Understanding Mention Network

What is Mention Network?

The first incentivized data network that tracks and boosts brand visibility in AI results.

  • Mention Network is where everyday AI users get rewarded for sharing how they use tools like ChatGPT and Gemini — especially when brands are involved.
  • With just a few clicks, you can start contributing anonymized data from your AI activity. Each contribution earns you Mention Points, calculated based on your activity and quality.
  • This data helps brands understand how often they're mentioned in AI tools, in what context, and with which keywords — building a new layer of AI Visibility.
  • Your chats stay private. We never collect names, emails, or personal info — only brand-related mentions.

You're already using AI. Now it's time to earn from it.

Why Mention Network matters?

In an AI-first world, showing up in the right answers is the new competitive edge.

  • People are no longer Googling — they're asking ChatGPT, Gemini, and other AI tools. This shift is redefining how visibility works online — and most brands aren't ready for it.
  • If your brand isn't showing up in AI answers, it's being left behind.
  • Mention Network exists to fix that.
  • 🧠 Brands: understand and improve their AI visibility
  • 👥 Contributors: earn rewards by contributing real AI interaction data
  • 🌐 Everyone: benefit from a transparent, decentralized data network

This is the foundation of visibility in the AI-first internet — and everyone can take part.

Comparison between centralized AI platforms and Mention Network's decentralized approach to brand visibility data

Why Mention Network had to be decentralized?

AI visibility shouldn't be controlled by a few platforms.

  • Most AI platforms today operate in centralized, API-driven silos, embedding brand visibility data directly into their own workflows — with zero transparency or user ownership.
  • As Andreessen Horowitz explains, while SEO evolved as a decentralized, data-adjacent market, GEO is becoming its inverse: a centralized system that turns AI into the channel.
  • We believe that model doesn't serve users — or brands.
  • That's why Mention Network is different:
  • 🧠 Transparent: Everyone can see how brand mentions are tracked in AI models.
  • 👥 User-Owned: No gatekeepers. Data lives in a public, permissionless network.
  • 💸 Fairly Rewarded: The people generating insights finally share in the value.

AI is becoming the next Google — let's not make the same mistakes twice.
