AI Citation Tracker

AI citation tracking with MCP, REST API, and dashboard history.

Save your buyer questions and repeat the same citation prompts weekly or monthly. Cite42 stores the source list and can watch one optional page to show whether it was cited and by which AI services.

  1. 01. CHECK TODAY'S SOURCES

    See which sources AI cites for one question.

    Ask one buyer question across the default AI services. See every distinct cited source, which services cited it, and whether a page you care about appears.

    You ask your AIWhich sources does AI cite for “best startup CRM,” and is acme.example included?
    Cite42 MCPCitation check
    Runs across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews.
    Your AI saysAI cited 6 distinct sources. The most common source appears in 3 AI services. Your guide is cited by ChatGPT and Perplexity.
  2. 02. CREATE A TRACKER

    Save the same citation check on a schedule.

    Choose a weekly or monthly schedule. Cite42 MCP saves the question, optional page, and AI coverage as a Draft for your review.

    You ask your AIRun this citation check every Monday at 08:00 London time.
    Cite42 MCPTracker setup
    Your AI saysWeekly citation tracker saved as Draft. Every Monday at 08:00. Estimated cost: 13 credits ($0.13) per run. Nothing runs until activation.
  3. 03. REVIEW COST AND ACTIVATE

    Approve the per-run limit and start tracking.

    Activation authorizes the current estimate as the cost ceiling. Later runs use current AI-service prices up to that ceiling. Cite42 pauses before calling an AI model only when the estimate rises above it.

The example is 13 credits ($0.13) for one prompt across the 3 default AI services. A tracker with multiple prompts multiplies that estimate by the number of saved prompts. You confirm the complete run ceiling at activation, and Cite42 pauses the tracker for review if a later estimate exceeds it.

QUESTIONS

Questions about AI Citation Tracker.

It stores every completed citation prompt: the buyer question, distinct cited sources, which AI services cited each source, and the result for one optional page you choose to watch.
No. A citation tracker watches at most one page URL, shared by every prompt in it. Create another tracker when you want to watch a different page.
A source count is how many selected AI services cited that source in one completed prompt. It is not a prompt count.
Yes. An authorized agent can use the tracker MCP tools to list trackers and retrieve their stored reports.
Each saved prompt uses AI Citations pricing. One prompt costs $0.13 across the three default AI services or $0.20 across all five. Multiply that by the number of saved prompts. Tracker management and stored reports are free.
Runs use current AI-service prices up to the ceiling you authorize at activation. Cite42 pauses the tracker for review only when the current estimate rises above that ceiling.
