Definition

AI Content Gap Analysis is the process of systematically identifying content opportunities by analyzing what AI systems cite, reference, and recommend for queries relevant to your business. This analysis reveals topics, questions, and content types where you could improve AI visibility.

Traditional content gap analysis focuses on keywords and search rankings. AI Content Gap Analysis extends this by examining AI-generated responses to understand what sources AI systems prefer, what content formats they cite, and where your competitors have visibility that you lack.

The process involves querying AI platforms with relevant prompts, analyzing which sources are cited, comparing your visibility against competitors, identifying topics where you're underrepresented, and prioritizing content creation based on opportunity size and business value.

AI Content Gap Analysis informs content strategy by revealing specific content needs rather than just keyword opportunities. It answers questions like: What topics do AI systems discuss where we're not cited? What competitor content gets AI visibility that we should create? What content formats does AI prefer for our topic area?
