How much detail would you like?
Practical
Useful for relative visibility in AI responses or other mention environments. However, the metric does not automatically measure awareness, mood, reach or sales.
Example scenario: Over 100 defined procurement questions are recorded monthly, how often Flow-alerta and selected competitors are mentioned in several AI systems.
Use as a relative trend metric with fixed promptset, defined competition set and repeated measurements; additionally check sources, tonality and technical relevance.
