The problem

Traditional rank tracking does not work in AI search.

AI answers are generated dynamically. A brand can be mentioned in one response and absent in the next — with no fixed rank to compare against.

Definition

What is AI Search Visibility?

AI Search Visibility measures how often and how prominently a brand appears in AI-generated answers for relevant prompts.

Mention rate

How often the target brand appears in completed AI responses.

Recommendation position

Where the brand appears when an answer presents a genuine ordered recommendation.

Citation rate

How often the target website is cited by providers that return source evidence.

Share of voice

The target brand's appearances compared with all detected brand recommendations.

AI answers vary over time, by prompt, provider, model and available source context.

Why results differ

Why results differ between AI providers.

Comparisons across providers should treat each engine as an independent surface.

  • Different models and system behavior
  • Different source access and web-search capabilities
  • Different response formats and citation support
  • Different update cycles and prompt sensitivity

Methodology

How Reflyma measures AI visibility.

Every score traces back to a stored response, a formula version and a provider.

Neutral prompt set

Prompts are reviewed and tracked without automatically inserting the target brand into non-branded queries.

Response-level evidence

Metrics are calculated from completed provider responses stored with provider, model and timestamp information.

Deterministic and assisted analysis

Brand mentions, aliases, competitors, positions and citations are analyzed using structured rules and validated AI assistance.

Versioned methodology

Every report stores the metric formula version used at the time of calculation.

Visibility Score v2 · Experimental

A composite score, with every component disclosed.

Visibility Score is a weighted composite of five signals. It is not a guaranteed ranking or commercial outcome, and every historical report retains its original formula version.

  • · Share of voice is reported separately.
  • · Citation data may be unavailable for some providers.
  • · Component availability is disclosed with each report.
  • Non-branded mention score40%
  • Recommendation position score25%

What AI visibility metrics cannot guarantee.

Reflyma reports observed answer behavior. They are directional and evidence-backed, not a guarantee of business outcomes.

  • AI answers are dynamic and can change between reports.
  • Results can vary by prompt wording.
  • API results may differ from consumer applications.
  • Provider models and capabilities change over time.
  • Citation support is inconsistent across providers.
  • A mention is not always a recommendation.
  • Position may not exist in unranked answers.
  • Visibility does not guarantee clicks, traffic, leads or revenue.
  • Historical comparisons require comparable prompt and provider sets.
