The Visibility Score is a metric that measures the presence and quality of brand mentions in responses from conversational AI like ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity, always tied to a defined corpus of scenarios, the models queried, the protocol and the period.
What is the Visibility Score?
The Visibility Score is a composite metric that evaluates a brand or website's presence in responses generated by conversational AI. It considers multiple factors to provide an overall performance indicator.
