Notion Cue started in late 2025 as an internal project: an SEO team trying to understand why their clients ranked on Google but disappeared completely from ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini answers. No existing tool tracked this. So we built one.
We went public in February 2026 with three LLMs, one scan tool, and a free tier. Five months later: 14 tools, 6 LLMs, 3,400 SEO practitioners using it weekly, and zero venture funding.
SEO tells you where you rank on Google. Notion Cue tells you whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Grok, Copilot, and Claude cite you when buyers ask questions in your category.
We fire thousands of niche prompts across all six engines, extract citation patterns, and translate them into an AEO score with a prioritised fix list. Every recommendation maps to a specific signal that moves the score.
The scoring methodology is documented publicly. We don't score on vibes.
Launched with ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude citation tracking. AEO score (0–100) across 3 LLMs. Free tier: 1 domain per day. Reached 400 users in the first two weeks without paid acquisition.
Expanded to 5 LLMs after user requests for Perplexity and Bing Copilot coverage. Added sentiment analysis and the first technical audit module: llms.txt validation and robots.txt AI-bot checking.
Added competitor tracking: up to 10 domains, side-by-side AEO scores, and citation gap analysis showing queries where competitors appear but you don't. Claude integration for natural-language report summaries.
Released the E-E-A-T Audit with per-pillar radar chart scoring. Schema markup validator checking 12 schema types. Topic Cluster Map for content architecture. Agency plan with white-label PDF exports.
Added Grok (xAI) as the 6th tracked LLM. Released the AI Acquisition Report showing session-level data from AI-referred traffic. BLUF Optimizer now generates 3 rewrite variations. Scan speed improved 40% through parallel LLM probing.
Everyone on the Notion Cue team has spent years doing SEO for real clients. We didn't design this from the outside looking in.
