AI brand visibility diagnosis
What an AI brand visibility audit should answer
An AI brand visibility audit checks whether large language models can identify your company, describe it correctly, and place it in the right recommendation set when buyers ask category, use case, vendor, or comparison questions.
The audit should not stop at a simple mention count. A useful report separates presence, position, sentiment, source quality, and factual accuracy so the team can see whether the brand is absent, misunderstood, or being outranked by competitors.

What MagUp measures
MagUp builds a prompt library around your real demand scenarios, then tests brand visibility across major AI answer engines. Each answer is scored for brand mention, recommendation rank, answer context, citation source, competitor presence, and accuracy.
The result is a practical map of where AI already recognizes your brand and where content, citations, or trust signals need to be improved.

FAQ
Questions this page answers
What is AI brand visibility?
AI brand visibility is how often and how accurately your brand appears in AI-generated answers for relevant buyer prompts.
How is it different from SEO visibility?
SEO visibility measures search rankings and clicks. AI visibility measures whether answer engines mention, cite, and recommend your brand directly.
What should I do after the audit?
Prioritize the prompts where competitors appear but your brand is absent, then build source-backed content that closes those gaps.
