Limitations
- This is one response per prompt/provider pair in each run; model output can vary between runs.
- The fixed 20-prompt AI API Brands category does not estimate general market share or brand awareness.
- Presence share and citation share are relative only to the reviewed 17-brand universe; untracked brands are excluded from those denominators.
- OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google are both evaluated brands and configured model providers; no self-provider bias correction is applied.

Measurement Semantics
- Confidence
A value of 1.0 means the complete frozen cohort passed the deterministic extraction and publication gates; it is not a statistical confidence interval.
- Citation Share Denominator
Distinct answer-level HTTP(S) citation URLs whose URL-derived hostname matches any reviewed brand domain.
- Presence Share Denominator
The sum of reviewed-brand answer-presences. One answer may contribute presence to multiple brands.
- Mention Coverage Denominator
60 answers: all 20 prompts multiplied by 3 configured providers.
- Provider Citation Share Denominator
Distinct reviewed-brand-domain citations within the named configured model API provider's 20-answer cohort.
- Recommendation Presence Denominator
36 answers: recommendation-intent prompts multiplied by 3 configured providers.
- Provider Mention Coverage Denominator
20 prompts for the named configured model API provider.
- Provider Recommendation Presence Denominator
12 recommendation-intent prompts for the named configured model API provider.

Recommendation Semantics
Presence means mentioned or cited in an answer to a recommendation-intent prompt. It does not claim positive recommendation, endorsement, or sentiment.
