The AI Search Tools Index
The AI Search Tools Index

Every tool for AI search visibility, ranked.

Every tool for AI search visibility, ranked — and what the AIs themselves say. We score 37 tools on a transparent capability rubric, then show what ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity actually recommend — which turns out to be the most revealing part: the assistants barely agree the category exists.

Claude

of its AI-tool picks are real category players

Ask Perplexity for AI-visibility tools and a third of its picks are real category players. Ask Claude and it's effectively zero — it answers with social-listening suites. That fragmentation is exactly the problem these tools exist to solve.

"AI mindshare" = how many of our 12+ buying-question tentpoles the assistants name this tool in. It measures recognition, not capability — the two diverge sharply.
