Every advertiser on your prompts, ranked
Each sponsored placement is unwrapped to the advertiser's real domain and matched against your tracked and detected brands, so a competitor buying your question shows up under their own name. The leaderboard ranks advertisers by placements with ad share of voice, average position, and week-over-week movement.
- Advertiser domains resolved from tracking links, not display text
- Ad share of voice and best position per advertiser, per surface
- Paid vs organic overlap: who earns the mention and buys it too
Which questions carry ads at all
The prompt view scores ad rate per tracked question: how many of its answers carried at least one sponsored placement, and whose. When a competitor's ad lands on a prompt where you rank organically, you see it the week it happens, and a new-advertiser alert can tell you without opening the app.
- Ad rate per prompt and per surface, window over window
- New-advertiser alerts by email, Slack, or Teams
- Ads section in scheduled reports for the weekly digest
Paid and organic on the same screen
Connect your own ChatGPT advertising account with a read-only API key, stored encrypted, and your campaign impressions, clicks, and spend appear beside your organic visibility on the same prompts. Google surfaces are part of weekly tracking; ChatGPT ad capture shares the consumer-surface add-on, and coverage banners always state what a window covers.
- Read-only campaign sync: impressions, clicks, and spend by day
- Rendered-only counting on consumer surfaces, no modeled ad data
- Coverage banners per surface, so absence of ads is a fact, not a gap
Ads in AI answers questions
Want a demo of Citlyze? Book a demo
Google AI Overviews and Google AI Mode carry sponsored results with structured labeling, and consumer ChatGPT shows sponsored cards to free-tier users in supported countries. Perplexity exited advertising, and Copilot has no reliably detectable ad format, so Citlyze makes no coverage claims there. The coverage banner on the Ads page always states exactly which surfaces the current window observed.
