How rankings are produced
Four AI assistants
We query ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity with web search enabled. The same prompt set runs across all four.
Non-branded prompts
Brands are ranked by share of mentions on prompts that do not name any brand. This measures category authority, not branded recall.
Monthly canonical runs
New runs each month. Operators review and lock each run before publication. Previous runs are archived.
Brands ranked here today
Ranked brands are listed via the sub-category pages. The path to ranking is recommendation infrastructure, not advertising.

PRI for brands is the subscription product that builds the recommendation infrastructure AI cites when it recommends brands.
How PRI for brands worksFrequently asked questions
What does PRI measure for Self-Tan in United States?
PRI measures the share of AI brand recommendations within each sub-category of Self-Tan in United States. Shares within a sub-category sum to 100 percent.
Which sub-categories are tracked in United States?
The full list is in the grid above. New sub-categories are added as data accumulates in United States. Sub-categories without live runs appear under Coming soon.
Why does PRI separate countries?
AI recommendations differ by market. United States consumers receive different brand recommendations from ChatGPT and other AI assistants than consumers in other markets, because AI tailors responses to the user's region. PRI preserves that distinction with one ranking per country.
How often are United States rankings updated?
Monthly. Each canonical run is operator-reviewed and locked before publication. Previous runs are archived and remain accessible at archive URLs.
How is the AI Recommendation share calculated?
Within each sub-category, we run a structured prompt set across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity with web search enabled. Each brand mention is counted. A brand's share is the percentage of total mentions that go to that brand.
Why is my brand not appearing in United States?
Brands appear when AI mentions them in responses to non-branded category prompts in United States. Brands not yet recognised as part of AI's spontaneous category answer in this market will not appear. The fix is recommendation infrastructure tailored to the market.
Can a brand pay to appear or rank higher in United States?
No. Rankings reflect AI assistant outputs only. Brands cannot pay AI See You to influence their ranking.
Where does the methodology live?
At /methodology/. It covers prompt construction, run cadence, what counts as a mention, market scope, brand entity resolution, and the citation format.
