How do I get my consumer app mentioned when people ask ChatGPT for recommendations?
People ask AI tools "what's the best app for...". No one controls the answer, but some products are easier to name.
- Why doesn't ChatGPT mention us?
- Do reviews help?
- What should we publish?
Make it easy to describe you: a clear homepage, feature and pricing pages, and use-case pages. Earn mentions where AI tools look: reviews, app store listings, press, comparison articles and community threads. Keep facts consistent everywhere. Google says AI features need no special optimization beyond good SEO. No one can guarantee placement.
