Depositors ask AI which DeFi protocol is safe to use.
Is yours named?
Before committing capital, depositors and treasury teams ask ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity which DeFi protocol is safest and which yields actually hold. Citably shows DeFi protocols which protocols those engines name, then deploys the fix from the same dashboard.

The AEO problem facing DeFi protocols
Every DeFi deposit starts as a safety question
Nobody deposits into a DeFi protocol without first asking whether it has been exploited, who audited it, and whether the yield is real. ChatGPT answers from audit reports, governance forums, and TVL trackers, then names two or three protocols. Citably shows DeFi protocols which of those sources decided the answer.
Unexplained yield reads as unsustainable yield
When a DeFi protocol publishes an APY without saying where the return comes from, AI engines either skip it or hedge around it. The protocols that get recommended are the ones that documented the mechanism, so depositors asking about sustainable yield are pointed elsewhere.
A clean record you never published counts for nothing
Plenty of DeFi protocols have years without an incident and multiple audits, all of it recorded nowhere an engine can read. AI answers about protocol safety are built from what is published, and Citably tracks which DeFi protocols hold those answers week over week.
Similar to AEO for blockchain and AEO for crypto exchanges, the same free scan shows exactly where AI engines skip DeFi protocols.
DeFi protocols winning AI answers with Citably
“Safety questions named two protocols and never ours, despite four audits and no incidents. Citably found where those answers came from and we now appear in six of ten deposit prompts.”
“The staking rewards calculator we deployed through Citably explains where our yield actually comes from. AI engines quote it now instead of skipping us on sustainability questions.”
“Governance forum posts were driving more AI answers about our protocol than our documentation ever did. Citably made that visible and we changed where we publish.”
How Citably gets DeFi protocols recommended by AI engines
Three steps, run by Citably for DeFi protocols.
Scan your DeFi protocol
Enter your protocol URL and Citably runs the real prompts depositors ask before committing capital, such as the safest DeFi lending protocol to deposit into, across ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity.
See the DeFi answer gaps
The Citably dashboard shows every DeFi prompt where your protocol is missing, which protocol AI names instead, and whether the answer rested on an audit report, a TVL tracker, or a governance thread.
Deploy and win DeFi citations
Citably deploys citable assets built for DeFi protocols, including the staking rewards calculator and the compliance readiness audit, drafted for your team to approve before anything publishes.

Staking Rewards Calculator
Depositors pick an asset and term, then see expected rewards on your protocol and where the yield originates. AI engines cite structured reward data when people ask which DeFi protocol pays sustainably.
Audit and Incident History
A dated record of every audit, the firms behind them, and your incident history stated plainly. Structured for AI engines to quote when depositors ask which DeFi protocol is safest.
Compliance Readiness Audit
A guided audit covering the custody, jurisdiction, and reporting questions treasury allocators raise before depositing. Schema marked so AI engines cite your protocol on institutional DeFi questions.
Frequently asked questions
Citably tracks AI visibility for DeFi protocols across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude. Citably runs the real prompts depositors and treasury teams ask about protocol safety, audits, and sustainable yield, records which DeFi protocols each engine names, and reports the source behind every answer.
AI engines are cautious about yield claims in DeFi and tend to name protocols that documented where the return comes from. A DeFi protocol publishing an APY with no stated mechanism gives an engine nothing safe to repeat, and Citably shows which published sources won that answer instead.
Yes. Citably records the full answer text for every DeFi prompt, including how an engine characterises your audits, exploits, and time in production. Protocols use that to correct outdated or wrong descriptions at the source rather than only in their own documentation.
DeFi protocols using Citably typically see their first new AI citations within 2 to 4 weeks of deploying assets, as AI engines re-crawl the audit reports, trackers, and forums they pull DeFi answers from. Citably tracks won, lost, held, and new citations for your protocol week over week.
AI engines are already telling depositors which DeFi protocols are safe.
