heygen.com shows up in 8 of 16 AI visibility checks.
HeyGen has partial AI visibility as a recommended vendor but is losing source citations to creatify.ai, digitalbrew.com, ltx.io, synthesia.io, and visla.us across pricing, limitations, and alternatives queries.
The highest-leverage fix is publishing on-site answer hubs in comparison, guide, and limitations formats with expert authorship and freshness dates to convert partial vendor visibility into direct citation across all buyer-question families.

Across 4 buyer topics, AI cites sources like creatify.ai — not heygen.com.
▸ CITATION MATRIX BY TOPIC ◂
Whether AI names you per topic — and who it cites instead.
▸ WHO AI CITES INSTEAD ◂
The sources AI pulls from for your topics. Get placed in these and you move.
1. Package proof. A fresh benchmark, customer outcome, or teardown third-party editors can cite.
2. Pitch the cited pages. Prioritize creatify.ai, digitalbrew.com, ltx.io, synthesia.io.
3. Compete where outreach fails. Publish a better dated guide for the same buyer question.
▸ CITED PAGE BLUEPRINTS ◂
The page patterns AI cited for your topics — the formats to emulate on your own site.
AI uses listicles and best-of roundups to answer vendor-shortlist questions quickly.
First move: Build or pitch a fresh best-of page for the highest-value buyer question in the sample.
AI uses tools and templates when buyers want an immediately usable asset.
First move: Ship one lightweight template tied to a recurring buyer workflow from the query sample.
AI uses comparison and alternatives pages when buyers ask about tradeoffs or switching decisions.
First move: Publish one alternatives/comparison page that matches a measured buyer query and names the criteria AI should reuse.
AI assembles answers from passages it can lift — direct answers, a stat to quote, a named author to trust. Here's what the crawl of 10 pages found.
▸ CAN AI QUOTE YOU? ◂
The crawl-level signals that actually move AI citation, strongest first.
What that means
Missing visible attribution and trust cues
No visible authorship or expert/company attribution was detected.
AI is leaning on third-party sources for this category
Sampled answers cited sources like creatify.ai, digitalbrew.com, ltx.io instead of the audited domain.
Issues found: 1 critical · 2 high · 10 medium · 1 low
Access hygiene: llms.txt ✓ · ai.txt ✗ · 16 AI-bot directives · 0 slow Core Web Vitals · 2 static extraction gaps. Low-impact hygiene plus crawl/render context — included for completeness, not where citations are won.
Ordered by citation leverage and deduplicated across the audit — each one is something the agent can execute for you.
Expand thin indexable pages with useful original content or noindex low-value pages. Give each indexable page enough substance to satisfy a distinct search intent.
First step: Confirm important pages are indexable and that robots.txt is not blocking search or AI crawlers you want to allow.
Only 0 of 3 freshness-relevant sampled pages showed publish or modified dates; 3 looked undated. AI systems tend to prefer fresh, attributable sources for fast-moving categories, but legal/privacy/terms-style pages are not counted in this signal.
First step: Pick the highest-value affected page, make the smallest visible fix, then rerun the audit to confirm the signal changed.
No author bylines were detected. Clear authorship, company attribution, and sameAs links help AI systems attribute claims confidently.
First step: Add visible company/expert attribution to priority pages, then connect it with author or organization schema where the page supports it.
Add descriptive anchor text to empty internal links. Make each link explain the destination topic for users, search engines, and AI crawlers.
First step: Confirm important pages are indexable and that robots.txt is not blocking search or AI crawlers you want to allow.
Shorten overlong meta descriptions to about 70 to 160 characters. Put the clearest benefit or answer near the front.
First step: Pick the highest-value affected page, make the smallest visible fix, then rerun the audit to confirm the signal changed.
