How the scan works
Get recommended by AI more often.
Tokino works to make your business the one AI names. With Core, our paid plan, we publish pages you approve at a separate address under your own domain, with your existing website unchanged (you connect that address once by adding our DNS records where you manage your domain), correct wrong Google profile facts with your approval and check every week how often AI names you.
When someone asks where to go or who to call in your city, does AI name you? Your scan shows how often you appear, the answers that leave you out, and the sources behind each result.
Your first scan is free. No card.
We ask what your customers ask.
Your questions fit your business type and city. For home services, for example:
- Who are the best [your trade] businesses in [your city]?
- Recommend a reliable [your trade] in [your city].
- Who should I call for a [your trade] in [your city]?
- Which [your trade] in [your city] has the best reviews?
- I need to hire a [your trade] in [your city]. Who do you suggest?
Restaurants, salons and other US local businesses get questions for their type, too. Enter your business type in your own words.
The free scan asks all 5. In your account, you choose which to track.
In your account, home services can add questions about confirmed services and service areas within the scan's cost limit. Your overall and per-assistant rates use your business-type questions. Service and service area questions get their own rates, marked uncalibrated: we have not yet measured how precise they are.
Compare assistants. See where you stand.
Your report separates the results for each assistant, so one strong result doesn’t hide where you’re missing.
- ChatGPT
- Claude
- Perplexity
- Google AI Mode
- Gemini
ChatGPT and Gemini answers come from their apps as people see them. Other assistants use software connections. Answers can differ from person to person.
Google AI Mode and Gemini results are sampled; we can switch them off and promise no result there.
Not checked, and why
- Google AI Overviews
- An AI Overview shows on under half of these questions, too few answers to measure a rate.
- Copilot
- We do not sample Copilot. We have no permitted way to ask it questions automatically.
A score backed by repeated questions.
AI answers change from ask to ask. So each scan asks every question you track on every assistant, 2 times.
Your rate is the share of answers that name you. Your report also shows how much that rate varies between repeats. The more it varies, the less a change between two scans means.
With fewer than 2 answered repeats, the variation shows as unavailable.
We compare only questions answered by the same assistant every time. With no matching answers, variation is unavailable.
A failed answer is left out, never counted as a miss. If no answer comes back, your rate shows as unavailable, never as 0.
Each answer in your report comes with its assistant, date, city and the sources it cites, so you can check the evidence.
Know which answers need a closer look.
Start with the questions that leave you out. Check what the answers say and whether your business facts are right.
An answer that leaves you out is one sample. It does not prove the assistant holds wrong facts about you. It does not mean the assistant never names you in its own app.
AI answers change from day to day, so we promise no rank. Compare repeated scans to see whether AI names you more often.
The questions use your trade and city.
The AI questions include your trade, city and confirmed services or service areas, without your website or email. If you ask us to find your Google Business Profile, that lookup uses your saved business name and city.
The privacy notice says what we keep, why and for how long.
