The analysis tracks how frequently AI models mention your brand when responding to generic, unbranded queries related to your industry or business objectives.
Understanding Your Visibility Score
- Core Visibility Metric: Your visibility score represents the percentage of AI responses that naturally mention your brand. This score indicates how often AI systems recommend or reference your company when users ask relevant questions without specifically naming brands.
- Competitive Benchmarking: Compare your visibility score directly against selected competitors to understand your relative market position. Higher scores indicate stronger AI search presence and better organic brand discovery.
- Time Period Analysis: Adjust the analysis timeframe to track visibility trends over different periods. Monitor score evolution to identify improvement patterns or declining performance that requires attention.
- Model-Specific Filtering: View results across all five AI models or filter by specific platforms like Perplexity, ChatGPT, or Claude. Each model may show different visibility patterns based on training data and response algorithms.
