Population and method
Built from 80,769,585 citation appearances across 725,777 unique domains in the latest valid snapshot for 1,928 tracked brands, observed from October 3, 2025 to October 14, 2026.
Where the evidence stops
The index is a changing panel of tracked brands and prompts, not a random sample of all AI responses.
Domain share is observational. It does not establish causal influence or reveal the full retrieval set.
The hand-maintained source taxonomy is partial: 88.40% of citation appearances remain in “other”.
Model attribution, response-level citation denominators, geography, raw prompts, and raw responses are not retained in the public aggregate.
What to do with this
URL breadth distinguishes the size of the observed evidence layer from domain-level concentration.
