That last number is the whole thesis: engines cite third parties 92% of the time. AI visibility is mostly won off your own website — which is why it has to be measured, not assumed.
Engines don't behave alike
Same prompts, same days — different engines. Answers from the last 28 days; engines with fewer than 20 answers in the window are omitted rather than shown on thin data.
