Probeli AI
For local businesses

See who AI recommends when locals ask.

People ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Mode and Perplexity for a good dentist, plumber or café nearby. Probeli AI asks questions that name your city every day, shows who gets recommended and checks that AI can read your address, phone and hours.

7-day free trial, card required · 4 AI platforms, asked daily

Probeli AI's Overview with Webflow as the example brand over the last 30 days: 37% visibility (up 6 points), average sentiment 72, average position 2.1 and 1,936 mentions, what to do next (improve a blog page, get mentioned on techradar.com and forbes.com), a daily visibility chart against five competitors, Webflow's mentions and a ranking that puts Webflow second behind Wix.

Why it's hard

Local recommendations come from chats too.

Ask an assistant for a good electrician in town and you get a few names. They come from directories, review pages and the businesses' own websites.

Hoping for the best

Asking a chatbot about your town now and then.

  • A rival named, not you
  • Old hours or phone quoted
  • No record over time
  • Unknown which list was used

No way to tell whether a change helped.

Probeli AI's setup, step 3: ten buyer questions written for webflow.com as the example, such as “What's the best website builder for a small business?”, ready to edit.

Prompts for your area

Questions people in your area ask about your service, written for your market.

Competitor ranking with Webflow as the example brand over 30 days: Wix leads with 42% visibility and an average position of 1.7, Webflow is second with 37% and 2.1, followed by Framer, Squarespace, WordPress.com and Hostinger; two untracked brands AI keeps mentioning are suggested.

The businesses down the road

Your competitors, ranked by how often AI names them.

  • Your city in the questions

    Suggested prompts name your city. Answers are asked from your country.

  • Four languages

    Prompts and answers in English, French, German or Spanish.

  • Local competitors

    The rivals you want counted, with their names and websites.

2. Daily answers

See who AI recommends, every day.

Each prompt is asked on ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Mode and Perplexity once a day. Every answer is read for your business, your competitors and the pages it cites.

How we measure
  • ChatGPT
  • Gemini
  • Google AI Mode
  • Perplexity

Probeli AI's Overview with Webflow as the example brand over the last 30 days: 37% visibility (up 6 points), average sentiment 72, average position 2.1 and 1,936 mentions, what to do next (improve a blog page, get mentioned on techradar.com and forbes.com), a daily visibility chart against five competitors, Webflow's mentions and a ranking that puts Webflow second behind Wix.

Your visibility over time

The share of answers that name you, with position and sentiment.

A sample AI answer: asked “What's the best website builder for a small business?”, ChatGPT mentions Wix first and Webflow, the example brand, second, both highlighted, and cites four sources; Gemini mentions Webflow first, Google AI Mode only cites Webflow's website, and Perplexity doesn't mention it.

Read each answer

Who was recommended, in what order, and which pages were cited.

  • Direct and indirect

    Named in the answer, or on a directory page the answer cites.

  • Sentiment

    Whether each answer speaks well of you or not.

  • Drop alert

    An email when your visibility falls sharply within a week.

3. Local lists

Find the lists that name rivals, not you.

Directories, "best in town" lists and local guides shape who AI recommends. Get mentioned shows the pages cited for your prompts that name competitors but not you.

See Get mentioned

Insights with Webflow as the example brand: seven pages AI engines cite for its prompts that feature competitors but not Webflow, led by a top-priority review page on techradar.com cited by all four engines for five prompts; two are in progress and three completed, one of them automatically after the page started mentioning Webflow.

Pages to get onto

Ranked by how many of your prompts cite them, on how many platforms.

The websites AI engines cited most for Webflow's prompts in 30 days (Webflow as the example brand), led by reddit.com in 468 answers, Wix's site in 344 and g2.com in 301, with Webflow's own site in 262, and the 64 cited pages that mention Webflow by type: 21 brand websites, 19 tech and other sites, 16 social and 8 news.

The sources AI trusts

The sites cited most in answers about your area.

  • Ranked by priority

    Pages cited for more of your prompts, on more platforms, come first.

  • Next steps

    Each page comes with what you can do about it.

  • Marked done when you're named

    When a page starts naming you, its item is marked done.

4. Helpful pages

Helpful pages about your service.

How-tos, explainers and checklists on the questions people ask about your service. Each draft cites its sources, links your own pages where they fit and waits for your review.

See AI articles

The article editor with a sample article for Webflow as the example brand, “How to choose a website builder for a small business”: its opening paragraph and headings, the focus keyword with 6,600 searches a month and the outline.

A scored draft

Search, structure and trust checks, before anyone reads it.

