What is the AI Citation Score?

The AI Citation Score is a proprietary metric that quantifies how prominently and frequently AI systems reference your brand when answering relevant prompts. It ranges from 0 to 100.

How It's Calculated

The score factors in:

• Frequency: How often your brand is mentioned (40% weight)
• Position: Where you appear in the response (30% weight)
• Platform Coverage: How many AI platforms cite you (20% weight)
• Sentiment: Whether mentions are positive or neutral (10% weight)

Score Interpretation

• 80-100: Dominant AI presence -- your brand is a top reference
• 60-79: Strong visibility -- regularly cited across platforms
• 40-59: Moderate visibility -- mentioned sometimes, room to grow
• 20-39: Low visibility -- occasionally mentioned
• 0-19: Minimal presence -- rarely cited by AI systems

Improving Your Score

1. Create comprehensive, authoritative content for your key topics
2. Ensure your content directly answers common questions in your space
3. Build topical authority through consistent, deep coverage
4. Use structured data and clear formatting
5. Monitor the Insights page for specific recommendations
