- 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 checkRuns 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. - 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 setupYour AI saysWeekly citation tracker saved as Draft. Every Monday at 08:00. Estimated cost: 13 credits ($0.13) per run. Nothing runs until activation. - 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.
