To audit why DeepSeek is missing your brand, you must first isolate whether the issue stems from a lack of retrieval or a failure to cite your content. Use Trakkr to monitor specific buyer-intent prompts and compare your citation rates against direct competitors. By leveraging citation intelligence, you can determine if the model is ignoring your pages in favor of other sources. Once you identify the gap, use technical crawler diagnostics to verify if your site is accessible to AI agents. This data-driven approach allows you to refine your content strategy and ensure your brand is correctly represented in DeepSeek responses.
