Limitations
- This is one response per prompt/provider pair in each run; model output can vary between runs.
- The fixed 16-prompt AI Customer Agents category does not estimate general market share or brand awareness.
- Presence share and citation share are relative only to the reviewed 12-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.

The sum of reviewed-brand answer-presences. One answer may contribute presence to multiple brands.
