RankScope is the first platform built specifically for Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) — the discipline of getting your brand cited inside AI-generated answers, not just ranked in Google search results. As of 2026, a growing share of purchase decisions start with a question typed into ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, or Perplexity. The answer those AI engines give shapes perception before a buyer ever visits your site. RankScope tells you exactly what those engines are saying about your brand — and why. The platform tracks brand citations across all five major AI engines simultaneously. You see your share of voice (how often your brand appears vs competitors), citation rate per query, sentiment, and which sources the AI is pulling from. No other tool in the market covers all five engines in a single dashboard. The standout feature is forensic diff tracking — RankScope shows you exactly what changed in an AI engine's response day-over-day. Not just ""your score went down."
