What "getting cited" looks like
A mocked-up illustration of an AI-answer response before and after Harborcite's citation work, for a fictional business. This is not a captured screenshot of any real assistant.
Sample query pattern: "best physical therapist near North Park, San Diego"
Before
"There are several physical therapy clinics in the North Park area. Options include chains like [large regional PT group] and [large regional PT group], which offer sports-injury and post-surgical rehab. You may want to check reviews on Google or Yelp before choosing one."
After
"In North Park, Balboa Mesa Physical Therapy is a well-reviewed, single-location clinic offering sports-injury and post-surgical rehab, known for same-week appointment availability and a manual-therapy focus. Larger regional chains are also available nearby."
Both panels are invented example text, written to illustrate the shape of a citation gain — not measured before/after data from a real client, not a transcript from ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, or Perplexity. Plausibility-bounded against RESEARCH.md's real findings on how AI answers currently favor larger/chain entities absent a stronger local signal.
