Synthetic probe
- Engine/model and access mode
- Exact prompt and cohort
- Location, account state and timestamp
- Captured response and repetition count
Public methodology tool
Use this framework without an email. It does not query answer engines from this page and therefore reports no current brand result. It helps you design a reproducible probe set and honest evidence labels.
Three non-interchangeable classes
Synthetic probe · observed citation · real referral
Classification worksheet
Example result
Example: ‘In 30 approved prompts run twice on one engine on 20 July, 8 responses mentioned the brand and 3 cited an owned URL.’ Do not rewrite that as ‘27% AI market visibility.’
Responses vary by model, account, region, personalization and time. Probe coverage reflects the designed sample. Referral analytics may undercount or misclassify answer-engine journeys.
Paid deployment · human authority
Choose paid AI-visibility capacity when your prompt cohorts and evidence policy are approved.
