What it shows

The Citations page (/dashboard/citations) aggregates every URL that AI engines cited across your tracked prompts. Each row shows:

• The URL and its domain
• Source type classification (news, review, owned, social, forum, listicle, vendor)
• Number of times it was cited in the last 30 days
• Which prompts triggered it
• Whether your brand was mentioned in that citation’s content

​

Source classification

Ansvisor automatically classifies citations into seven categories:

How to use it

​

Find your earned-media wins

Sort by times cited descending → filter by source type: news, review, listicle. Anything in the top 20 is doing meaningful AEO work for you.

​

Find your defensive gaps

Filter by source type: vendor → these are competitor pages that AI engines cite when answering questions in your category. Each one is an opportunity for a counter-piece.

​

Identify outreach targets

Filter by source type: review, listicle → look for high-traffic articles where your brand is not mentioned. Those are direct outreach targets — ask for inclusion.
