Claude Brand Insights | AI Search Optimization Tool | Aiso
Claude Brand Insights
Aiso is the AI search optimization tool for Claude brand insights. Track every citation, brand mention, sentiment shift, and competitor in Claude answers from a single dashboard.
Bottom line
Most buyers now ask Claude for recommendations before they ever visit a website, and two out of three of those answers name no brand at all. Claude brand insights tell you whether Claude names you, how often, in what light, and how you stack up against competitors, so you can turn a generic answer into one that recommends your brand. Aiso measures all six signals daily and returns a baseline report within 24 hours.
Claude by the numbers
- 8 of 10 of the Fortune 10 are Claude customers
- 245M Claude app monthly active users (May 2026)
- 8.9% of AI-chatbot web traffic, up from 1.6% a year earlier
The visibility gap, in one picture
What happens to a buying question in Claude
Drawn from Aiso’s panel of millions of real, anonymized AI conversations. Each bar is the share of buying-intent questions that make it to the next stage.
| Buying-intent questions asked | Answers that name any specific brand | Answers that name a single brand |
|---|---|---|
| 100% | ~1 in 3 | 63% of the ones that recommend |
The takeaway: there is a generic-answer gap on two-thirds of buying questions, and when Claude does recommend, it usually names just one brand. Claude brand insights tell you whether that one name is yours.
What real conversations actually show
We don’t have to theorize about this. Aiso’s panel of millions of real, anonymized AI conversations shows exactly how assistants handle buying questions.
| Indicator | Value |
|---|---|
| 2 in 3 | buying-intent questions got a generic answer - no specific brand named |
| 1 | the most common number of brands a recommendation named - 63% named just one |
A few real questions from the panel
- “What's a good lightweight podcast app for an older Android phone?”
- “What are ten companies that offer similar products and/or services to Diffbot?”
- “Which MBA is the best in 2025?”
Across tens of thousands of buying-intent conversations, the assistant named a specific brand only about a third of the time - the other two-thirds got a generic answer with no company named at all. And when it did recommend, 63% of those answers named a single brand. That is the visibility gap Claude brand tracking exists to close: knowing whether Claude names you at all, and whether you’re the one name it picks.
