# CiteClip · The GEO Engine > CiteClip is the GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) engine for founders and creators. We continuously watch competitor blogs, find the topics they cover and you don't, and draft articles that AI answer engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini) recommend and Google ranks — publishable to WordPress in one click. Last updated August 24, 2026. ## About CiteClip is the GEO engine for founders and creators — the tool that makes your site show up when your customers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, or Google AI Overviews about your product category. The platform monitors your competitors' content pipelines continuously, runs gap analysis to find the topics you're missing, and drafts articles engineered for both AI-search citation and Google ranking. Every draft ships with a TL;DR block, FAQPage schema, canonical-fact sentences under 25 words, and 20 other on-page signals AI engines score on. Distinct from generic AI writers (Jasper, SurferSEO, Frase) in that the differentiation is upstream: the decision of what to write about is data-driven from continuous competitor monitoring, not left to the user. The article generator is downstream. ## Core pages - [Homepage](https://citeclip.com/): Overview of what CiteClip does — "Get found in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini.
