Semantics
This measures structured-citation sourcing visibility. A citation is not a recommendation, endorsement, authority score, quality judgment, correctness judgment, or consumer-app share.
Limitations
- The board covers one fixed AI Visibility · Startup Founder prompt category, not every topic or AI answer surface.
- Query-specific resources collapse to their query-free page path to maintain the public privacy boundary.
- Citation position is adapter-normalized structured-citation ordering, not prose sentiment.

Canonicalization
- Start only from upstream-validated absolute HTTP(S) citations.
- Derive the hostname from the URL; ignore provider domain labels.
- Remove fragments and normalize default HTTP(S) ports upstream.
- Remove the complete query string at the public page boundary.
- Deduplicate each resulting page within one prompt/provider answer and keep its best positive 1-based position.
