Position Digital

Secure Placements in the Sources AI Cites With AI Citation Outreach Service

We find the pages ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, and Google's AI Overviews already cite for your buyers' questions, then earn your brand a place on them.

Show up in the sources AI trusts

AI answers are built from other people's pages

When a buyer asks ChatGPT, Claude, or AI Mode for recommendations, it reads dozens of third-party pages and summarizes the brands they see most often. If you're missing from those pages, you're missing from the answer.

Using ListBrew, our proprietary AI citation outreach tool, we run the prompts your buyers are asking and track every source AI platforms cite in their answers. Then, we identify the authors and editors behind those pages and send personalized pitches to get your brand featured.

We track whether those mentions grow your AI visibility

Getting featured is only half the job. Every week, we re-run the same prompts to see whether those placements actually lead to more mentions and citations in AI answers.

We start from the answer, not from a list of high-authority domains

Outreach aimed at the pages AI already cites

Traditional link building chases domain authority. Citation outreach starts from the pages already influencing LLM answers. We begin by researching the prompts your target audience uses and running those prompts across AI platforms you want to target. We then list all the cited pages and prioritize them by relevance, before running targeted outreach campaigns to get your brand featured there.

Special things you get working with us:

  • A team of outreach experts with 7+ years of experience
  • Access to ListBrew, our own AI citation outreach tool
  • Targeted placements in listicles, review sites, and editorial content that AI already cites
  • Monthly reporting of all mentions secured and how they impact AI visibility

AI tools build their answers by identifying brands mentioned in the sources they cite, whether those mentions are linked or not. That means unlinked brand mentions can still boost your visibility in AI answers.

But backlinks remain an important ranking factor for Google. That's why we prioritize both in our outreach campaigns: getting your brand mentioned in the sources AI trusts and earning links that strengthen your organic search performance.

Some Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is AI citation outreach?

    AI citation outreach is the process of finding the third-party pages AI platforms cite when they answer questions about your category, then earning your brand a mention on those pages through editorial outreach. The goal is for ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, and Google's AI Overviews to name your brand when buyers ask for recommendations.

  • Do you offer AI citation outreach services in the United States?

    Yes. Our team is based in London, and we run AI citation outreach for B2B and SaaS brands in the United States as well as the UK and Europe. We've worked with US clients such as Proven Partners. For US campaigns, we run your prompts from a US location, so we see the answers your American buyers get, and we pitch the US publications, review sites, and listicles that AI cites for those searches.

  • Link building starts from websites with high authority and aims for a backlink. Citation outreach starts from the AI answer and works backward to the pages AI already cites for your target prompts. A backlink is welcome, but the mention itself is what changes the answer. Many clients run both, and one placement often serves both goals.

  • Which AI platforms do you cover?

    We mostly track major LLMs like ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, and Google's AI. But if you want to track other platforms like Grok, we can do that as well. Each platform cites different sources for the same question, so we map them separately and prioritize the pages that show up on more than one.

  • No. AI platforms read the text on a page, so an unlinked brand mention on a cited page can still get your brand into the answer. We ask for a link wherever it's natural, because it also supports your Google rankings.

  • Can you guarantee ChatGPT will mention my brand?

    No, and be wary of anyone who does. AI answers change constantly: in our AI Overview study, Google swapped at least one source for 52% of keywords on identical repeat searches. What we promise is a clear process, a target list built from real citation data, and monthly reporting on what changed.

  • How do you choose which prompts to target?

    We start with the questions buyers ask when they're close to a decision, such as "best X for Y," "X alternatives," and "X vs. Y." Then we check which of those prompts trigger citations in your category and which sources come up most often.

  • Do you pay for placements?

    No. Buying links or listicle spots to manipulate rankings breaks Google's spam policies. We earn placements by giving editors a genuine reason to include you, such as a real product difference, original data, or an expert quote.

  • How long until AI tools start mentioning us?

    Platforms that search the web in real time, like Perplexity, ChatGPT search, and AI Overviews, can pick up a new placement once the page is updated and recrawled. Placements land over the first few months of a campaign, and we re-run your prompts every week so you can see which ones AI has picked up.
