# DeepSeek visibility tracker - Canonical: https://www.geoly.ai/deepseek-visibility-tracker - AI visibility tracker: DeepSeek Separate DeepSeek app observations from model API and search-tool experiments. Build an auditable brand research brief for custom GEOly coverage. [Discuss DeepSeek coverage](https://www.geoly.ai/contact) DeepSeek is not included in standard monitoring or the standard trial. Collection feasibility, method, cadence and deliverables require agreement. ## Define the measurement scope - **DeepSeek app**: Record the selected experience and visible search state. - **DeepSeek API**: Pin model, endpoint and tools; support varies with the configuration. - **Search / fetch results**: Retrieving a URL is different from citing it in the final answer. ## Why measure DeepSeek on its own DeepSeek API research needs an explicit endpoint and model. Search and fetch capabilities are not a reason to treat every generated answer as grounded in the web; retain evidence that retrieval actually occurred. Compare the answer’s brand claims with the linked pages, not just the presence of a familiar name. For Chinese and international markets, use separate prompt sets and inspect local naming and product availability. ## Read the signal. Choose the right action. Mentions, citations and visits answer different questions. Keep them separate before deciding what to optimize. - **Brand mentions**: Whether the brand is named in the sampled answers. Find missing buying intents; inspect how the brand is described. - **Citation Rate**: The share of tracked answers citing your own domain. Inspect the cited URLs and the facts your pages need to support. - **Share of Model**: Your share of brand mentions within the same answer set. Compare the competitors actually named, using a stable prompt set. - **Sentiment & answer position**: The wording around a brand and its order in the answer. Read the original context before interpreting a positive or negative label. - **Referral visits**: Attributed website sessions in your analytics. Evaluate landing pages and key events separately from AI visibility. [Metric guide: definitions, formulas and how to read them](https://www.geoly.ai/ai-visibility-metrics) ### Keep the sample honest Hold prompts, engine, market and language steady when comparing periods. Report the observation count; separate failed runs from valid answers. One response is an example, not a market-wide ranking. Source links, fan-out and shopping cards depend on what an engine exposes. For a custom engagement, use these as acceptance criteria. Availability is confirmed during scoping, not promised by this page. ## Start with better questions. Choose a business type and build a small prompt set you can copy into your research workflow. These are editable examples—not live engine results or measured search demand. - Which wireless headphones brands should a first-time buyer consider? - Which wireless headphones options are worth comparing at different budgets? - How does [your brand] compare with other wireless headphones options? - What should I verify before choosing [your brand]? - Which reliable sources support the claims about [your brand]? - When should I choose an alternative to [your brand]? Replace placeholders and select your target country and language in your tracking workflow. The starter runs in your browser; it does not query an AI engine. ## From an answer to your next content decision. ### Record the run configuration Inspect: Inspect model, endpoint and whether web search was actually used. Act: Store these settings with each answer and annotate changes before comparing periods. Keep the evidence: Model · endpoint · search state ### Trace retrieval to citation Inspect: Compare retrieved pages with the sources linked from the answer. Act: Prioritize pages whose facts answer the buyer’s constraint. Keep retrieved-only pages outside citation totals. Keep the evidence: Retrieved URL · cited URL · claim ### Validate regional claims Inspect: Look for mistakes in translated names, regional offers and product availability. Act: Publish consistent localized facts and recheck the same local buyer intent after updating. Keep the evidence: Market · language · factual correction ## Your first measurement cycle For DeepSeek, agree the collection and delivery scope before this cycle starts. 1. **Set the baseline**: Choose one market and a focused set of discovery, comparison and validation questions. Save the prompt list before measuring. 2. **Read the evidence**: Inspect missing mentions, citation gaps and inaccurate claims. Prioritize by relevance to a real customer decision. 3. **Change one useful thing**: Improve a specific page or source. Record what changed and when, then compare equivalent observation windows. ## Choose the coverage you actually need. Bring your target market, prompt sample, preferred interface and reporting requirements. We will establish whether custom DeepSeek coverage fits your project before you commit.

DeepSeek is not included in GEOly standard monitoring or its standard trial. Discuss an Enterprise custom research brief; collection feasibility, access, cadence and deliverables must be confirmed before work begins. ### What should a DeepSeek research brief include? Specify the exact product or API, model where known, market, language, search settings and prompt sample. Agree what counts as a mention, a citation and a valid observation. A page about a platform does not mean collection is already available. ### Is a fetched page the same as a citation? No. A tool may retrieve a page without the final answer relying on or linking to it. Keep retrieval exposure and final-answer citations as separate measures. ### Does tracking guarantee AI recommendations? No. Monitoring helps you identify gaps and inspect changes. It does not control an engine’s answers or guarantee citations, rankings or traffic growth. ### Does the prompt starter query an AI engine live? No. It builds research questions in your browser from your inputs. It does not run collection or show measured demand. Actual monitoring is configured separately. ### How should I compare results over time? Use the same prompt set, engine, market and language across equivalent windows. Inspect valid observation counts and raw answers, and annotate any collection or product-configuration changes. ### Is AI visibility the same as website traffic? No. A brand can be mentioned or cited without receiving a click. Use answer records to assess visibility and GA4 or your own analytics to assess visits and conversions. ## Official platform references - [DeepSeek: Responses API](https://api-docs.deepseek.com/guides/responses_api/) - [DeepSeek: Search and Fetch](https://api-docs.deepseek.com/guides/search/) References reviewed: 2026-11-13 [Explore all platforms and coverage](https://www.geoly.ai/ai-llm-visibility-tracker) ## Track the other engines - [Mistral visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/mistral-visibility-tracker) - [Muse visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/muse-visibility-tracker) - [Claude visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/claude-visibility-tracker) - [Qwen visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/qwen-visibility-tracker) - [Grok visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/grok-visibility-tracker) - [Naver AI Briefing visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/naver-ai-briefing-visibility-tracker) - [Baidu ERNIE visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/baidu-ernie-visibility-tracker) - [Bing AI Mode visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/bing-ai-mode-visibility-tracker) - [OpenAI API visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/openai-api-visibility-tracker) - [Gemini Search API visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/gemini-search-visibility-tracker) - [Perplexity API visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/perplexity-api-visibility-tracker) - [Exa visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/exa-visibility-tracker) - [Perplexity visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/perplexity-visibility-tracker) - [ChatGPT visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/chatgpt-visibility-tracker) - [Google AI Mode visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/google-ai-mode-visibility-tracker) - [Gemini visibility tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/gemini-visibility-tracker) - [Google AI Overviews tracker](https://www.geoly.ai/google-ai-overviews-tracker)
