The evidence
Listicles are the #1 most-cited
Listicles are the #1 most-cited
content type in AI search
When an assistant answers “what’s the best…”, it leans on roundups more than on any other kind of page — more than articles, more than your own product page, more than your homepage.
- 1 Listicle 21.9%
- 2 Article 16.7%
- 3 Product page 13.7%
- 4 Category page 11.3%
- 5 Other 9.9%
- 6 Discussion 7.5%
- 7 How-to guide 6.2%
- 8 Homepage 5.3%
- 9 Profile 5.1%
- 10 Comparison 2.2%

How it works
From a list you're missing
From a list you're missing
to a citation you own
AI assistants don't invent recommendations. They summarise the roundups that already rank. Getting onto those roundups is the work — this is the shortest path to it.
2
Reach the right person
Not a generic info@ address. The writer's name, their LinkedIn, their X profile, plus the publisher's direct email, contact form and media-kit page — already gathered.
3
Get listed, get cited
A placement on a ranking roundup earns a backlink today, and becomes part of the source material assistants pull from when they answer “what's the best…” tomorrow.
Outreach data
The writer, not the switchboard
Every listicle links plenty of LinkedIn profiles — experts quoted in the body, the publisher's staff, whoever shared it. We store a profile only when it verifiably belongs to the person who wrote the article.
- Name-verified profiles — an unmatched profile is dropped, never guessed
- Direct emails — taken from the publisher's own site, not guessed from a pattern
- Fallback routes — contact forms, media kits and submission pages

Workflow
Triage once, export what you need
File each listicle as a Competitor, an Opportunity, or Other. Then export just the emails for a mail-merge, or just the LinkedIn profiles for a connection sequence — scoped to the category and bucket you're working.
- Emails-only export — one row per address, not one per article
- LinkedIn & X export — only rows that actually carry a profile
- Full CSV — 24 columns, for your own pipeline

FAQ
Questions worth asking
How does getting on a listicle help with ChatGPT or Perplexity?
Assistants don't hold opinions about software — they summarise what ranks. When someone asks for “the best CRM for startups”, the model draws on the roundups that already rank for that query. Being named on those pages is how a product enters the answer, and the citation usually credits the publisher, which is why the placement matters more than the link alone.
Is the contact data accurate?
Emails come from the publisher's own site — contact pages, footers and about pages — not guessed from a pattern. Author profiles are stored only when the profile verifiably belongs to the person credited with writing the article; an unmatched profile is dropped rather than guessed. That means some rows have no profile, which is honest: roughly four in ten articles simply don't publish one.
What does “updated daily” actually mean?
The crawler runs continuously against a 390-keyword taxonomy. New roundups are added as they're published, existing ones re-checked for ranking changes and refreshed contacts, and thinner categories filled out over time. Every update is included in your one-time payment.
Can I export the data?
Yes. Full CSV with all 24 columns, or focused exports — emails only, or LinkedIn and X profiles only — scoped to whatever category, subcategory and bucket you have selected. Emails are deduplicated by address so a mail-merge never contacts anyone twice.
Why lifetime instead of a subscription?
The dataset compounds — it gets more useful the longer it runs, and charging monthly for something you'd mostly use in bursts didn't seem right. One payment, and you keep every update.
Your competitors are already on those lists.
Every roundup that ranks without you is a citation going to someone else.
