Scores & metrics

How the AI Visibility Score is calculated and what each subscore tells you about your brand's standing in AI answers.

01

Overview

Every run produces a deterministic score using the same public formula. There is no learned model and no hidden weighting — the same inputs always produce the same output, so your scores can be audited and compared across time.

02

Visibility Score formula

The top-level AI Visibility Score is a weighted average of four subscores. Each subscore is normalized to 0–100 before weighting.

Visibility = (0.35 × Presence)
           + (0.25 × Position)
           + (0.20 × Coverage)
           + (0.20 × Consistency)
03

Subscores explained

The four subscores isolate different dimensions of AI visibility. A brand can rank well on presence but poorly on position, and the subscore breakdown exposes that asymmetry.

Presence
Share of prompts where your brand is mentioned at all.
Position
Average rank of your first mention within each response.
Coverage
Breadth of prompt categories where you appear.
Consistency
Stability of your mentions across ChatGPT and Gemini.
04

Confidence score

Every run also carries a confidence band based on the number of prompts that actually returned parseable responses. Runs with fewer than twelve successful prompts render the score in a muted state and warn that the sample is small.

Low-confidence runs

Treat low-confidence scores as directional only. Re-run or expand your prompt set to tighten the band.
