What are the steps?
AI Visibility Gap Audit (Onboarding)
- 01
Define the client's core topic clusters and priority queries
Map the three to five topic clusters that drive the client's revenue, then list the specific queries a buyer would ask an AI assistant about those topics.
- 02
Run baseline visibility checks across at least two AI engines
Use a platform like KIME or Pallix to record whether the client is cited, mentioned, or absent for each priority query in ChatGPT and Perplexity.
- 03
Capture competitor citations for the same query set
For each query, log which competitor domains, Reddit threads, or YouTube videos the AI engine cites, noting the source type and frequency.
- 04
Compare AI visibility against traditional search rankings
Pull the client's current Google rankings for the same keywords from a tool like SpyFu and flag any query where the client ranks on page one but is missing from AI answers.
- 05
Identify citation gaps and adjacent topic coverage holes
Cross-reference the AI citations with the client's content library to find topics where competitors are cited but the client has no relevant page or post.
- 06
Document the gap analysis in a client-facing report
Summarize the visibility scores, competitor benchmarks, and specific content gaps, then prioritize the top five opportunities by revenue potential and effort.
