How We Calculate AI Search Visibility
Our tracking metrics are designed to represent organic user experiences, avoiding speculative assumptions.
1. Simulated Session Testing
We run multiple parallel response scans across different AI engines to account for query variation, sampling variation, and model temperature shifts.
2. Citation & Source Detection
We parse search footnotes and outbound links to detect whether your canonical domains or specific landing pages are referenced in the direct answer.
3. Share of Voice Calculation
Your score is the percentage of positive recommendation slots you occupy compared to identified competitor sets for the same prompt groups.
Honest Disclosure Statement
No software can guarantee inclusion in AI search answers. Google AI Overviews and ChatGPT search are subject to continuous algorithmic shifts, semantic intent changes, and user personalization variables. We provide visibility measurements, competitor gap calculations, and page audits to maximize citation readiness.
