Who is out-publishing you, and where

AmICited tracks every URL added, updated or removed from your sitemap — and your competitors' — every day, then correlates page age against AI citation position so you know whether shipping faster actually moves the needle.

A stale bulge in one bucket usually means one migration or template, not many independent pages.
Publishing cadence, measured

A single freshness score, size-adjusted

Raw URL counts favor whoever has the biggest site. AmICited scores every host 0–100 on freshness, adjusted for size, so a small site that ships steadily is not automatically beaten by a large one that does not.

  • Freshness vs citation position — every cited page plotted by how old it is against its best citation rank, correlation not proof of cause.
  • Sitemap churn, daily — one bar per day, added above the axis and removed below, segmented by host and clickable down to the exact URLs.
  • Freshness leaderboard — a 0-100 score per host with 7-day and 30-day deltas, added/day, removed/day and a trend sparkline.
  • Directory comparison — competitor sections sized by URL count, so you can drill into whichever directory is shipping the fastest.

Freshness is not the only signal

A fresh page still has to be fast to get cited

Publishing often is not enough if the new page fails Core Web Vitals. AmICited tracks freshness and technical health side by side, because AI crawlers favor pages that are both recently updated and quick to fetch.

  • Core Web Vitals, per cited page — LCP, INP and CLS scored against a 90+ target.
  • One health score — folds speed, stability and freshness signals into a single number you can rank and act on.
  • Fix the pages worth fixing — prioritized by citation upside, not a generic warning list.
Fresh and reachable

A new page is worthless if agents can't reach it

Shipping fast only pays off if the page is actually readable by the crawlers feeding AI answers. Pair freshness tracking with a full agent-readiness audit so nothing you publish gets steered away from by llms.txt or a broken accessibility tree.

  • Agent Readiness Summary — six pass/fail checks: llms.txt, accessibility, crawler access, sitemap, WebMCP, agentic commerce.
  • Accessibility tree checker — the same structure AI agents and screen readers use to parse a page.
  • Catch it before it ships — audit a new page the same day it hits the sitemap.
90d of publishing history, from the day tracking starts History fills in from the day a host is first tracked. A full 90-day view of who is shipping and who is stalling builds automatically, no backfill required. See performance impact