The content calendar of Webflow as the example brand: this month in month view with an article planned every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, the earlier ones published or ready as drafts, and the Autopilot card on, writing 3 drafts a week for WordPress and showing how many of the month's articles it uses.

A plan you can keep

Topics placed on the days you publish.

  • Your own pages linked

    New articles link your own posts and guides in the sections they fit.

  • On your own site

    WordPress, Wix, Webflow and more, or copy it as HTML.

  • You approve first

    Drafts by default. Auto-publish is only for Autopilot, and only if you turn it on.

5. Contact details

Make your address, phone and hours clear to AI.

The free AI site audit runs 18 checks and adds local checks once it sees you serve an area. It looks for LocalBusiness markup, one phone number everywhere and opening hours in your markup.

See the AI site audit

The AI site audit for webflow.com as the example site: a score of 94 out of 100, rated Excellent and up 6 since the last audit, with 16 of 18 checks passed and nothing urgent; AI crawlers are allowed, there are no bot challenges and content is visible in the HTML, while structured data is the one high-priority fix.

Your score out of 100

How easily AI crawlers can reach, read and use your site.

  • LocalBusiness markup
  • Name, address and phone
  • Opening hours

Checks for local businesses

Added when the audit detects a local business. You can correct the category.

  • One set of details

    Flags a phone number that differs between your pages and your markup.

  • Opening hours

    Checks your hours are in the markup, not only written on the page.

  • Fixes, most useful first

    One list for your kind of site, each fix with why it matters and how.

Questions from local businesses.

See all questions
Which country and language are the questions asked in?

You pick your market when you set up a workspace: English, French, German or Spanish, and the country your customers are in. Probeli AI writes the prompts it suggests in that language and asks every prompt from that country, with that language setting. Perplexity takes only the country, so it answers in the language the prompt is written in.

Most countries are available. If you search for one our data provider doesn't cover yet, Probeli AI says so, and a territory such as Puerto Rico is asked from the country it belongs to.

For a local business you can also name a city: answers are still asked from the country you picked, and the suggested prompts name the city. For a business that sells worldwide, you choose the country answers are asked from. Each answer shows where it was asked from.

Owners and admins can change the market in Settings, and new answers use it from the next run. Older answers keep the market they were asked in, and your prompts stay as written. Workspaces set up before you could pick a market are asked from the United States in English, and their Overview asks an owner or admin to confirm or change that.

The Probeli AI app and its emails are available in English, German, Spanish and French, and dates show in your own time zone.

How is this different from asking ChatGPT myself?

Asking yourself shows one answer from one engine on one day, and AI answers change every time. Probeli AI asks the same prompts on 4 AI engines every day and turns the answers into trends you can compare with your competitors.

What does the AI site audit check?

The AI site audit runs 18 checks of how easily AI search engines and agents can crawl, read and use your website.

The checks come in three groups: content and structure (semantic HTML, titles, structured data), discovery and crawlability (robots.txt access for crawlers like OAI-SearchBot and PerplexityBot, sitemaps and llms.txt, bot challenges, JavaScript-only content) and developer and agent readiness.

The audit also works out what kind of site you have (an online shop, a local business, a SaaS product, a publisher or blog) and whether it covers a sensitive topic such as money, health or the law, from your business brief and the pages it reads. It then adds the checks that matter for that kind of site, such as product markup and visible prices for a shop, your address, phone and opening hours for a local business, a pricing page and docs for software, named authors and dates for a publisher, and expert authors, sources and disclaimers for sensitive topics. Technical checks look at page weight and render-blocking files, the mobile viewport, language versions (hreflang), redirect chains and conflicting canonical links. An owner or admin can correct the detected category at any time.

You get a score out of 100 for the core checks, and one list of fixes ranked by how much each helps your kind of site, each with why it matters and step-by-step instructions. The extra checks read only the pages the audit already fetches, so they don't add requests to your site.

How long does setup take?

A few minutes, with nothing to install. Enter your website and Probeli AI reads your homepage, finds your competitors (usually 10–30 seconds) and writes buyer prompts. You can edit both lists before you finish.

Your first AI answers usually arrive within 1–3 minutes, and you can leave the page while they're collected. Daily runs start about 24 hours later, at the same time of day.

Do I approve articles before they go live?

Yes. Every article arrives as a draft. You read it, edit it in the editor (or ask for an AI edit of a passage, a section or one of its subsections) and publish it when it's ready.

Autopilot plans and writes articles on a schedule you set, and shows what it will cost before it starts. By default its articles arrive as drafts too.
