Your audience isn’t discovering brands the way they used to. They’re no longer just typing keywords into Google and browsing links.

​
Instead, they are:

AI Overviews

Seeing direct answers inside AI Overviews

ChatGPT & Gemini

Asking ChatGPT and Gemini for recommendations

Perplexity AI

Using Perplexity AI to research, compare, and validate decisions
People are having conversations with AI instead of searching with keywords. This fundamentally changes how visibility works. Your brand is no longer competing for rankings. You are competing to be included, recommended, and trusted inside AI-generated answers. MentionPilot shows you exactly how your brand appears across these AI platforms — and what you can do to improve your visibility.
