Perplexity: AI Visibility Report
When buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini about ai visibility & aeo, Perplexity ranks #3 of 15, a Visibility Score of 23 in AI Visibility & AEO .
These rankings are measured from what the three models know from training, not a live web search. The live-web grounded surface is rolling out across the index. Methodology.
Solid middle presence, but rarely the first name called.
Where it wins. A 32% mention rate earns Perplexity the third spot overall, and it clearly owns open-ended prompts like 'If you could pick one,' where differentiation is loose and familiarity wins.
Where it loses. An 8% first-pick rate signals the AIs treat it as a credible option, not the obvious answer. The complete absence from Enterprise pick themes means procurement-focused buyers likely never see it.
