Sample report · Real engagement

This is the report every client gets.

The guarantee record

Two links dropped. Both replaced free.

Every link is monitored daily, so a drop is caught within a day, not discovered months later. Over this engagement’s ~12 months, two links dropped; both were replaced at no charge under the 12-month replacement guarantee. One of them is the payments-industry education hub in the ledger above.

Replacement guarantee honored 2 / 2 times invoked to date, both replaced free

Full disclosure, for clients

The anonymization is for this page, not for you.

The public version blurs publishers so we don’t expose a client’s link profile. Your copy of this report shows everything:

The quarterly addition

What the AI-citation section adds.

Each quarter, the report gains a before/after section built on your baseline: the fixed prompt set for your category, re-run against ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews, with model versions logged on every run.

Before / after prompt-set results

Citation presence per prompt, per engine. Measured against your baseline run, next to the dates placements went live.

Logged model versions

Every run records the model version and timestamp, so you can separate movement from model updates.

Movement, not attribution

We show the movement and the work side by side and let the correlation speak. Flat results are reported as flat.

Your baseline is the first page of this report, free.

The free AI-citation baseline uses the same format and the same methodology as everything above. Two fields, human-reviewed, and it’s yours whether or not we ever work together.
