Don't Measure Once: Measuring Visibility in AI Search (GEO)
As large language model-based chat systems become increasingly widely used, generative engine optimization (GEO) has emerged as an important problem for information access and retrieval. In classical search engines, results are comparatively transparent and stable: a single query often provides a representative snapshot of where a page or brand appears relative to competitors. The inherent probabilistic nature of AI search changes this paradigm. Answers can vary across runs, prompts, and time, making one-off observations unreliable. Drawing on empirical studies, our findings underscore the need for repeated measurements to assess a brand's GEO performance and to characterize visibility as a distribution rather than a single-point outcome.

Generative Engine Optimization at Scale: Measuring Brand Visibility Across AI Search Engines
People increasingly get answers straight from AI search engines like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini rather than scrolling search results. Brands that once focused on search engine optimization (SEO) must now opt…
Measuring Visibility using Atmospheric Transmission and Digital Surface Model
Reliable and exact assessment of visibility is essential for safe air traffic. In order to overcome the drawbacks of the currently subjective reports from human observers, we present an approach to automatically derive v…
Quantifying Uncertainty in AI Visibility: A Statistical Framework for Generative Search Measurement
AI-powered answer engines are inherently non-deterministic: identical queries submitted at different times can produce different responses and cite different sources. Despite this stochastic behavior, current approaches …
