Hello, Mentio

Guests now ask AI which hotel to choose. Mentio shows whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI recommend you — and tells you exactly what to do to be recommended more often. As far as we know, it's the first system of this depth in the hotel industry.

Hello, Mentio
ℹ️
in short | In short: guests increasingly ask AI for accommodation recommendations. Mentio measures weekly whether ChatGPT, Gemini and other AI engines recommend your hotel, shows where you stand against your competitors, and gives you concrete actions to appear more often in the answers.

Over the past year or two, the way guests search for hotels has quietly changed. Fewer and fewer people scroll through Google's results list — more and more simply ask artificial intelligence: “Which is the best wellness hotel in Hévíz for a long weekend?” — and they often book whatever the AI recommends first.

If your hotel isn't there in the AI's answers, you're invisible to the guest — before they've even made a decision.

The problem, until now, was that this couldn't be measured. You didn't know whether the AI mentioned you, what it said about you, who was outranking you, and how many guests were actually arriving through these new channels. That's exactly why Mentio was created.

Perhaps the first in the hotel industry

As far as we know, Mentio is currently the first system in the hotel industry to analyse your hotel's AI visibility at this level and depth — across all the leading AI search engines, Google's AI surfaces and the classic Google results, all at once.

It doesn't look at a single metric, but at the full picture — and, most importantly: it doesn't just measure, it gives you an action plan. This offers tangible help to grow your traffic from AI search, AI engines and Google — and through that, your bookings and revenue.

What does Mentio measure?

  1. 1
    AI visibility

    Every week, with real questions, we check whether ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity mention you — and in which position. You get a visibility score and a competitor ranking.

  2. 2
    Google AI Overview & AI Mode

    Whether you appear in Google's AI answers, and whether you're cited as a source.

  3. 3
    AI Mirror

    Shows you word for word what the AI says about you: how it positions you, what it sees as strengths and weaknesses.

  4. 4
    Reputation

    How your Google rating and reviews are trending — a strong trust signal that AIs also watch.

  5. 5
    Rankings

    Your Google position (mobile + desktop) for your important keywords, and the real related questions guests ask.

  6. 6
    AI Tech & E-E-A-T

    Whether AI bots can even reach your website, and how quotable and credible your content is — with a concrete fix for every issue.

  7. 7
    AI Traffic

    How many real visitors and how much revenue arrive from AI sources (by connecting Google Analytics).

What does it help with? The point: more bookings

Without Mentio
  • You don't know if AI recommends you
  • You can't see who's outranking you
  • A flood of data, no direction
  • Missed AI and Google traffic
With Mentio
  • You measure weekly across 3 AI engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity) and in Google AI Overview + AI Mode
  • Competitor ranking and a clear market picture
  • A prioritised to-do list — “do these three things”
  • More direct bookings, without OTA commission
ℹ️
tip | AI search is today one of the fastest-growing yet least-used guest acquisition channels. Whoever moves now is years ahead of their competitors.

The biggest shift of the past few years is that search itself has changed: guests no longer necessarily choose from ten blue links — they ask an AI model where to stay. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity — and now Google itself, with AI Mode and AI Overviews. And the answer is no longer a list of results, but two or three specific hotel names: a decision already made.
