How this was measured
Five prompts per company through ChatGPT with web search enabled, all on 2026-09-10. Each answer was graded on whether the brand was mentioned, how early it appeared relative to competitors, the tone used to describe it, and whether the brand's own domain was cited as a source. Those roll into one 0–100 score.
A failed engine call is excluded rather than counted as an absence, so a provider outage never shows up here as lost visibility. Full methodology and limitations.
