About This Report

How to use this page

Persona view: this page is scoped to this persona's queries alone.
Use Case

See what AI reads before it answers

Fanout queries are the web searches a model runs mid-answer. The pages it retrieves and cites are the sources shaping its recommendations, so treat the citation lists as your target list for earning coverage, mentions, and links.

How It's Calculated

Where the numbers come from

Scoped to the runs where models used web search. Same rank-weighted scoring as LLM Search Visibility, plus every URL the searches retrieved (citation sources) and every URL actually cited in answers (citations), aggregated by frequency.

Overview

What's on this page

Domain rankings for web-search-augmented runs and the full citation and citation-source URL lists, filterable by model.

LLM Data

Top LLM-recommended domains

How often AI models recommended each domain specifically via web-search fanout queries when answering GC at Scaleup queries, a subset of the runs behind the main LLM Search Visibility report, not the full combined dataset. The left chart shows raw recommendation counts, the right shows what percentage of queries included that domain.

Score (below) is the primary ranking metric: a weighted-reciprocal-rank sum across every model and run, where each model's contribution is scaled by that model's influence weight.

Only these five models ran web-search fanout queries. The checkboxes filter these charts and the Citations / Citation Sources lists below; updates automatically as you check/uncheck.

LLM Data

Citations

Every URL the models actually cited in their final answers to GC at Scaleup fanout queries, aggregated by how often each URL was cited. Filtered by the model checkboxes above.
