Nearly every answer engine optimisation playbook for SaaS opens the same way: claim your G2 profile, complete it, run a steady review-generation motion. Our own piece on citation-source concentration called review platforms "the highest-leverage surface you directly control" — advice that holds if you have a shipped product and customers to review it.
What this covers
- First, the claim doing the rounds — and where it falls apart
- The review-site gate is real: G2 excludes beta products by policy
- Review-site alternatives that are open pre-launch
- The six citation surfaces that remain — and how they compare
- Comparison: citation surfaces open without a review profile
This is a technical summary. The full guide — with the tables and worked examples — is on our site: *When You're Not on G2: Earning AI Citations Without a Review-Site Profile*.
