Free — checks the live Google SERP

Are you cited in Google's AI answers?

AI Overviews now sit above every result — and take the click before anyone scrolls. This checker runs your search live, in your city, and shows exactly which websites Google's AI answer cites. Is yours one of them?

How it works

How it works

Ahrefs, Semrush, and SE Ranking charge hundreds a month to track this. Your check is free.

Step 1

Live, local search

We run your keyword through a real Google search targeted to your city and state — the same SERP your customers see, not a national average.

Step 2

AI Overview extracted

We load the AI Overview and pull out the answer text plus every source link Google attached to it — the citations that earn the click.

Step 3

Your verdict + the full list

Cited or invisible, in seconds — with every cited domain, the exact snippet searchers read, and where you sit in the organic top 10.

FAQ

Common questions

What exactly is an AI Overview?

It's the AI-generated answer box Google now shows above the traditional results for a growing share of searches. It summarizes an answer and cites a handful of source websites. Those citations — not the old blue links — are becoming the new page one.

Why isn't my site cited?

Google's AI leans on sites with strong, consistent citations, real reviews, clean structured data, and content that directly answers the question. Most local business sites are thin on all four — which is fixable, and exactly what Locafy builds.

Do results change by location?

Yes, heavily — an AI Overview for 'plumber near me' in Alton is built from different sources than the same search in Chicago. That's why this tool asks for your city and state and runs the SERP geo-targeted.

Is this really free?

Yes — run it on your money keyword, then on the searches your competitors win. If you want the citation profile that gets you into those answers, that's where we come in.

Not cited? We'll fix your citation profile.
