Why does it matter what Perplexity says about your brand?
Buyers ask Perplexity which product or provider to choose, and every Perplexity answer lists the sources it used. The pages Perplexity cites shape which brands it names and how it describes them.
What does Visiby record for each Perplexity answer?
- Mention: whether the answer text names your brand.
- Citation: whether the answer links to a page on your domain. Mentions and citations are counted separately.
- Cited pages: every page and domain Perplexity cited, labelled as yours, a tracked competitor, or another site.
- Position (Pro and Agency): how your brand ranks against the other brands named in the same answer.
- Country: Perplexity answers are not location-targeted, so the country you choose during setup does not change them.
