About KnewSearch
Built by Brandon Lincoln Hendricks, Global Search Director at Merkle/Dentsu and lead of Total Search at SolarWinds. KnewSearch monitors where your brand appears inside AI-generated answers across every major engine, then gets you cited.
Why KnewSearch Exists
AI search engines are replacing traditional search results. Buyers increasingly get answers from Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, ChatGPT, and Gemini, without ever clicking through to a website. Brands have no visibility into whether they appear in these AI-generated answers.
Traditional SEO tools track rankings and clicks. But AI search doesn't work that way. There are no rankings, only citations, mentions, and recommendations embedded inside AI-generated responses. Measuring visibility in AI search requires an entirely new approach.
KnewSearch was built to solve this specific problem. We monitor AI-generated answers across every major AI search engine, analyze citation patterns, and quantify brand visibility using our proprietary AI Visibility Score, giving brands the intelligence they need to compete in the age of AI search.
