What Perplexity draws on

Being named starts with being in the sources the engine already reads.

Typical sources
  • Pages ranking in its own web index for the query
  • Publishers, documentation and reference sites
  • Reviews, comparisons and forums
  • Your own pages, when they answer the question directly

01Can you guarantee we will be mentioned in Perplexity?

No one can. We measure where you stand, improve the sources answers draw on and report what changed, with dates.

02How long does it take to see changes?

From weeks to months. Engines refresh their sources at different speeds; we log every change against a dated baseline.

03Should we block AI crawlers?

Training access and search access are separate decisions. Blocking search crawlers usually removes you from answers; we help you decide per crawler.

04Do you track other engines too?

Yes — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, each as its own line.
