Source analytics

Source-read volume

Source analytics shows which domains AI systems read while answering prompts.

It is one of the clearest ways to see where answer support comes from. Before an AI system names a brand, it often reads pages that shape the answer.

Start with source-read volume. It tells you how often sources are being used.

Read-to-named rate

Read-to-named rate shows how often a source that was read also gets named in the answer.

This is a key gap. Being read is not the same as being recommended.

Source mix

Source mix groups reads by type. The dashboard uses types like Your site, UGC, Social, Editorial, Reviews, Reference, Competitor, and Corporate.

Use this to understand what kind of web proof AI systems rely on.

Trusted page patterns

Trusted page patterns show which pages or domains appear again and again.

Do not copy blindly. Look for the proof style and page type.

Source analytics

Source analytics shows which URLs and domains help shape AI answers before mentions happen.

Pages AI systems trust

Pages AI systems trust are pages that repeatedly support answers.

They may be your pages, competitor pages, review pages, or third-party pages.

Source opportunities

Source opportunities are places where stronger proof could help. This might be an owned page, a third-party page, or a competitor-favored source.

Evidence review loop
