Google’s #1 result lost 58% of its clicks.
The rules for getting cited changed.

AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity now sit above traditional search. The pages they cite aren’t the ones ranking — and the signals that earn citations weren’t on any 2020 audit checklist.

Four moves. One closed loop.

Audit → Write → Inject → Attribute. The first platform built natively for AI search referrals.

01 · Audit

Score every page on the five signals AI engines actually cite.

Structural clarity, freshness, original data, citation-bait position, authorship. Every page in your library bucketed into KEEP / REWRITE / KILL with a 0–10 score and a suggested brief.

// audit run
POST “domain”: “sageseo.ai”
{ keep: 12, rewrite: 40, kill: 48 }
02 · Write

Voice-grounded drafts in 3 min.

Sage’s AI writer synthesizes your voice from your existing articles. Internal links woven inline. No generic AI slop.

03 · Inject

Brand CTAs auto-injected.

Inline pull-outs, mid-article callouts, sticky bars. Each one carries a unique outcome ID so every click ties back to the source article.

04 · Attribute

First-party outcome tracking.

Sage’s 3KB script logs every CTA click, form submit, and conversion — then stitches the chain query → article → CTA → outcome → revenue. No GA4 needed; AI referrals included.

05 · Loop

The loop closes.

Sage tells you which articles drove which outcomes, then suggests the next batch of content based on what AI engines cited AND what actually converted.

Works with the stack you already have.

Drop a single plugin into WordPress or paste one script tag into Shopify. Five-minute setup. Zero changes to your existing theme, hosting, or CDN.

W

WordPress

Auto-publish articles + featured images, OG/Twitter meta, 410/301 redirect handling, native forms, CTA auto-injection, first-party visitor tracking — all in one plugin.

S

Shopify

One sage-js script tag. Blog publishing via the Shopify API. CTA injection on product + collection pages. Per-product outcome attribution.

Stop pretending pageviews are revenue.

GA4 was built for paid acquisition, not editorial. It misses ChatGPT referrals, drops cookie-bound conversions, and groups every AI engine into “other.” Sage’s first-party outcome tracking sees what GA4 can’t.

GA4 alone Status quo

  • ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude all dumped into “other / unknown”
  • Loses conversions when third-party cookies are blocked
  • Sampling kicks in above 10M events/query — your big months distort
  • Server-side conversion stitching requires GA4 360 ($150k/yr)
  • Article-level attribution requires custom UTM + event hacks
  • No view of which page got cited by which AI engine

Sage AI-search-first

  • Per-engine AI referral tracking (ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI Overviews, Claude)
  • First-party cookie + server-side enrichment — no consent banner blocked
  • No sampling on owned data — every event counts
  • Sub-$59/mo. Article-level attribution included on every plan
  • Daily AI citation sweep — see exactly which pages got cited where
  • Outcome → article → query — the closed loop, on one screen

Plans from $59/mo. Every tier includes the full content engine.

Upgrade to Agency ($249/mo) for the closed-loop attribution stack. Agency Pro ($949/mo) adds AI Visibility across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and AI Overviews.

Common questions, plain answers.

Do I have to migrate off WordPress?

No. Sage installs as a single plugin alongside your existing theme + plugins. Auto-yields to Yoast / RankMath / SEOPress if any are active. Zero theme changes required.

How is this different from Surfer or Clearscope?

Those grade content against Google’s top 10. Sage grades against AI engine citations — a different signal. Plus we write the rewrites, inject the CTAs, and attribute conversions back. Those tools stop at “what to write.”

What happens if I cancel?

Your articles stay on your site (we publish to your WordPress / Shopify, not ours). Your analytics history exports as CSV. The CTAs and tracking scripts are removed when you deactivate the plugin.

Does the AI writer actually sound like us?

It synthesizes a voice profile from your existing top-cited articles, then writes new drafts in that style. You can paste 2–3 of your own paragraphs as an explicit override if the synthesis misses the mark.

Can I see what AI engines cited my pages?

Yes. Daily sweep across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews — Sage logs which of your URLs got cited, for which queries, by which engine. Per-article scoreboard.

How long until I see results?

AI citation velocity changes within 7–14 days of publishing a fresh rewrite. Conversion attribution is real-time. The 90-day window is when compound effects show in your MRR.

Your content should
pay rent. Let’s make it.

7-day trial. No card. If it doesn’t move the needle in 90 days, you’ll know exactly which articles fell short — and we’ll show you how to fix them.
