See if AI would cite your page before you publish it

Put a live page, a rewritten version or an unpublished draft in front of a real AI engine and see whether it gets picked, before anyone else sees the page.

96%

Our simulation agreed with a real AI engine on which pages get cited.

Over 455 test runs. Our own measurement, not a customer result.

What Simulate does

  • Choose a prompt, an AI engine and a page version: live, rewritten or draft.
  • See which pages the engine found, read and cited, and where you rank among them.
  • Compare your page with the other pages it found.
  • Keep every run to compare results before and after a fix.

How it works

01

Pick the test

One of your prompts, one engine and the version of the page you want to try.

02

The engine does its job

It searches the web, reads the real pages it finds, and writes its answer from them.

03

Read the result

See if your page was found, if it was read, and if it was cited.

Being found is only the start.

Most tools stop at whether a page shows up. Simulate goes on to the part that decides the outcome: whether your page is read and quoted when it sits next to real competitors. And it does this with your page too, so you find out before the page is live, and repeat runs show whether the result holds. We checked it against the real thing: in a 455-run test, our simulation agreed with a real AI engine on which pages get cited, 96% of the time.

Questions

Can I test a page that is not published yet?

Yes. Paste or pick a draft or a rewrite, and it competes with the other pages as if it were live, without anything being published.

How is this different from the Citations grid?

Citations shows what engines answer about you today, across all your prompts. Simulate is a controlled test of one page version on one prompt, including versions nobody can see yet.
