AI Monitor Launches World's First Open Source Tool to Track Brand Visibility in AI Search

PHOENIX - Aug. 20, 2025 - PRLog -- AI Monitor has launched Version 8.1 of its AI Brand Monitor tool, a major leap in tracking brand visibility across AI-generated responses. As the first open-source solution for monitoring brand mentions in generative outputs, it empowers businesses, agencies, and marketers to see how platforms like ChatGPT, Google AI Overview, Claude, Bing Copilot, Gemini, and Perplexity AI portray their brand in real time.

Since its debut, AI Monitor has tracked mentions, sentiment, and visibility scores across leading AI platforms. Version 8.1 adds competitor benchmarking and domain-level citation tracking, giving marketers insights into not only how often their brand is mentioned, but how it compares to rivals and which sources AI models reference. These upgrades help teams shape perception, optimize discoverability, and stay ahead in generative search.

"AI is quickly becoming the new search engine. Brands can't afford to guess how they're represented. With competitor benchmarking and domain citation, AI Monitor 8.1 gives businesses the clearest picture yet of their AI reputation," said Avinash Tripathi, Founder of AI Monitor.

AI Monitor is among the first platforms designed for Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), ensuring brands are accurately represented in AI answers. "SEO is like talking to a child – willing to accept what sounds right. GEO is like arguing with a teenager – bring proof, clarity, and patience, or they'll call you out," Tripathi added.

With its intuitive dashboard, AI Monitor makes GEO actionable for marketers, SEO professionals, and agencies, allowing performance breakdowns by region, language, and citation source — giving brands a competitive edge in the AI-first search era.

Version 8.1 is live and available for early access. Brands can explore the upgraded platform and request a free demo at www.getaimonitor.com.
