What is an AI Discovery Score?

The AI Discovery Score is a 0-100 composite metric measuring how discoverable a brand is across AI-powered answer engines. It factors in citation rate (how often the brand appears in AI answers), platform coverage (which AI engines mention the brand), mention frequency, and answer context. Higher scores mean AI systems are more likely to recommend or reference your brand when users ask relevant questions.

What AI engines does the brand checker cover?

The AI Discovery Score draws from data across ChatGPT (OpenAI), Perplexity, Claude (Anthropic), and Gemini (Google). The full Mentd. platform tracks your brand across all four engines with live prompt monitoring.

What does citation rate mean?

What the AI Discovery Score measures

The AI Discovery Score is a 0–100 composite metric that captures how often and how prominently your brand appears in AI-generated answers. It's designed to be the Domain Authority equivalent for the AI era — a single number that lets you benchmark your AI visibility against competitors.

A score of 0 means your brand is invisible in AI answers. A score of 100 means you appear in virtually every relevant AI response. Most brands in competitive categories score between 15–45.

Common questions

How is this different from manually asking ChatGPT about my brand?

Manually asking ChatGPT gives you one data point from one session. The AI Discovery Score draws from aggregated prompt data across multiple engines, question types, and query intents - giving a statistically meaningful citation rate rather than a single anecdote.

How often is the score data updated?

The free public score is based on corpus data updated periodically. The full Mentd. platform runs live prompt tracking on a schedule you control - daily, weekly, or on-demand.

Can I check a competitor's score?

Yes. The AI Brand Checker works for any domain, not just your own. Use it to benchmark your AI Discovery Score against competitors.

What does 'corpus estimate' vs 'claimed score' mean?

A corpus estimate is calculated from Mentd's aggregated AI answer data. A claimed score is calculated from live prompt runs associated with a verified Mentd. account for that domain - it's more precise and up to date.
