AI Competitive Analysis
Evaluating how your brand's AI visibility compares to competitors. This includes mention frequency, recommendation rates, and sentiment across AI platforms.
Detailed Explanation
AI Competitive Analysis provides crucial insights into your relative position in the AI visibility landscape. It involves systematically testing how AI engines respond to queries relevant to your business and analyzing which brands are mentioned, how frequently, in what order, and with what sentiment. This analysis reveals your competitive position in AI conversations: Are you mentioned as often as key competitors? Do you appear in top recommendations? Is your sentiment more or less favorable? Are there query types where competitors dominate? AI Competitive Analysis helps identify opportunities (queries where you should be mentioned but aren't) and threats (areas where competitors have strong visibility). It also reveals best practices by showing what competitors are doing to earn strong AI visibility. Regular competitive analysis is essential because AI visibility can shift as models are updated and as competitors optimize their presence.
Examples
Testing 50 relevant queries and finding your brand is mentioned in 30% while your main competitor appears in 60%
Discovering that competitors consistently rank higher in AI recommendations for a specific product category
Identifying that a competitor has more positive sentiment in AI mentions due to recent positive press coverage
Why It Matters
AI Competitive Analysis reveals your true position in the AI-driven market. It helps you understand where you're winning, where you're losing, and what you need to do to improve your competitive position in AI conversations that drive customer decisions.
