The Lab: measuring AI search visibility in public
This site is our test bed. We publish the prompt set, how often we run it, which engines and model versions, and the results — including the flat weeks.
- 44 prompts · 4 groups
- 3 runs per prompt per engine
- Monthly · versions recorded
Why we measure publicly
Because "trust us" isn't a method.
AI visibility is probabilistic. Anyone can show a screenshot of a good answer. We'd rather show the sampling method, the prompt set and the spread between runs, so you can judge the numbers — ours and anyone else's.
The same method runs on every client engagement. It is the measurement behind the AI search optimization service, and the baseline we record in the Search Visibility Diagnostic. What you see here is what you'd get.
