GEO Monitoring GEO Monitoring ## Track your AI visibility across Western and China platforms GEO monitoring is the systematic practice of tracking how AI platforms mention, rank and describe your brand in their generated responses — unified across both ecosystems in one system. [Get a free GEO audit](https://audit.tocanan.ai/) ## AI visibility is fragmented across ecosystems Most GEO tools cover Western AI platforms exclusively, which creates a blind spot for any brand serving Hong Kong, Greater China or wider APAC markets. China's AI ecosystem — led by DeepSeek, Doubao and Kimi — is reshaping how those consumers discover, evaluate and buy. Without cross-ecosystem monitoring you cannot: - See how AI actually describes your brand in each market - Benchmark visibility against competitors across both ecosystems - Identify missed citation and recommendation opportunities Coverage ## Both ecosystems, one measurement frame Tracked in a single system built for APAC and cross-border brands — not a Western tool with a China feature bolted on. Western ecosystem Well served by existing tooling. Every GEO provider measures these. - ChatGPT - Perplexity - Gemini - Grok - Copilot Chinese ecosystem Where most tools are structurally blind — and where your APAC customers are asking. - DeepSeek - Doubao - Kimi - Qwen - Baidu Ernie **Typical GEO tooling** measures the Western ecosystem. **Tocanan** measures both, in English, 繁體中文, 简体中文, العربية. Western platforms ChatGPT Over one billion weekly active users worldwide. The dominant AI assistant shaping brand discovery. Perplexity Citation-driven answers with inline source attribution, which makes it the clearest read on who AI treats as authoritative. Gemini Deeply integrated into Google's search ecosystem. Critical in Google-dominant markets. Grok Expanding usage via X integration. Growing influence on real-time information queries. China platforms DeepSeek Rapid adoption in China with strong reasoning capability, and growing global open-source usage. Kimi Popular for long-context queries and consumer research. Draws on Zhihu, WeChat and the Chinese web. Doubao Integrated with the ByteDance ecosystem, including Douyin content discovery. Qwen Embedded across Alibaba's enterprise and consumer AI stack throughout APAC. What we measure ## Core GEO metrics Monitoring goes past surface-level mentions to how, where and why your brand appears in a generated answer. Mentions by platform How often your brand is cited on each AI platform, tracked continuously. AI Generative Visibility Rate The percentage of AI-generated responses mentioning your brand across all monitored queries. Citation rate How frequently AI cites your content as an authoritative source. Position score Where your brand ranks within a response — first mention, or buried at the end. Sentiment analysis How favourably AI describes your brand, across platforms and languages. Share of voice Your share of all brand mentions within your competitive set. ### AIGVR by engine Category query set · single brand · higher is better Illustrative data Western engines ChatGPT 61ChatGPT · AIGVR 61 of 100 Perplexity 74Perplexity · AIGVR 74 of 100 Google AI Overviews 48Google AI Overviews · AIGVR 48 of 100 Gemini 55Gemini · AIGVR 55 of 100 Chinese engines DeepSeek 23DeepSeek · AIGVR 23 of 100 Kimi 17Kimi · AIGVR 17 of 100 View as table AIGVR by engine Engine Region AIGVR ChatGPT Western 61 Perplexity Western 74 Google AI Overviews Western 48 Gemini Western 55 DeepSeek Chinese 23 Kimi Chinese 17 Difference ## Why our monitoring is different Most tools show where you rank. We show how AI understands and represents your brand — and give you a way to change it. ## Frequently asked questions about GEO Monitoring How often is monitoring data updated? The monitoring system runs continuous queries across all platforms. Dashboard data updates as new AI responses are collected and analysed. Why do I need to monitor Chinese AI platforms? Platforms like DeepSeek, Doubao and Kimi are reshaping how Chinese-speaking consumers discover brands, and Western monitoring tools are structurally blind to them. If you serve APAC markets, ignoring these platforms means missing a large and growing audience segment. Can I track competitors alongside my brand? Yes. Competitive benchmarking is built into every GEO Monitoring dashboard — your visibility, citation rate and position score sit side by side with your competitive set. What languages are supported for monitoring? English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Arabic, and additional languages on request. Each language is monitored on the platforms most relevant to that audience, because coverage in one language tells you nothing about another. ## See how AI sees your brand AI-driven search is shaping consumer decisions. The question is whether your brand is visible, trusted and cited across every platform that matters.
