When travelers ask AI where to stay, are you named?

We ask ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google the questions travelers ask, count which hotels they name, and help you become one of them.

Travelers have started asking AI

56%of US travelers used AI to plan, book or get help on a trip in the past year

84%of hotels with 2,500+ Google reviews were named by ChatGPT, against 52% of those with under 50

82%of ChatGPT’s hotel sources were booking, travel and media sites, yet most clicks went to hotels’ own websites

Sources: Phocuswright, 2026 (US travelers); Local Falcon, 2026 (998 US hotels); Lighthouse, 2026 (4,545 ChatGPT prompts).

How it works

  1. Ask

    Five questions your guests ask, three times in each AI tool.

  2. Count

    Who’s named, how often, and where you stand.

  3. Fix

    We work on what the answers draw on, and keep checking every week.

Your free snapshot

  • Who AI names in your town, and how often
  • Where you stand, question by question
  • The sites the answers trust
  • Answers word for word, with their links

Staying named

AI answers change week to week. On the monthly plan, we keep watch, keep fixing, and show you what it brings in.

Watch
Weekly checks in ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google, and an email if you drop out, a rival overtakes you, or AI gets your details wrong.
Fix
Every new Google review answered, new pages for the questions you’re missing, and your profiles kept right.
Prove
Your count every month, what AI tells guests about you, and how many new guests found you through AI.

Why weekly: in a 2026 study of nearly 350,000 locations, ChatGPT and Perplexity had business details right only about two times in three (SOCi). And when someone suggests an edit to your Google profile, you have four days to reject it before Google may publish it (Search Engine Roundtable).

Example month

  4. Week 4 6 new reviews All answered

Questions

Isn’t this just SEO?

Partly. Google says its AI answers rely on the same things as ordinary search. The difference is what we measure: whether people asking AI hear your name.

Why does the answer change when I ask?

AI tools rarely give the same list twice, so we ask every question several times and count how often you’re named.

Is it the same as the ChatGPT app?

Close, not identical. We ask through OpenAI’s and Perplexity’s own developer tools, with your town set as the location. Google’s AI answers are checked with Otterly, a tracking tool.

How long do changes take?

Usually two to four months, as AI tools re-read the web and reviews build up.

Why monthly?

Because what AI answers draw on keeps changing: rivals collect reviews, AI tools update, and anyone can suggest edits to your Google profile. Most people look for reviews from the last three months (BrightLocal, 2026), so a one-off push fades. We check every week and tell you if something slips.

Do you need our guests’ details?

No. You send review requests from your own systems, so we never see who your guests are. The only figure we ask for is how many new guests said they found you through AI.

We already get bookings through Booking.com. Why this?

Keep them. ChatGPT cites Tripadvisor and Booking.com more than any other sites for hotels (Local Falcon, 2026), so we work on those listings too. But when AI names you, most clicks go straight to your own website (Lighthouse, 2026), where a booking pays no commission.

Will you write about our rates?

Only with every mandatory fee included in the price shown, as the FTC’s rule on hotel fees has required since May 2025. And we never use a rating or award you don’t hold.

Who runs Being Named?

Being Named is a trading name of Connor Neary, based in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and works with businesses in the US and the UK. Business details are on our terms page.
