Concepts

Topics and queries

Topics group related search queries. Each topic represents a theme like "Core Product", "Competitor Comparisons", or "Industry Trends". Queries within a topic are the actual questions that get asked of AI platforms during a visibility scan.

Each query has a reach level:

LevelMeaningExample
coreDirect brand queries"What is Example?"
adjacentCategory-level queries"Best AI visibility tools"
aspirationalBroader industry queries"How to improve SEO with AI"
visionaryThought leadership queries"Future of AI in marketing"

Personas

Personas represent different buyer types (e.g., "Technical Startup Founder", "Enterprise CMO"). Each persona gets different AI responses because they have different context, intent, and system prompts. Scans test how AI platforms respond from each persona's perspective.
