How we counted
Each question was asked on every engine several times over the 28 days. ChatGPT and Gemini answers are what each app shows a logged-out visitor; Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode and Bing AI Mode come from the search engines' results pages; Perplexity, Claude and Grok answer through their APIs. A brand counts when its name or its site is in the answer, found by name matching or by a language model reading the answer. The intervals allow for answers to the same question moving together.
What these numbers don't say
They cover the questions we chose for our own product, not everything people ask. AI answers change from run to run and week to week. Being named isn't being recommended first, and a brand we don't track may be named more often than the table shows.
