See what Microsoft Copilot says about your brand.

Microsoft Copilot is built into Windows and Microsoft 365, where your buyers work. Visibian reads Copilot's answers to your buyers' questions on a schedule and shows who it named, and in what order.

Why Copilot matters

The assistant inside the tools your buyers use at work.

How Copilot finds its answers

It turns the question into a Bing search.

Copilot can only cite what Bing has found, and it cites a different set of sites from Google's AI answers.

Microsoft says Copilot turns a question into a short search of a few words, sends it to Bing, and writes its answer from the results.

That gives it its own sources. In SE Ranking's study, Copilot shared only 9.8% of its cited sites with Google AI Overviews, and 14% with ChatGPT. Doing well in Google doesn't mean doing well in Copilot.

What to check on your site

4 things that decide whether Copilot can cite you.

01

Be in Bing

Verify your site in Bing Webmaster Tools and check that your main pages are there. Bingbot is the program that fetches them.

02

Read Bing's AI Performance report

Since February 2026, Bing Webmaster Tools shows how often Copilot cites your pages, and a sample of the searches behind those citations.

03

Match the short search

Copilot sends Bing a few words, not the whole question. Titles and opening lines that answer that short search are easier to find.

04

See the answer around the citation

Bing counts citations. Visibian shows the whole answer: who Copilot named, in what order, and what it said about you.

Copilot beside the rest

The same questions in 6 other assistants, so you see where Copilot's sources differ.

Why it picked someone else

Why not me? says whether your page was never retrieved, read and passed over, or retrieved but not cited.

Microsoft offers no official API for Copilot's answers, so Visibian reads each one from Copilot itself, through a search-results provider, as a buyer in your market would see it. If an answer can't be read, that question is skipped for the run and costs no credit. The same questions go to the 6 other assistants on every plan. Checked 18 October 2026.

Questions

Asked before you ask.

How do I check what Copilot says about my brand?

Add your brand and the questions your buyers ask. Visibian reads Copilot's answer to each one, daily or weekly, and shows whether you were named and which sources it used.

Where does Copilot get its answers?

From Bing. Microsoft says Copilot turns the question into a short search, sends it to Bing and writes its answer from the results. If Bing can't find a page of yours, Copilot can't either.

Can I see Copilot citations without Visibian?

Partly. Bing Webmaster Tools' AI Performance report counts how often your pages are cited and shows sample searches. It doesn't show the answers, or who else was named. Visibian does.

Does Visibian use an official Copilot API?

No, because Microsoft offers none for Copilot's answers. Visibian reads each answer as a buyer would see it, through a search-results provider. If it can't read an answer, it skips that question for the run.
