The domains AI answer engines actually cite
Every source URL our probes recorded, rolled up by domain. Not an authority ranking — a record of which sites answer engines reached for.
18282 recorded citations between 2026-06-27 and 2026-09-07. Of 2352 domains seen, 11 are published here: a domain appears only if it was cited across at least 5 distinct tracked subjects, so no single customer's activity can put a domain on this list.
| Domain | Kind | Citations | Subjects | Engines |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| g2.com | User-generated | 164 | 6 | 6 |
| sourceforge.net | Unclassified | 96 | 6 | 4 |
| alternativeto.net | Unclassified | 81 | 5 | 5 |
| techradar.com | Unclassified | 22 | 5 | 2 |
The directory list is a hand-kept set, and each entry quotes the site's own description of itself with the day it was read.
Our probes only run for queries somebody is tracking. A domain that is absent was not seen by anything we measure — that is not the same as an engine never citing it.
1 domain withheld as a measurement artifact rather than a source. The reason is recorded with the data.
