NEW YORK - TelAve -- Five Blocks today launched AIQ, a self-serve SaaS platform that gives communications teams on-demand visibility into how AI answer engines represent their brands.

Starting at $99 per month, the platform lets PR professionals monitor and analyze how eight major AI models - ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, AI Overview, Perplexity, Grok, Claude, and Google AI Mode - represent their brands, executives, and narratives in real time.

Unlike traditional GEO platforms focused on rankings and visibility metrics, AIQ is built around a different question: what is AI actually saying about your brand, and where is that narrative coming from? The platform tracks narrative themes, identifies which sources each AI model trusts, and reveals how AI constructs its understanding of companies and executives across multiple models simultaneously.

AIQ currently tracks more than 5,000 topics across industries - from corporate brands and C-suite executives to product launches, crisis situations, and employer reputation - giving communications teams a window into the AI ecosystem that is rapidly becoming the primary way stakeholders find and form opinions about brands.

"Search engine optimization taught us to chase rankings. AI optimization requires something entirely different," said Sam Michelson, CEO of Five Blocks. "You can't game AI with keywords or backlinks. You need to understand which sources AI trusts, which narratives are forming, and how those stories evolve across different models. AIQ is the first platform built specifically for that challenge."

Key Capabilities:

• Multi-Model AI Tracking: Every major AI model weights sources differently and surfaces different narratives. AIQ tracks eight simultaneously - ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, AI Overview, Perplexity, Grok, Claude, and Google AI Mode - so you always know which version of your brand story is winning, and where.
• Source Intelligence by Model: AIQ identifies exactly which sources - Wikipedia, Reddit, news outlets, PR distributions, industry sites - are shaping each AI model's understanding of your brand. This is influence mapping for the AI era, not backlink counting.
• AI-Generated Theme Tracking: AIQ automatically identifies and categorizes the narrative themes appearing across AI responses, then tracks momentum over time - so you can see whether your messaging is breaking through, or whether a competing narrative is gaining ground.

"Communications teams are entering a new phase where AI answer engines aren't just distributing information, they're actively shaping how brands are interpreted," said Amanda Coffee, CEO of Coffee Communications. "AIQ gives PR teams what they've desperately needed: visibility into how AI constructs narratives, which sources it trusts, and how those stories evolve in real time. This is how communicators prove strategic value to the C-suite while actually protecting the brand."
