I ran a small experiment this week out of curiosity. I asked AI systems like ChatGPT and Perplexity the same type of question multiple times, things like: “best AI visibility platforms” “tools that track brand mentions in AI answers” “platforms for AI search visibility” What surprised me was how much the answers changed depending on the wording. Across different prompts I saw names like Peec AI, Otterly, Profound, AthenaHQ, Rankscale, Knowatoa, and LLMClicks appear in the responses. But they didn’t appear consistently. Sometimes one brand was mentioned first. Sometimes it disappeared completely. Sometimes a completely new list appeared. Even when the question was basically the same. It made me realize something interesting: AI recommendations don’t behave like Google rankings. They seem much more context-dependent and probabilistic. Now I’m curious about a few things: If AI assistants become discovery engines, how will visibility actually be measured? Do brand mentions inside AI answers lead to any real traffic yet? Or are we still in the early experimentation phase of this whole “AI visibility” idea? Would love to hear if anyone else here has tried similar tests. submitted by /u/Real-Assist1833
