cite are the ones that earned it.
The control plane for AI-search visibility.
Six capabilities, one product. Each is deterministic, auditable, and rolls back cleanly. No magic, no auto-publish, no surprises.
Eight deterministic audits
HTML/AEO legibility, Schema.org JSON-LD against 969 canonical types, hreflang reciprocity, PageSpeed, CrUX, Search Console, GEO citation rate (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini), Wayback archival. Fail-closed on missing credentials.
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
69 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
Audit hreflang reciprocity and entity coherence across every language variant - DK, EN, FR, AR. 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. EU AI Act-aligned by design, August 2026 ready.
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.
Four steps. Each one writes to the record.
Nothing reaches your CMS without your approval. The architecture refuses to auto-publish.
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" }
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 }
Audit, deterministically
Eight checks, repeatable. Scores feed a trend, budgets, and alerts. Fail-closed when credentials are missing. No silent zeros.
POST /audits/run · /audits/html · /audits/schema
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
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

What the catalogue holds today.
Real counts from production, not slides. Updated on each audit sweep.
One brand is a node. The network is the product.
Citetome runs on Loomgraph, 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.
Entity catalogue
Every canonical entity, addressable by stable @id. The surface AI engines crawl.
Posture & audit log
Live policies, append-only event log, GDPR Article 17 erasure endpoint. Public.
Customer console
Per-tenant operator dashboard. Audit history, approval queue, score trend.
Live 3D globe
Interactive portfolio view. See member sites, monitored links, pending approvals.
LLMs registry
The llms.txt file AI crawlers fetch first. What the network surfaces to them.
Loomgraph engine
The agentic SEO graph that powers Citetome. Crawl, propose, approve, publish.
Fixed-fee. No metered surprises.

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. 141 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.
Five days. One audit. Zero commitment.
If the catalogue is for you, we sign the pact and continue. If not, you keep the report.
