What ranksource delivers
An editorial infrastructure built for AI models.
Premium press media outlets are the sources that carry the most weight in training corpora and real-time search. ranksource lets you publish long-form, sourced, citable content in them.
Authoritative sources
We curate a selection of media outlets whose content is regularly cited by the leading AI models, only established outlets, recognized within their sector and by reference corpora.
Long-form, sourced content
You publish editorial articles with data, concrete examples, expert quotes and verifiable figures: exactly the format models favor when synthesizing a response.
Multi-outlet mentions
Coordinate several consistent publications across different outlets to reinforce the authority signal with AI models.
Entity consistency
Your brand description, its sector, positioning and founders are crafted to be correctly extracted and associated with your entity in knowledge graphs.
The process
Four steps, from angle to AI mention.
Mapping

GEO questions
The questions that come up most.
How long before appearing in AI model responses?
It varies by model. Web-enabled tools (Perplexity, Gemini, ChatGPT with search) can pick up a new publication within days. Models trained on historical corpora update on their own schedule. A GEO strategy is measured over several months.
Which AI models do you primarily target?
The five most widely used in B2B contexts: ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot. Each model has its own preferred sources, and ranksource lets you address that diversity with a varied mix of media outlets.
How is GEO impact measured?
Regular tracking of your brand mentions in responses from the leading models, on your strategic queries. Our team can help you set up the tracking and interpret the results.
Should I publish in English or the local language?
Both. Models respond in the language of the prompt and favor sources in that language. A serious strategy covers English (for corpus weight) and the key languages of your market.
How do I measure the traffic AI answers send me?
In your analytics tool, isolate the referral traffic coming from AI surfaces (chatgpt.com, perplexity.ai, gemini.google.com, copilot.microsoft.com). Watch the trend rather than the volume: these visits are still few but highly qualified, because the user arrives after a recommendation. Cross-reference with your panel of test questions to connect this traffic to your citations.
