At a glance
What we observed in this category
ThoroughCare leads the chronic care management software category with a composite score of 27.5, compared to a category average visibility of just 1.2 percent. ChartSpan sits second at 20.0. The gap between these two and the rest of the ranked field is substantial: every brand from rank 4 onward holds a composite score of zero. That concentration at the top means a buyer querying Google AI Mode is almost exclusively receiving information shaped by two vendors, which makes the AEO landscape here unusually narrow.
A clear divergence exists between being named and being cited. Prevounce holds a 37.5 percent citation rate despite zero visibility, meaning Google AI Mode references it as a source without surfacing it as a recommended brand. ThoroughCare shows the inverse pattern more fully: 62.5 percent citation and 12.5 percent visibility. ChartSpan aligns more closely across both metrics at 12.5 percent visibility and 37.5 percent citation. This named-versus-trusted split is a defining structural feature of AEO performance in this category.
The top cited sources in the category are dominated by domain names that do not correspond to the headline software brands: healtharc.io, humhealth.com, chroniccareiq.com, omnimd.com, and kangaroohealth.com all appear as citation anchors. Only chartspan.com from the top five brands appears in that source list. Google AI Mode is drawing heavily on third-party and directory-style domains to construct its answers, which means brand-owned content is not the primary anchor for AI-generated responses in this category.

How to read this AEO ranking
Four things worth knowing before you act on the numbers above. These are the same definitions across every industry page — for category-specific observations, see the What we observed section above (where available) and the per-brand insights inline in the ranking.
Visibility = being named
A brand's visibility % is the share of AI answers that mention it by name in the response prose. This is who AI engines actively recommend to the buyer. More on visibility →
Citation rate = being trusted
Citation rate is the share of AI answers that include the brand's domain as a clickable source link. This is what the AI treats as authoritative evidence, different from being named. More on citation rate →
Top engine differs by brand
The "top engine" column shows which AI surface each brand performs best on. Big gaps between a brand's score across engines usually points to specific content or schema gaps. How AI engines pick sources →
AEO rankings move month to month
AI engines re-crawl and re-rank on shorter cycles than classical search. We re-audit every brand on this list at least every 90 days and refresh this page automatically. How AI search ranking works →
