Compare channels at a glance
See which domains win each discovery channel, and where a brand is strong in one but missing from another. Use the over- and under-performer tables to find channels where competitors hold an edge you can close, or gaps you can take first.
Where the numbers come from
LLM, Fanout, and Organic columns use a rank-weighted score: a domain at position 1 counts for more than one at position 10, summed across every query run. AI Search is a plain citation count because Google's AI Overviews carry no rank data.
What's on this page
Side-by-side rankings for LLM recommendations, web-search fanout, Google's AI Overviews, and organic results, plus an aggregate view and per-channel over/under-performer callouts.
LLM vs Fanout vs AI Search vs Organic
Compare recommendation patterns for Neutral across four channels side by side: pick a model for LLM and Fanout, toggle Google/Bing for Organic. AI Search has no model choice (it's Google's own AI Overview, a single source, not a multi-model API) and no rank field, so it's shown as a plain citation count rather than a rank-weighted score like the other three.
The two boxes below the four channel charts offer several views of the same data; use the tabs to switch charts. Every view derives from the four charts' data directly, normalized 0-100 within each channel, and updates with the same dropdowns.
Pure LLM: Over- vs. Under-performers
For Neutral, domains ranked by percentile rank within each channel (100 = top domain in that channel, 0 = present but ranked last, a dash = never appeared in that channel's results at all). Over-performers (left) rank far better in Pure LLM than they do on average across Fanout, Google AI Overview, and Organic Google. Under-performers (right) are the mirror case: domains that do well across Fanout, Google AI Overview, and Organic Google but rank poorly, or don't appear at all, in Pure LLM.
