CiteFlow scores your site out of 100 on what helps AI cite it, then an agent opens GitHub pull requests to fix crawler access, schema and llms.txt. Every Monday it asks four AI engines 10 buyer questions. That's a small sample, Auto-Fix needs a GitHub repo, the free account is 3 one-off scans, and monthly plans aren't refundable. - **Value for money: C.** Standard is $399 a year, about $33 a month, or $49 monthly, for 1 site, 10 weekly questions and 2 Auto-Fix runs. That's right at the edge of this category's cheaper quarter, and 10 questions a week is a small sample. - **Free plan and trial: C.** A free account with no card gets 3 one-off scans, scores only, with issue detail for 2 of the 7 areas. It doesn't refill, so it's a taste rather than a plan. - **Features: C.** A seven-part site scan, weekly checks on ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude, PR-based fixes, crawler alerts and plain-English reports. The gaps: just 10 tracked questions per site, and Auto-Fix only works for sites kept in GitHub. - **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. A scan is just a URL, but the fixes mean connecting a GitHub repo and reviewing pull requests, which suits developers more than marketers. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only, with no desktop or phone app. It connects to GitHub and has a REST API with Node.js and Python SDKs for running scans from CI.

What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. It costs $396 a year. - You could make: Schema markup and reports: an app builder makes these well. - You could not: The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept. - You could not: A crawler that checks every page of a site. - You could not: It plugs into other products, GitHub and Stripe among them, and has an API. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool.
