How to read this profile
Sampled AI visibility is the share of the analysed AI answers in this study in which a brand was named. Recommendation rate is the share of those appearances where the answer actively recommended the brand rather than mentioning it in passing. Per-engine visibility is measured against the answers analysed on that engine only. Confidence reflects sample size: Directional up to 20 qualifying observations, Moderate from 21 to 100, Strong above 100.
