Market: Global (en)

Each model is asked to answer as a buyer in Global, so your visibility reflects your actual market, not a global/US bias.

The company provides a cloud‑based virtual phone service that lets businesses obtain local telephone numbers in more than 60 countries and route calls to any mobile or landline worldwide. Its platform includes features such as call forwarding, outbound dialing with caller‑ID, voicemail transcription, automated call summaries, and analytics that score customer interactions. The service is aimed at entrepreneurs, small and medium‑size enterprises, and other organizations that need a professional phone presence without maintaining physical phone infrastructure. It competes in the business communications and unified communications‑as‑a‑service (UCaaS) market, fulfilling the need for affordable, globally reachable voice connectivity and related call‑management tools.

The area you and these competitors operate in: ringcentral.com, 8x8.com, vonage.com, aircall.io, dialpad.com.

?Your position among all brands AI named.

#9 / 45

Rank

Improves as you gain mentions the higher-ranked brands already have.

Two scores, two different things

AI Readiness is how well your own website is built for AI to read and cite - something you control. AI Visibility is whether AI actually knows and recommends you - shaped mostly by the rest of the web. You can be fully ready and still under-recommended; that gap is where the opportunity is.

You rank #9 of 45 on AI mentions (neutral questions)

Where you show up across AI models

Your brand and competitors as rows, AI models as columns. Each cell counts how often they are mentioned.

Ranking is based on neutral buyer questions. We don't count questions that already name you, so it's a fair comparison with competitors.

?Your rank is based on how often each brand is named unprompted across the neutral buyer questions. M = the brands compared (you plus your competitors). A model can recognize you and still not name you unprompted, so a 0 here is a visibility gap, not a sign the model does not know you.

Some models answered but named no brands in the neutral questions (google/gemini-3.6-flash) - their column is all zeros, which is a real result, not an error.

Likely newer than some models' knowledge

?We measure what each AI model learned during training, bounded by its knowledge cutoff. When a model trained before your name existed, it cannot mention you - so absence in an older model alongside presence in a newer one points to a cutoff gap rather than weak visibility.

You are absent in meta-llama/llama-3.1-70b-instruct, openai/gpt-4o, whose knowledge ends around Dec 2023, Oct 2023. If your current name or brand is more recent than that, those models may simply not know you yet - this looks like low visibility, but it can be a timing gap, not a quality one.

Models with more recent knowledge already see you: anthropic/claude-fable-5, anthropic/claude-sonnet-5, openai/gpt-5.6-sol. As models with newer cutoffs roll out, they tend to pick you up faster.

How AI describes you

How each AI model summarizes your site when given your details. This is what a model writes back about you from the description we passed it - not our own reading, and not proof the model knows you unprompted (see recognition).

These summaries are written from the details we gave each model, not fetched live or source-cited. Whether a model already knows you on its own is a separate signal - see recognition. See the models and their cutoffs

?AI answers can come from two places: a model's trained knowledge (what we measure here), and grounded answers where the model fetches and cites live sources. Grounded, cited measurement is a separate mode we plan to add later; today's report is the trained-knowledge view, per each model's cutoff.

We asked each model about your exact company (your domain + what you do), so the answer is not about a different company with a similar name.

AI visibility checklist

Readiness score: 73.3%

We check your homepage and a few key linked pages (like /faq and /about) - where AI reads first. A cross means we did not find the signal there, not that it cannot exist elsewhere on your site.

Priority actions

Do these first - ranked by expected impact on your AI visibility.

  1. High impact Organization entity (sameAs) for your webmaster
  2. Medium impact Article schema (JSON-LD) for your webmaster See the fix
  3. Medium impact Author (byline/markup) for your webmaster
  4. Medium impact HowTo schema (JSON-LD) for your webmaster

  • llms.txt present
    ?What: a /llms.txt that describes your service for AI crawlers. Why: it helps language models understand what you do and cite you correctly (like robots.txt, but for AI).

  • sitemap.xml present
    ?What: a /sitemap.xml listing your pages. Why: crawlers and AI find your whole structure so nothing important is missed.

Machine-readable facts about who you are and what you offer. The clearer your structured data, the more accurately AI can understand and describe you instead of guessing.

  • Article schema (JSON-LD)

    Add HowTo schema to guides and step-by-step pages.
  • Organization entity (sameAs)
    ?What: Organization schema with sameAs links to your official profiles (e.g. LinkedIn, Wikidata). Why: it ties your company to a clear entity so AI does not confuse you with someone else and describes you correctly.

    Add Organization schema with sameAs links to your official profiles.

The plain, static content AI actually reads. Clear titles, headings and descriptions in the page source mean models read what you do instead of an empty shell.

  • Canonical URL
    ?What: a canonical URL points to the 'real' address when the same content lives on several URLs. Why: it stops your visibility being split across duplicates.
  • Open Graph tags
    ?What: Open Graph tags (title/image/description) control how the page looks when shared. Why: they give AI and social media a clear, correct summary.
  • Meta description
    ?What: the page's short summary. Why: search engines and AI use it to describe you - a good description means you are described the way you want.
  • Page title
    ?What: the page title. Why: it is the first thing AI and search engines read - a clear title with what you do helps you get named in the right context.
  • Clear main heading (H1) in the page source
    ?What: a main heading (H1) present in the page source. Why: AI crawlers often do not run JavaScript - a static, clear heading means they actually read what you do instead of seeing an empty page.

Who stands behind the content and how current it is. Clear authorship and dates are credibility signals AI weighs when it decides whether to trust and cite you.

  • Author (byline/markup)
    ?What: a clear author via markup (JSON-LD author, rel=author or meta author). Why: who stands behind the content is a credibility signal (E-E-A-T) that AI weighs when deciding whether to trust and cite you.

    State the author with markup (author in JSON-LD, rel=author or meta name=author).
  • Published/updated dates
    ?What: datePublished/dateModified in markup or <time> elements. Why: freshness matters - AI often prefers updated content and can show when something was last changed.
