AIB · Artificial Intelligence Bureau

Methodology

AI answers are stochastic. One prompt × one run is not a measurement. Visibility is a distribution: repeats, paraphrases, language as authored, citations, position, competitors.

AI visibility methodology

What AIB measures

  • Prompt families (not the raw prompt list — that is not the product)
  • Modes: memory, grounded, retrieval, consensus
  • Model identity: requested vs actual model, search engine, search_calls
  • Two master numbers: AI Memory Score and AI Live Presence Score
  • Confidence from observation budget, not from marketing adjectives

How the Bureau works

  1. A planner selects cells in a measurement cube. We never run the Cartesian product.
  2. Hebrew probes for Israel are authored in Hebrew and sent as-is.
  3. Scoring weights are profile-based. The 0–100 Presence Score is UX; the matrix is the asset.
  4. Historical comparison requires the same scoring version and comparable prompt families.

What this is not

  • We do not publish proprietary prompt text.
  • We do not equate API output with consumer UIs.
  • We do not treat correlation as causation without a designed before/after.

Questions

What is Pulse confidence?

LOW. Pulse is 3 unique prompt types and about 15 model observations.

What are the default Presence weights?

Discovery 20%, recommendation 15%, share of voice 15%, citations 15%, accuracy 15%, consistency 10%, own-domain 5%, sentiment 5%. Profiles may override.

How often can information change?

Whenever a model, index, or page changes. Monitor plans rescan; a single Pulse is a snapshot.
