Topics we speak on

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)

How companies surface in AI answers from ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Perplexity — and why that is not the same as ranking first on Google.

AI search in B2B purchasing

How buyers and decision makers pre-select suppliers via AI assistants today, and which sources get cited along the way.

Measurement instead of gut feeling

What can seriously be measured about AI visibility, where the limits are, and how to spot an estimation tool.

Regional and editorial sources

Why trade media, directories and regional publications are gaining weight in AI answers.

Figures from the tool
Please always cite with measurement period and AI system, e.g. "ChatGPT, measured on 15 September 2026".

How an enquiry works

So you can plan: this is what we deliver and what we do not — regardless of how neatly a figure would fit the story.

What we provide

  • Quotable statements and background briefings — at short notice and by phone if needed.
  • Real measurement data from runs that actually happened on ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Perplexity, including a description of the method.
  • A sample measurement for an industry or question you name, schedule permitting.
  • Logos, product screenshots and print-quality press photos on request.

What we do not provide

  • No estimated or extrapolated figures. What was not measured is not quoted as a number.
  • No market-share or market-size claims without a named source.
  • No customer data and no third-party measurements without their explicit approval.
  • No quotes in exchange for advertising bookings or any other consideration.

Why so strict? It is documented in our methodology.

Short boilerplate (approx. 45 words)

GEO Tool is a Berlin-based tool for Generative Engine Optimization: it measures whether and how companies appear in answers from ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Perplexity, and derives concrete actions from that. It is operated by track by track GmbH.

Long boilerplate (approx. 110 words)

GEO Tool (geo-tool.com) is a tool for Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) — the visibility of companies in AI-powered search. Instead of estimating rankings, GEO Tool asks real purchase-relevant questions on ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Perplexity, stores the full answers including cited sources, and evaluates whether, in which position and alongside which competitors a company is mentioned. Every metric can be traced back to the concrete AI answer; days without a measurement are never filled with extrapolated values. GEO Tool is operated by track by track GmbH in Berlin, with data held in the EU.

Both texts are cleared for verbatim use in press coverage.

Name the industry and the question — we run the measurement and deliver the result with a note on the method, even when it turns out unspectacular.
