AI citation
A source link an AI answer attributes information to. The clearest signal that your content shaped the answer.
A citation is the model pointing at a page as the basis for something it said. It is stronger than a passing mention, because it can send a reader to your site and it confirms the model leaned on your content.
You cannot edit the answer or see the index, but you can be the most relevant, well-structured, current, and trusted option for the questions that matter to you. Those are the factors engines weigh when they decide what to cite.
