Methodology
This report uses 80 completed shared category answers covering 20 questions answered by
ChatGPT,
Gemini and
Google AI Mode. Private project prompts and brand-specific monitoring are excluded.
All planned answers in this sample completed semantic analysis. This is a sample of AI responses, not a market-share estimate or test of product quality.
Exact-claim counts group identical extracted wording within a brand, topic and sentiment. Topic assessment counts deduplicate answers within each brand, topic, sentiment and platform. A single answer can belong to multiple sentiment groups.
- Visibility
- Distinct analyzed answers mentioning a resolved brand divided by all analyzed answers in that scope, including answers mentioning neither brand.
- Share of voice
- Brand-answer mentions divided by all resolved brand-answer mentions in the scope, including brands outside this pair.
- Average position
- Average first-appearance rank among resolved entities in answers where a saved appearance exists. Lower is earlier; this is not an explicit recommendation rank.
- Topic visibility
- Answers with an assessment of this brand on this topic divided by answers with any resolved brand assessment on this topic. Higher visibility includes negative assessments and does not imply a product strength. Topic denominators overlap and must not be summed.
- Sentiment and evidence
- Sentiment is assigned per topic assessment. An observation without a topic has no sentiment value. Quotes preserve the saved AI wording and are not independent product verification.
Numbers are rounded for display; differences use the original values.
