The measurement database, published

Every table below is generated from the live database on our own properties, with the number of answers behind it, the engines and the frozen question sets. JSON and CSV for each. Terms in the tables, such as graded, named rate, cited rate, grounded and share of voice, are defined in the glossary. Licensed CC BY 4.0: use it, link it, say where it came from. Rows dated 8 and 10 August 2026 came through a retired third-party feed whose engine list included Google AI Overviews. Every other row is our own rig, which probes ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity only: without web search on 21 and 22 July 2026, and with it from 15 August 2026. Page generated 2026-09-21.

Named rate vs cited rate, per measurement

JSONCSV

For each published own-property measurement: the rate at which the brand is NAMED in the answer text and the rate at which its own domain is among the CITED sources. The two can diverge sharply; that divergence is the first finding on /findings.

Per-engine named rate on identical questions and dates

JSONCSV

The same frozen questions, the same day, each engine separately. Engines that search the web at answer time and engines answering from model knowledge disagree, often sharply; a single-engine screenshot is not a measurement.

Share-of-voice concentration in measured categories

JSONCSV

How concentrated the named brands are in each measured category: the leader's share of voice and the top-three share. Low concentration means no single named brand dominates the answers. It does not show whether the answers are held, because a topic can be owned by the websites the answers are built from rather than by any brand they name.

Domains the engines cite, across our own daily collection

JSONCSV

Every source list attached to a graded answer on our own properties, counted by domain. 624 graded answers. This is the source layer: who the engines read when they explain a choice. Our own domains are named; every other source keeps its rank, counts, engines and dates but not its name, because publishing citation counts against a business that did not consent is not ours to do.
