The Distribution console & syndication matrix
The Distribution console at kariant.app/partner/distribution is the partner-side control plane for off-platform reach: a syndication matrix showing, per listing, its genuine status on every surface Kariant serves, per-surface inclusion switches — and a placements report built only from recorded data.
The placements reportlink
The report lists your distribution links with their server-counted clicks — the placement data that exists for your account today. If you have not created links or embeds, the report says so instead of showing placeholder numbers. Embed impressions and KDN ad requests are recorded server-side, and per-placement reporting for those surfaces lands in the console as that reporting rail is wired. On the public partner site, Embeds and KDN are labeled Beta while that rail matures.
Embed attribution is now signature-verified end to end: listing-card snippets are server-signed when a publisher copies them, and unsigned or tampered embeds render unattributed (fail-closed) instead of crediting anyone. Your listing still displays either way — the signature protects who gets credit.
Inclusion controlslink
Three levers control inclusion. Publish/unpublish is the master switch — removal is immediate on every surface, including the machine corpus. Your plan tier flips AI-surface, embed, and KDN eligibility, and the richness of your syndicated corpus record. And each listing carries three per-surface opt-out switches in the console: the AI syndication feed (llms-network), embeds & KDN units, and distribution links. Inclusion is default-on — every published listing is in until you switch a surface off. Flipping a switch records only that preference on your listing; the server rails honor it on their next content refresh, and switching back on restores inclusion the same way.
Frequently asked questions
Why does a published listing show as Plan-gated?expand_more
Kariant’s own AI answer surfaces (Klick chat, AI search, recommendations) include published listings on the Kariant AI plan or above; embeds, distribution links, and KDN units require the Agentic plan. A Plan-gated status means the listing page itself is serving — only that surface is excluded on the current plan. The /llms-network.txt machine corpus is different: it carries every published listing on every plan, with tier as a data field and richer records on plan-stamped tiers.
How do I take a listing out of the AI syndication feed?expand_more
Flip the feed switch off in the console’s inclusion controls for that listing — the same row also carries switches for embeds & KDN and for distribution links. Opt-outs are honored on the rail’s next content refresh; unpublishing removes the listing everywhere immediately.
Where do the click numbers come from?expand_more
From the click counters on your distribution links, incremented server-side as real clicks resolve through the tracked redirect. The console never shows modeled or projected reach.
Can Kariant measure my citations inside ChatGPT or Perplexity?expand_more
Not yet, and the console does not pretend to. Mentions by Kariant’s own AI surfaces are recorded and shown in the mention dashboard; external-engine cite measurement is on the roadmap and will be labeled as measured data when it ships.
