Anatomy

How it's built, part by part.

01The chain of custody

Every number has a receipt.

Prompt as sent, answer as returned, verdict on that answer, and the arithmetic that turns verdicts into a score. Any figure on a chart opens to the answer behind it.

FIG.01 — THE EVIDENCE CHAINLIB/SCORING.TS

02The record

What gets stored, field by field.

The row written for every answer. Nothing is summarised before storage; on paid plans each prompt is asked several times and the agreement is stored as variance, so a lucky answer never becomes a trend.

03Personas

The founder and the CFO don't get the same answer.

Phrasing shifts with who is asking, and so do the recommendations. Run one keyword set through five buyer lenses and see where you win, and with whom.

02

What you get

Three things, done properly.

01

Per-engine visibility

Mention rate, prominence and sentiment for each engine, so you know where you win and where you're absent.

02

Share of voice

Who the engines name instead of you, tallied per prompt and per engine, with every count linked to its answers.

03

Citations & sources

The domains the engines actually pull from — Perplexity's native sources and URLs surfaced in every other answer.

Specification

Inputs, outputs, cadence, evidence.
