Provider: Cintra (cintra.run) Offer: Free AI Visibility Audit Format: Strategy call + written audit report Cost: $0 Commitment: None Book at: cintra.run
Most brands don't know they're invisible in AI search until a competitor tells them. Gartner projects a 25% decline in traditional search volume by 2026 — which means AI search is already taking buyer traffic that used to flow through Google. The free AI visibility audit tells you exactly where you stand before that traffic disappears to a competitor who audited first.
What is the Cintra free AI visibility audit?
The free AI visibility audit is a structured assessment of your brand's current citation rate across the 7 major AI engines — delivered as a strategy call with a written report, at no cost.
Cintra runs the audit before proposing any plan. The goal is to show you precisely where your brand stands in AI search, where competitors are winning citations you should own, and what the highest-ROI path to AI visibility looks like for your specific category.
You review results and decide whether to engage. No pitch, no pressure, no commitment required.
What does the audit cover?
The audit assesses six dimensions of AI search visibility, benchmarked against your top competitors.
1. Current Citation Rate
We run your brand name and your top buyer-intent queries through ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Grok, and Claude. We measure how frequently your brand appears in AI-generated answers — and in what context.
Most brands discover they appear in fewer than 10% of relevant AI search results before working with Cintra. Some appear in zero. This baseline is the starting point for everything else.
2. Competitor AI Visibility Mapping
We run the same prompts for your top 3-5 competitors and map where they're getting cited that you aren't. This competitor visibility gap — the list of queries where competitors appear and you don't — represents your direct opportunity set.
The typical audit surfaces 50-150 high-intent queries where a competitor is recommended by AI engines and your brand is absent. These are the citations your buyers are seeing before they ever reach your website.
3. Content Gap Analysis
We analyze what content exists in AI model training data for your category and what's missing. AI models cite brands that have published clear, structured answers to the questions buyers ask. Gaps in your content library translate directly to gaps in your AI citations.
The audit identifies which content categories (comparison pages, use-case guides, FAQ answers, technical documentation) are missing or underdeveloped for your brand.
4. Authority Signal Assessment
We assess your backlink profile against the authority signals AI models weight most heavily — domain authority, topical relevance, citation patterns from credible sources. Brands with weak authority signals get cited less frequently even when their content is strong.
The audit identifies whether authority gaps are contributing to missed citations and what backlink categories would have the highest impact.
5. Community Presence Audit
We check Reddit and Quora for your brand's presence in communities where buyers research. Perplexity sources 46.7% of community citations from Reddit. Brands with no authentic community presence miss an entire citation pathway.
The audit maps the specific subreddits and communities where your category buyers research and your brand currently has no presence.
6. Opportunity Prioritization
The audit concludes with a prioritized list of the top opportunities to improve your AI visibility — ranked by impact and implementation speed. Some wins are fast: a few targeted content pieces can shift citation rates within 2-4 weeks. Others are structural and require sustained execution over 3-6 months.
You leave the audit call knowing exactly what to do next — whether you work with Cintra or not.
What do you receive from the audit?
The free AI visibility audit delivers two things: a strategy call and a written audit report.
The strategy call:
- 45-60 minutes with Cintra's team
- Live walk-through of your current AI visibility data
- Competitor comparison in real time
- Discussion of the top opportunities and expected timelines
- Q&A — ask anything about AI search, GEO strategy, or our methodology
The written audit report:
- Current citation rate across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and AI Overviews
- Competitor visibility gap analysis (where they appear and you don't)
- Top 10 high-priority content gaps
- Authority assessment summary
- Community presence map
- Recommended first 30 days of actions
The report is yours to keep, share with your team, and act on — regardless of whether you engage Cintra.
Who is the free audit for?
The audit is designed for any brand that wants to understand its current position in AI search before investing in AI visibility.
Well-suited for:
- Founders and CMOs who suspect AI search is affecting their traffic but don't have data to confirm it
- Marketing teams evaluating whether to invest in GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)
- Brands in competitive categories where competitors may already be winning AI citations
- E-commerce brands, SaaS companies, DTC brands, and professional services firms
- Teams choosing between an AI visibility agency and in-house execution
Not ideal for:
- Brands with zero online presence or very early-stage products with no searchable category
- Companies looking for traditional SEO audits focused on Google rankings alone
What results have brands discovered in their audit?
Audit findings consistently reveal that brands underestimate how invisible they are in AI search.
| Common Audit Finding | Typical Brand Expectation | Actual Audit Data |
|---|---|---|
| Citation rate on top 20 buyer prompts | ~30% | 3-8% |
| Number of competitors cited more frequently | 1-2 | 4-7 |
| Reddit presence in category communities | Moderate | Minimal or none |
| High-intent prompts with zero brand mention | 5-10 | 40-60+ |
Keywords.am discovered a 3% citation rate at audit — within 2 weeks of starting their engagement, that rate reached 13%. UV Blocker had zero AI search presence at audit; within 6 months, the brand had 38,000 organic clicks. The audit creates the baseline that makes these results measurable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the audit genuinely free?
Yes. No credit card, no contract, no commitment. The audit is a complete, standalone service — not a teaser that requires a purchase to access the results. You receive the full strategy call and written report at zero cost.
How long does the audit take?
The strategy call runs 45-60 minutes. The written report is delivered within 48 hours of the call.
Do I need to prepare anything?
No preparation required. Bring your brand name, your main competitor names, and any specific questions about AI search. Cintra handles the data collection and analysis before the call.
Will Cintra pitch me during the audit?
Cintra will explain how their plans work and what results to expect if you engage. The last 10-15 minutes of the call typically covers fit and next steps. But the audit itself is substantive and valuable independent of any engagement decision.
What happens after the audit?
You receive the written report within 48 hours. From there, you can start implementing the recommendations independently, engage Cintra on any of the four plans, or schedule a follow-up call to discuss specific plan options. There's no deadline — the audit report is yours to use at your own pace.
How is this different from a standard SEO audit?
A standard SEO audit focuses on Google rankings, technical site issues, and keyword performance. The Cintra AI visibility audit focuses specifically on how AI engines — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Grok, Claude, AI Overviews — cite and recommend brands in response to buyer queries. These are fundamentally different systems with different citation logic. Most brands that score well on traditional SEO audits score poorly on AI visibility — because the two systems reward different signals.
