Methodology

A transparent benchmark, not a universal ranking score.

AI answers are probabilistic. The goal is not to pretend otherwise; it is to measure a defined market question set consistently enough to make better decisions.

01

Commercially focused question sampling

Queries are scored for commercial intent, relevance, strategic value, funnel stage, differentiation potential, testability, and likely business value.

02

Controlled provider conditions

Every run records provider, model, surface, country, language, repetition, prompt version, timestamps, tokens, cost, status, and raw response.

03

Evidence before inference

Mentions, positions, citations, page evidence, and competitor sources are shown separately from the system’s interpretation of the gap.

04

Confidence governs priority

Provider agreement, repetitions, entity matching, extraction quality, and result consistency determine confidence. Low-confidence findings cannot become high-priority actions automatically.

Visible formula

The convenience index is configurable.

Mention rate × 30% + recommendation rate × 35% + owned citation rate × 15% + position score × 20% − accuracy risk × 15%.
