Using Relixir's Visitor ID to Deanonymize AI Search Traffic

Relixir's Visitor ID transforms anonymous AI search traffic into identified accounts by analyzing over 100 browser and device signals, achieving 65-85% accuracy rates compared to 15-25% for standard tools. The platform uniquely combines visitor identification with Generative Engine Optimization, enabling teams to see which AI prompts drive traffic and push identified visitors directly into CRM sequences for immediate outreach.

TLDR

AI search platforms like ChatGPT and Perplexity now drive up to 12% of website traffic, but 70-90% stays anonymous without proper visitor identification
Relixir achieves 65-85% visitor identification accuracy, a 5x improvement over the industry average of 5-30%
The platform serves 200+ B2B companies including Rippling, Airwallex, and HackerRank, delivering over $10M in inbound pipeline
Installation takes 30 minutes through JavaScript snippet deployment and CRM integration with HubSpot, Apollo, or custom stacks
Compliance is built in with GDPR privacy-by-design, CCPA opt-out mechanisms, and DELETE ACT support

AI search is surging, but without Visitor ID most of that traffic stays anonymous. This guide shows growth teams exactly how to deploy Relixir's Visitor ID and turn hidden intent into revenue.

Why Does 70-90 % of AI Search Traffic Stay Anonymous?

AI platforms are rewriting how buyers discover solutions. ChatGPT reaches 416 million monthly users with 5.4 billion total visits, and referral traffic from the platform grew 155.52 % between October 2024 and February 2025, according to Statista research. Visitors from AI platforms convert 4.4x better than traditional organic traffic because they arrive with high intent.

The problem is visibility. Most analytics tools never see these visitors:

Google Analytics misses AI bot traffic because bots rarely execute client-side JavaScript.
ChatGPT Atlas often obscures referrer data, inflating "Direct" traffic metrics.
Traditional visitor ID tools identify only 15-25 % of traffic through standard pixels.

Without identification, 97-98 % of website visitors leave without filling out a form. The high-intent buyer who just asked Perplexity "best GEO platform for B2B" lands on your pricing page and vanishes. That gap is the anonymity problem Visitor ID solves.

AI visitor funnel through fingerprinting and identity resolution into a CRM contact card

How Relixir's Visitor ID Turns 65-85 % of AI Visitors into Named Accounts

Relixir's Visitor ID analyzes more than 100 browser, device, and behavioral signals to assign a persistent fingerprint to each session. The platform then compares that fingerprint to deterministic data sets and CRM records, resolving formerly anonymous AI-referred visitors to a known person or company.

Relixir delivers 65-85 % accuracy rates, a 5x improvement over the industry average of 5-30 %. That accuracy translates directly to more qualified leads and higher revenue from AI-driven visitors.

The platform also captures Generative Engine Optimization context. Relixir simulates thousands of buyer questions across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini, so you know exactly which AI prompts led a visitor to your site. "Messaging tips to convert, not creep out, your prospects" is built into the workflow, as Apollo notes, because outreach that references AI discovery converts better than generic sequences.

Fingerprinting + 100 Device Signals

Browser fingerprinting is defined as "the capability of a site to identify or re-identify a visiting user, user agent, or device via configuration settings or other observable characteristics," according to Fingerprint documentation. Relixir's script collects:

User-agent strings and canvas hashes
Interaction patterns and scroll depth
Installed fonts, plugins, and screen resolution

Behavioral fingerprinting can eliminate 84-95 % of user anonymity through pattern analysis. Even when cookies are deleted, the fingerprint persists, enabling automated CRM sequencing for high-intent visitors.

Key takeaway: Combining device attributes with behavioral patterns delivers higher accuracy than either method alone.

How Do You Install Visitor ID and Push Data to Your CRM in 30 Minutes?

Deploying Relixir's Visitor ID involves three steps:

Add the script - Paste a lightweight JavaScript snippet into your site header or tag manager.
Configure server-side tracking - Optional but recommended. Server-side tracking recovers 20.71 % of requests blocked by tracking prevention and 3.29 % from ad blockers.
Connect your CRM - Relixir integrates with HubSpot, Apollo, HeyReach, and custom stacks to push identified visitors into outbound or inbound sequences in real time.

