Summary

Summary

What really stood out to me in this data is that "visibility" and "results" are completely different things. More AI citations mean nothing if they don't drive revenue or leads, and conversely, a low score can still be valuable if you're cited for specific high-value keywords. Rather than being swayed by measurement tools, I believe what's needed now is metric design that works backward from business goals.
