The Variask Pixel

By the Variask team · Updated

In short

The Variask Pixel is a single line of code for your site that counts visits arriving from AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Copilot, by landing page. It is locked to your domain so nobody can inflate your numbers, and it collects only the visit source and page path.

  • One line of code, any website.
  • Visits from AI assistants by page.
  • Locked to your domain, nothing personal collected.

What it does

  • Counts each visit once, and tells AI apps, search engines and other sources apart.
  • Shows which pages AI sends people to.
  • Sits next to AI crawler tracking, so you see who reads and who visits.
  • Works without Google Analytics.

How to install

  1. 1In Variask, open your brand and go to Integrations.
  2. 2Under Variask Pixel, copy the snippet, which carries your public key.
  3. 3Paste it before the closing body tag on every page, or add it through your theme or tag manager.
  4. 4Visits from AI assistants appear in your traffic reports.

Pixel and crawler snippet

The pixel counts people who click through from an AI answer. The server snippet counts AI crawlers that read your pages. Use both to see the full path from being read to being visited.
