Who runs this index

The CITE Index is built and published daily by [Cite Solutions, a managed GEO agency](/geo-agency), using the same measurement pipeline we run for client brands. If you want to know how your own brand shows up when buyers ask ChatGPT, Gemini, or Google AI Mode about flight & hotel otas or any other category, [run an AI visibility audit](/ai-visibility-audit) and get the same per-prompt receipts you see on this page.