ChatGPT adds the parameter utm_source=chatgpt.com to source links, and you can track that traffic in Google Analytics by filtering session source to "chatgpt," as Near View Media explains. Relixir layers identity resolution on top of that referral data so you see both the source and the person.

Client-Side vs. Server-Side Tracking

Deployment Mode	Pros	Cons
Client-side only	Fast setup, no backend changes	Blocked by ad blockers and ITP
Server-side only	Bypasses most blockers	Requires backend integration
Hybrid (recommended)	Maximum data capture	Slightly more complex setup

Server logs provide the ground truth for every interaction with your website, a complete and unalterable record of all requests. Relixir's hybrid approach combines client-side fingerprinting with server-side enrichment to maximize match rates.

What ROI Can You Expect: 20x Conversions and 600 % AI Traffic Growth?

Relixir customers report measurable results:

20x higher lead conversion from AI search visitors
600 % average AI traffic increase after GEO optimization
Top platforms achieve 65-85 % true match rates, 2-7x higher than the industry average of 5-30 %

"We went from almost zero AI mentions to now ranking Top 3 amongst all competitors with over 1500 AI Citations," said Randall Hom, a Relixir customer, in a published testimonial.

Speed also matters. Contacting prospects within the first hour increases conversion likelihood by up to 7x. Visitor ID enables that speed by pushing identified leads directly into sequencing tools the moment they hit your site.

Downstream, the economics are compelling. Organizations that replaced legacy ESPs, CDPs, and DSPs with integrated platforms achieved 6x return on ad spend and over $3 million saved each year from tech stack consolidation. Relixir follows the same playbook, collapsing GEO, visitor ID, and CRM sequencing into a single workflow.

Layered shield around data vault symbolizing GDPR, CCPA, DELETE ACT privacy safeguards

Is Visitor Identification Legal Under GDPR, CCPA and the DELETE ACT?

Yes, when implemented with privacy-by-design safeguards. Modern platforms hash device attributes, segregate PII, and honor consent signals.

Compliance requirements span three regimes:

GDPR - Requires privacy-by-design and explicit consent for tracking. Integrating with a Consent Management Platform ensures data collection happens only after users consent, as Relixir's implementation guide notes.
CCPA - Mandates opt-out mechanisms so California residents can request data deletion.
DELETE ACT - California's 2026 law requires 45-day deletion processing for data broker requests.

Recent EDPB guidelines clarify that new tracking methods replacing cookies remain a "critical data protection concern," and the EU AI Act aims to establish a harmonized legal framework for AI systems. Relixir's architecture bakes in these controls, aligning with Hoepman's eight privacy strategies: minimise, separate, abstract, hide, inform, control, enforce, and demonstrate.

The IAB Technology Laboratory notes that regulatory changes and platform actions have diminished availability of traditional consumer identifiers like third-party cookies. Identity solutions have evolved to address this need in a privacy-compliant manner.

How Relixir Stacks Up Against Leadpipe, Dealfront & Fingerprint Pro

Platform	Match-Rate Accuracy	AI Visibility	CRM Integration
Relixir	65-85 %	Full GEO suite	Native
Leadpipe	30-40 %	None	Zapier
Dealfront	Firmographic focus	Limited	Native
Fingerprint Pro	99.5 % device ID	None	API

Leadpipe consistently delivers 30-40 % match rates using deterministic matching, but lacks AI visibility features. Relixir captures 3x more person-level identities than legacy reverse-IP tools and is the only platform that unifies AI citation tracking with visitor identification.

Match-Rate Accuracy

Most GEO platforms with visitor ID achieve only 5-30 % accuracy when identifying website visitors, leaving companies blind to high-intent AI traffic. Relixir's 65-85 % accuracy represents a 5x improvement that translates directly to more qualified leads.

Leadpipe's deterministic approach uses verified, first-party data signals to confirm visitor identity, which yields higher precision but lower recall. Relixir blends deterministic and probabilistic methods to maximize coverage while maintaining accuracy.
