Discover your competitors' strengths and leverage them to achieve your own success

AI answers now guide decisions. But are you asking the right questions about how you, your team, or customers are using it?

Similarweb’s Q3 updates focus on two critical factors: visibility and speed. See where you stand in AI results and automate what happens next.

Over the last few months, we’ve been focusing heavily on the latest cutting-edge AI features and reporting: AI agents, MCP, Gen AI intelligence, and AI summaries.

Why should you be interested?

Because we’ll show you new, easier, and faster ways to spot opportunities, build traffic, track consumer behavior, and understand what’s actually happening in your market.

Let’s get started.

Gen AI Intelligence

Citation Analysis

citation analysis dashboard

In this new report, we reveal the domains that have the most significant influence on AI answers. Dig deep, all the way down to the URL level to really uncover what is the driving force behind the topics and prompts you care about. 

Identify if it’s forums, publishers, or competitors that are most cited, so you can:

  • Update or create content that matches successful citation patterns.
  • Reach out to frequently cited publications with relevant information.
  • Identify communities or forums where you should be more present.

Result: A targeted plan with weekly progress tracking.

Brand Sentiment

Being mentioned isn’t enough, but do you know exactly how AI answers portray your brand?

Brand Sentiment lets you monitor sentiment by topic or down to prompt level to track changes over time. Then you can compare against competitors, identify negative mentions, and connect them to specific product issues, support needs, or content gaps. 

Result: Faster feedback, fewer surprises, and more effective messaging.

Web Intelligence

AI Segments
