The Problem We Solve​

The Search Landscape Has Changed Forever​

For 25 years, Google dominated search. If you wanted to be found online, you optimized for Google's algorithm. The playbook was clear: keywords, backlinks, technical SEO, and you'd rank on page one.

That era is ending.

By the numbers:

  • ChatGPT: 800M+ weekly active users (Jan 2025)
  • Perplexity: 100M+ monthly queries
  • Google Gemini: Integrated into search for 1B+ users
  • Claude: Rapidly growing enterprise adoption
  • Microsoft Copilot: Built into Windows and Office

User behavior shift:

2020: "Let me Google that"
2025: "Let me ask ChatGPT"
2027: 50-60% of queries go to AI systems (projected)

The Visibility Crisis​

Here's the problem: Most businesses have no idea if AI systems cite their content.

Critical questions with no answers:

  • ❓ When someone asks ChatGPT about your industry, are you mentioned?
  • ❓ Does Claude cite your competitor as the authority instead of you?
  • ❓ Is your brand even in Gemini's training data?
  • ❓ When Perplexity answers product questions, who gets cited?

Traditional SEO tools can't answer these questions. They track Google rankings, not AI citations.

What is UnrealSEO​

UnrealSEO is the first comprehensive platform built for the AI search era.

Our Mission​

Make your content visible and authoritative to AI systems, ensuring your brand is cited when LLMs answer questions in your domain.

What We Do​

1. Track LLM Visibility Monitor real-time citations across:

  • ChatGPT (OpenAI)
  • Claude (Anthropic)
  • Gemini (Google)
  • Perplexity AI
  • Microsoft Copilot
  • Other emerging LLM platforms

2. Analyze Citation Patterns Understand:

  • Which topics you're cited for (and which you're not)
  • Position in AI responses (primary source vs buried footnote)
  • Citation accuracy and sentiment
  • Trends over time

3. Benchmark Competitors Compare your AI visibility against:

  • Direct competitors
  • Industry leaders
  • Market share in AI-generated answers

4. Optimize for AI Citation Get actionable recommendations:

  • Content structure improvements
  • Semantic markup and schema
  • Authority signal enhancements
  • Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) techniques

How It Works​

Step 1: Query Generation​

UnrealSEO generates hundreds of natural language queries based on your industry, products, and target topics.

Example for a SaaS company:

- "What are the best project management tools for remote teams?"
- "How does [YourProduct] compare to Asana?"
- "What features should I look for in task management software?"
- "Who are the top CRM providers for small businesses?"

Step 2: Multi-LLM Testing​

We send these queries to multiple AI platforms simultaneously:

Query: "What are the best email marketing platforms?"
    ↓
├─> ChatGPT (GPT-4)
├─> Claude (Opus/Sonnet)
├─> Gemini (Pro/Ultra)
├─> Perplexity (Sonar)
└─> Copilot (GPT-4 Turbo)

Step 3: Citation Analysis​

For each response, we analyze:

  • ✅ Citation presence: Was your brand mentioned?
  • 📊 Position: Primary source, secondary, or footnote?
  • 🎯 Context: What was the context of the mention?
  • ⭐ Sentiment: Positive, neutral, or negative?
  • 🔗 Accuracy: Was the information correct?
