When someone asks AI which app to download, is yours in the answer?

A new way to find apps, with no dashboard

People now ask assistants what to download, and they get a short list instead of ten blue links. If your app is not on that list, you never hear about it: there is no Search Console for ChatGPT. App Store Connect does not show it either. The only way to know is to ask, again and again, because answers change from one run to the next.

That is what Apptiller does for you.

How it measures

• It works out the questions people ask in your category, and you can edit them
• It asks them daily on ChatGPT, Google AI Mode and Google AI Overviews, and on Gemini with Studio
• It records whether your app is named, in what position, and who is named instead
• It keeps the pages each answer cites
• It reports how often you are named as a range, so you see a trend and not one lucky answer

Why one check is not enough

AI answers vary. Ask the same question twice and you can get different apps. A single screenshot of ChatGPT naming your app proves very little, and neither does one answer that leaves you out. Apptiller repeats each question and reports a share with its range, and tells you when a change is too small to read. Pro runs each question twice a day.

From being missing to being named

Assistants lean on the web. In practice that means your listing, your website, "best apps" articles and forum threads. Because Apptiller keeps the pages each answer cites, it can show you which articles recommend your competitors and leave you out. Those become outreach targets, with a short pitch drafted for each. See outreach.

When an assistant keeps naming a rival, Apptiller also raises that as a finding and proposes a next step, such as a fair comparison page for your website. It plans and drafts the page and you publish it.

Do visits from AI actually arrive?

Being named is one half of it. The other half is whether people click. The optional script on your website counts visits from AI assistants as their own source, along with what those visitors did next, including clicks through to the App Store. See SEO for apps.

What we won't claim

Nobody outside OpenAI and Google knows exactly how these systems choose. There is no verified recipe for getting recommended, and we won't sell you one. Apptiller gives you measurement, the sources assistants use, and specific things to try. It then shows whether your share moved after you tried them. Treat any promise of guaranteed AI rankings with suspicion.

Which questions matter

Good questions sound like a person, not a keyword: "what's the best app for planning meals with PCOS?" rather than "pcos app". Apptiller drafts them from your listing and category, and you can change any of them. Mix three kinds. Broad ones show your category ("best meal planning app"). Specific ones match your niche, where a small app has a real chance. Comparison ones ("alternatives to Competitor A") catch people who are ready to switch.

Keep a question for a while once you add it. A trend needs several weeks of the same question, so swapping them often leaves you with no history to read.

What to do with the results

Start with the answers that name a rival and not you, then open the pages those answers cite. Usually you find one of three things. Your listing or website does not state plainly what the app is for and who it serves, which is something you can fix today. An article or thread lists your rivals, which is an outreach target. Or the answer repeats something out of date or wrong about your app. On Pro, Apptiller checks answers for wrong claims about your product so you can correct the source.

Consistency helps too. Use the same name and the same one-line description of the app on your listing, website and profiles, so that a system reading all of them comes away with one clear idea of what you make.

Getting started

Run the free check to see a real ChatGPT answer for your app now. When you add the app, Apptiller suggests questions and begins asking them. On Free that is three questions a week. Paid plans ask daily, and that is when trends start to mean something.
