Brand mentions correlate with AI visibility roughly three times more strongly than backlinks, which puts the biggest brand lever off your site entirely.
- An engine that meets two versions of the same number trusts neither, so I keep every citable figure in one tested source of truth and the build fails when any surface drifts.
