Measure, Understand, and Track Your Dealership’s AI Visibility.
AI Authority Engine gives franchise dealerships a clear path from a complimentary first look, to a deeper strategic review, to ongoing visibility monitoring across AI-generated dealership recommendations.
Not every dealership needs the same level of analysis on day one.
Some dealers simply need to know whether they show up when consumers ask AI where to buy, service, or trust a dealership. Others need a deeper review of why competitors are being recommended instead. Dealer groups and serious operators may need ongoing monitoring to track movement over time.
Start with the right next step.
AI Authority Engine is built to meet dealerships where they are, from first-look visibility snapshots to deeper strategy and ongoing measurement.

Best for: Dealers who are serious about understanding the gaps and next steps.
Monitoring
Question it answers: Is our AI visibility improving or getting worse over time?
Best for: Dealers and groups that want ongoing accountability.
Start with the complimentary Snapshot.
The Snapshot gives your dealership the fastest way to see whether there is a real visibility issue, competitive risk, or opportunity worth reviewing further.
Establish the Baseline
See how your dealership appears across ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity.
Decide If You Need More
If the Snapshot reveals meaningful gaps, request a deeper AI Authority Review.
Track Movement Over Time
If visibility becomes a priority, use Monitoring to track improvement and competitor movement.
Different dealers need different levels of visibility intelligence.
Snapshot
Best for dealer principals, GMs, marketing directors, and agencies that want a quick first look without committing to a deeper project.
Review
Best for dealerships that already suspect competitors are winning AI visibility and want to understand what is driving the gap.
Monitoring
Best for dealers, groups, and marketing partners that want to measure visibility movement after changes are made.
Use the findings with the partners you already trust.
AI Authority Engine is an independent measurement layer. It works regardless of your OEM, website provider, SEO company, advertising agency, or marketing partner.
- Works with any franchise dealership
- Works with any dealership website platform
- Complements your current agency or marketing company
- Creates independent performance accountability
- Leaves implementation decisions with the dealership
Measurement first. Implementation second.
Dealers should know what AI platforms are saying before deciding what needs to change.
The Snapshot, Review, and Monitoring products are designed to give dealerships visibility before they commit to a specific strategy, vendor, or implementation path.
Common questions about AIAE solutions.
Where should we start?
Start with the complimentary AI Visibility Snapshot. It gives your dealership a first look at how it appears across ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity.
What is the difference between the Snapshot and the Review?
The Snapshot is a complimentary baseline. The AI Authority Review is a deeper diagnostic with expanded analysis, broader prompt coverage, competitor findings, and prioritized opportunities.
When does Monitoring make sense?
Monitoring makes sense after a baseline has been established and the dealership wants to track whether AI visibility is improving, declining, or shifting over time.
Do we have to switch vendors?
No. AI Authority Engine is vendor agnostic. You can use the findings with your current website provider, agency, SEO partner, internal team, or another qualified partner.
Is Claude included in the complimentary Snapshot?
No. The complimentary Snapshot evaluates ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. Claude is reserved for deeper AI Authority Review work because it adds additional run cost and is best used for serious buying prospects.
