CitedLogic
The ranking system

The Real-Market AI Ranking Engine for local recommendations.

This is not a passive tracker. The real-device capture network runs city-level AI searches, turns the captures into a priority-weighted execution blueprint, and re-runs the same markets until the answer changes.

What each capture records

Every measurement is a record.

Each prompt we run against each engine, in each market, becomes a ranking input. Here is what becomes the execution blueprint.

City / market

Every metro you operate in, measured independently.

Prompt

The exact buyer-intent question a customer would ask.

Engine

ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, or the Google Maps local pack.

Brand appeared

Were you named, recommended first, buried lower, or absent from the answer?

Competitors named

Who AI recommended instead, in rank order, and what reason it gave.

Screenshot + transcript

Full-frame capture, transcript, timestamp, and the rank stamp in the pixels.

Sentiment

How favorably the answer frames your brand, reputation, and proof.

Cited source

The URL, profile, or public source AI appears to trust for the claim.

Accuracy issue

Wrong facts, stale services, unsupported claims, or repeated misinformation.

Execution weight

Revenue value, rank gap, competitor strength, reputation risk, and speed to proof.

Revenue at risk

Modeled value of the recommendations you are losing.

Month-over-month movement

How each answer shifted since the last real-device capture.

The AI ranking engine

Your city x prompt x engine matrix.

One grid answers the first ranking question: in this market, for this prompt, on this engine, did AI name you, rank you below competitors, or ignore you?

What the capture says

AI named three cosmetic practices first, then placed the target practice below the recommended set.

Source type

Google Maps profile + visible specialist proof

Execution lever

Package cosmetic specialty proof, review mass, and before/after portfolio evidence so the engine can justify a higher recommendation.

Public-safe sample from the same-prompt evidence set. Client-specific prompt libraries and source maps stay gated.

Each cell opens the underlying measurement: prompt family, answer, rank position, source type, screenshot receipt, and the execution lever that moves the next run.

From map to execution

The baseline becomes a weighted plan.

The paid baseline is not a static report. It scores every market/category gap and turns the highest-leverage items into the first execution cycle.

Baseline anatomy

The baseline is the market operating map.

It is not a static PDF. It turns real-device captures into the prioritized work that gets re-measured in the first 14-30 day proof window.

Gap baseline · 41/100
