What this means for Scratch

Scratch ranks in the top 3 for 1 of 8 sub-category where AI engines recommend brands. There are 7 sub-categories where Scratch appears but ranks below top 3. This is the recommendation gap.

Why AI recommends Scratch in some categories and not others

AI systems do not recommend brands on popularity alone. They favour brands with clear, structured and citable information for the specific questions buyers ask. Scratch performs strongly where those signals are present, and weaker where they are limited. That difference is Scratch's Recommendation Gap.

AI See You closes that gap by setting up an AI Knowledge Centre: a deep, defensible data asset structured so AI can read, trust and cite it. It is real, sourced, expertly structured information built for the way AI reads, and it is the opposite of generic AI content or short-term hacks.
