When AI engines like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini answer questions about shipment visibility software, project44 comes up most often, appearing in 37.5% of responses across the engines tested. GoComet and Shippeo round out the top three, but project44 leads by a meaningful margin, reflecting how consistently it appears across different AI platforms and query types.
The sources AI engines cite most when discussing this category include gartner.com alongside more specialized domains like gpx.co, locus.sh, macropoint.com, and flowlity.com. Gartner carries weight as a third-party analyst source, while the others tend to be industry-specific platforms with topical content on supply chain and logistics. When AI engines repeatedly pull from the same domains, those sources are effectively shaping which brands get recommended.
For a buyer using this page, the practical takeaway is that AI engines reward brands with strong third-party validation and consistent coverage across logistics-specific publications, not just general software review sites. If a brand ranks lower here but is on your shortlist, check whether it has recent coverage on niche supply chain sources, since that is the kind of topical authority that influences AI recommendations and signals genuine category credibility.
At a glance
What we observed in this categoryauto-generated
project44 leads the shipment visibility software category with a visibility score of 37.5%, more than 12 percentage points ahead of the next two brands, GoComet and Shippeo, which are tied at 25.0%. The category average visibility sits at just 5.6%, meaning project44 is appearing in AI responses at nearly seven times the average rate. That gap is significant because brands outside the top three have visibility scores of 12.5% or lower, with six of the ten tracked brands recording zero visibility entirely.
The divergence between visibility and citation is the sharpest signal in this dataset. Shippeo holds 25.0% visibility but earns zero citations, meaning AI describes it but does not link to it. FarEye presents the inverse case, scoring 0.0% visibility yet achieving a 37.5% citation rate, matching GoComet's citation figure. GoComet itself shows the strongest balanced position, with 25.0% visibility and 37.5% citations, while project44's citation rate of 12.5% is low relative to its dominant visibility score.
Google AI Mode is the top engine for every brand in this dataset, indicating the category's AI presence is concentrated on a single platform. The top cited sources include third-party domains such as gartner.com, gpx.co, and locus.sh, alongside brand-owned domains like fourkites.com and fareye.com. The presence of non-brand sources like flowlity.com and youtube.com among top citations suggests AI is drawing on a wide editorial and review-based source pool rather than anchoring purely on vendor content.

How to read this 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 →
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 30 days and refresh this page automatically. How AI search ranking works →
