Questions, answered
Why does AI visibility matter for restaurants?
AI concierge answers decide tables — a shortlist of three, not a list of fifty. When diners ask ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Perplexity for a recommendation, the answer usually names only 2–5 businesses. If you're not one of them, that demand flows to a competitor — silently.
How do I check what ChatGPT says about my business?
You could paste questions in manually, engine by engine — or run one PingMyBrand scan: we ask the 25 questions diners actually ask, across 4 engines, and score every answer. Free, no signup, about 60 seconds.
Can restaurants improve their AI visibility?
Yes — AI engines lean on sources they trust: review platforms, "best of" listicles, comparison pages, and structured data on your own site. Your PingMyBrand report includes a ranked fix list showing exactly which of these you're missing.
Is this the same as SEO?
It's the successor. Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is about being present in AI answers, not ranked links. Good SEO helps, but AI engines weigh third-party evidence differently — which is why businesses with great Google rankings still score 20/100 on AI visibility.
