Question 1

What does an AI Visibility Check measure?

Accepted Answer

Four things, against the questions your buyers actually ask: presence (how often ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini name your brand at all), position (where you sit in each answer's list), sentiment (how the engines describe you), and citations (whether your own website is used as a source, or only third-party pages). The free check asks one question on ChatGPT. The full report asks three questions across all four engines and adds a diagnosis: why the engines cite the pages they cite instead of yours.

Question 2

What are GEO and AEO?

Accepted Answer

Both mean roughly the same work: making your brand visible inside answers from AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini, the way SEO makes you visible in search results. GEO is short for generative engine optimisation; AEO for answer engine optimisation. Our guides on GEO, AEO, and GEO vs SEO explain how the engines pick brands and what actually moves the needle.

Question 3

Is a Brand Name Check the same as legal trademark clearance?

Accepted Answer

No. It is a screening report: it finds identical and similar marks at the IP India register, MCA company-name conflicts, domain and handle availability, and search competition, with the source for each finding. It is not legal advice and no tool can guarantee a trademark will be registered. Use it to eliminate weak names cheaply and to give your attorney a head start on the ones worth filing.

Question 4

Which countries and trademark registers are covered?

Accepted Answer

India: the IP India trademark register (wordmark and phonetic search across all 45 Nice classes) and MCA company records are the deep integrations. The AI Visibility Check works for any market, since it asks the engines the questions your buyers ask wherever they are.

Question 5

How often is the Trademark Journal checked?

Accepted Answer

The IP India Trademark Journal publishes weekly, and Trademark Watch scans every new issue for marks similar to yours. Alerts include the mark, the class, the applicant, the journal date, and the opposition deadline, so you can act while the four-month window is open.

Question 6

How current are the AI results?

Accepted Answer

Fresh at the moment you run the check: we ask each engine live rather than serving cached answers. AI answers also drift week to week, which is why the report shows the exact questions asked and the date, and why re-running the same check on a schedule is the honest way to track progress.

Question 7

What is included for free?

Accepted Answer

Three ways to start without a card: one free AI visibility check (one buyer question, asked on ChatGPT), ten free brand name checks in the 7-day trial, and your first Trademark Watch mark free for a year. Paid tiers exist for depth and volume: the full AI report is ₹500, name-check packs start at ₹490, and extra watch marks are ₹500 a year.

Question 8

Can I download or share a report?

Accepted Answer

Brand name check reports download as a PDF on paid packs, covering trademark conflicts, suggested Nice classes, MCA matches, domains, and handles - built to hand to an attorney or a client. AI Visibility reports live in your account with the engines' answers shown verbatim.

Question 9

What should I do when a trademark conflict is found?

Accepted Answer

First read why it was flagged: the report shows the conflicting mark, its class, and whether the match is visual or phonetic. A conflict in an unrelated class may not matter; a phonetic match in your class usually does. From there you can pick a different name, adjust your filing classes, or take the evidence to a trademark attorney - our guide to registering a trademark in India covers the process end to end.
