CiteLens put its GEO platform into general availability on June 21. The system measures how often a brand is mentioned and cited across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini and Google AI Overviews, then runs buyer questions repeatedly by market and language so teams can separate simple name drops from recommendation behavior and source selection.

The product is built by Solustiq Yazılım ve Yapay Zeka Teknolojileri A.Ş., a product studio in Edirne, Turkey, founded on January 23, 2026 and now works on eight active products. CiteLens is selling both software and a done-for-you audit service, with a snapshot package at $499, a fuller service at $1,499 and agency pricing starting at $3,000-plus. The company also lists a free audit waitlist and a public docs area.

CiteLens benchmarks brands against competitors, tracks share of voice over time with statistical confidence intervals and maps the third-party sources that AI systems pull from. Google says AI Overviews appear when its systems determine generative AI is especially helpful, and Google warns that AI responses may include mistakes. ChatGPT Search can include inline citations and a sources panel. Perplexity provides real-time answers with sources and citations, and Claude web search provides up-to-date, cited responses. At I/O 2025, Google said AI Overviews reached 1.5 billion monthly users.

Pew Research Center found that Google users were less likely to click result links when an AI summary appeared, and the cited sources beneath those summaries were clicked very rarely. Reuters Institute’s 2026 outlook projects search engines are turning into AI-driven answer engines that may dry up referral traffic, while Similarweb measured a 212% surge in ChatGPT news queries and a 26% drop in publisher traffic. Semrush found Reddit and LinkedIn among the top cited domains in ChatGPT, Google’s AI Mode and Perplexity across a three-month study of more than 230,000 prompts.
