Yes! RankWit includes unlimited country tracking across all plans at no additional cost.
You can monitor AI visibility for any market worldwide.
Shopping Research is a feature in ChatGPT that acts as a personalized shopping assistant.
Simply describe what you’re looking for, such as “a lightweight laptop for travel”, and ChatGPT gathers product details, reviews, specs, prices, and comparisons from the web.
You can refine the results by marking products as “Not interested” or “More like this”, helping ChatGPT understand your preferences.
At the end, you receive a custom buyer’s guide that explains the pros, cons, and trade-offs of each option, making your purchase process easier and more informed.
The transformer is the foundational architecture behind modern LLMs like GPT. Introduced in a groundbreaking 2017 research paper, transformers revolutionized natural language processing by allowing models to consider the entire context of a sentence at once, rather than just word-by-word sequences.
The key innovation is the attention mechanism, which helps the model decide which words in a sentence are most relevant to each other, essentially mimicking how humans pay attention to specific details in a conversation.
Transformers make it possible for LLMs to generate more coherent, context-aware, and accurate responses.
This is why they're at the heart of most state-of-the-art language models today.
RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) is a cutting-edge AI technique that enhances traditional language models by integrating an external search or knowledge retrieval system. Instead of relying solely on pre-trained data, a RAG-enabled model can search a database or knowledge source in real time and use the results to generate more accurate, contextually relevant answers.
For GEO, this is a game changer.
GEO doesn't just respond with generic language—it retrieves fresh, relevant insights from your company’s knowledge base, documents, or external web content before generating its reply. This means:
By combining the strengths of generation and retrieval, RAG ensures GEO doesn't just sound smart—it is smart, aligned with your source of truth.
RankWit gives you a complete picture of how your brand appears across major AI platforms.

As businesses and content creators begin adapting to Generative Engine Optimization, it's crucial to recognize that strategies effective in traditional SEO don’t always translate to success with AI-driven search models like ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity.
In fact, certain classic SEO practices can actually reduce your visibility in AI-generated answers.
In traditional SEO, the use of targeted keywords, often repeated strategically across headers, metadata, and body content, is a foundational tactic.
This approach helps search engine crawlers associate pages with specific queries, and has long been used to improve rankings on platforms like Google and Bing.
However, in the context of GEO, keyword stuffing and rigid repetition can backfire. indeed, Large Language Models (LLMs) are not keyword matchers, but they are pattern recognizers that prioritize natural, contextual, and semantically rich language.
When content is overly optimized and lacks a conversational or human tone, it becomes less appealing for AI models to cite or summarize.
Worse, it may signal to the model that the content is promotional or unnatural, leading to it being deprioritized in AI-generated responses.
ℹ️ Best Practice: Instead of focusing on exact-match keywords, create content that mirrors how real users ask questions. Use plain, fluent language and focus on fully answering likely user intents in a natural tone.
Moreover, while E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authority, Trustworthiness) has gained importance in SEO, it’s often still possible to rank SEO pages with minimal authority if technical and content signals are strong. This is less true in GEO.
LLMs are trained to surface and reference content that demonstrates a high degree of trustworthiness. They favor sources that reflect real-world experience, subject-matter expertise, and institutional authority. Content without clear authorship, lacking credentials, or failing to convey reliability may be ignored by LLMs, even if it’s optimized in other ways.
ℹ️ Best Practice: Build content that clearly communicates why your organization or author is credible. Include bios, cite credentials, and demonstrate hands-on knowledge. For health, finance, or scientific topics, link to institutional or peer-reviewed sources to reinforce authority.
In addition, in traditional SEO, especially in long-tail keyword spaces, some websites can rank with minimal sourcing or citations, particularly when competing against weak content. However, GEO demands higher factual rigor.
LLMs are designed to summarize and synthesize trusted data. They tend to skip over content that lacks citation, includes speculative claims, or refers to ambiguous sources.
Moreover, AI models have been trained on vast amounts of data from academic, journalistic, and institutional sources. This training impacts which sites and sources the models tend to favor when generating answers. Content without strong sourcing is less likely to be cited or retrieved via Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) processes.
ℹ️ Best Practice: Always back your claims with authoritative, up-to-date sources. Link to original studies, well-known publications, or government and academic institutions. Inline citations and linked references increase your content’s reliability from an LLM’s perspective.
In short, while there is some overlap between SEO and GEO, optimizing for AI models requires a distinct strategy. The focus shifts from gaming algorithmic ranking systems to ensuring clarity, credibility, and accessibility for intelligent systems that mimic human understanding. To succeed in GEO, it's not enough to be visible to search engines—you must also be comprehensible, trustworthy, and useful to AI.
Implementing WebMCP is streamlined through the Google Chrome Labs toolkit. Developers have two primary paths:

RankWit continuously scans generative AI engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity to see if, when, and how your content is referenced. We then aggregate this data into an easy-to-read dashboard, showing:
Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) are closely related strategies, but they serve different purposes in how content is discovered and used by AI technologies.

AEO helps you be the answer in AI search results. GEO helps you be the source that generative AI platforms trust and cite.
Together, these strategies are essential for maximizing visibility in an AI-first search landscape.
Security is baked into the protocol's core. Unlike "headless" automation, WebMCP operates within the user’s current browser session:
