01Everything in every scan
Six outputs — concrete, documented, honest.
The list below covers every deliverable in the order Lokrix AI produces them. Where a figure is a prediction or an estimate, it is labelled as such.
- Every answer engine — scored separately
- Lokrix AI runs your prompts through ChatGPT (Bing-grounded), Google AI Overviews (Google-grounded), Google AI Mode (scored separately from AI Overviews — they cite the same URL only ~14% of the time), Perplexity (live Google + Bing search), Gemini (Google-grounded), Grok (X + live web; beta — live via a web-search fallback, not yet counted in headline scores), and Claude (ClaudeBot-crawled). Each engine produces its own presence probability, not a blended average. Microsoft Copilot (Bing-grounded) is tracked as a corroborating grounding signal rather than a separately scored engine.
- Honest limitEngine availability and grounding behaviour may change. We model each engine on its currently-observed retrieval behaviour and update when behaviour changes.
- An auto-generated prompt universe
- Lokrix AI crawls your URL, detects your brand and industry, and generates the natural-language questions real buyers ask AI engines — category comparisons, expert recommendations, direct brand queries, and competitor contrasts. The universe is editable: add, remove, and weight prompts by funnel stage. All prompts are tracked over time.
- Honest limitThe prompt universe is generated by a language model from your URL and publicly visible content. It is a starting point, not an exhaustive map of every possible buyer question.
- Monte-Carlo presence probability — with a 95% CI per prompt
- Each prompt is sampled K times per engine with browsing/grounding enabled, varying temperature, persona, and locale across runs. The fraction of runs where your site is mentioned or cited is resolved into a calibrated presence probability. A 95% confidence interval is always reported alongside the point estimate. The CI narrows as K increases.
- Honest limitThis is a probabilistic measurement, not a guarantee. A 72% presence probability means 72% of sampled runs mentioned you — not that you will appear in 72% of real-world queries. Non-determinism in AI answers is a first-class fact, not a product limitation.
- Feature-level reasoning — why the score
- SHAP-based attribution shows which page and brand signals drove each engine's score: expert quotations, citation density, Bing freshness rank, Google top-20 position, schema markup depth, earned-media corroboration (Reddit, Wikipedia, G2), and content structure. You see which features helped, which hurt, and by how much — per engine, per prompt.
- Honest limitFeature attribution is derived from the calibrated scoring model, not from direct access to internal engine ranking signals. The explanations reflect the model's learned patterns, which are calibrated against real engine outputs but are not the engines' own logic.
- Competitor share-of-voice
- Across the same prompt universe and the same engines, Lokrix AI measures the presence probability of your defined competitors. Share-of-voice (SOV) is the comparison of those probabilities — who is cited more, on which engines, and for which prompts. SOV is always shown with the same 95% CI honesty as your own score.
- Honest limitCompetitor SOV depends on the same sampling variance as your own score. A narrow gap between you and a competitor may not be statistically significant — the CI band will show when it is.
- A prioritized optimization plan with simulated uplift
- The optimization engine ranks concrete, actionable moves by their predicted visibility uplift: adding expert quotations, embedding statistics, adding cited sources, improving earned-media corroboration, and improving schema markup. Each recommendation is simulated through the scoring model before you spend a sprint on it — so you can see the predicted lift, ranked, before acting.
- Honest limitPredicted uplift is a model simulation, not a measured outcome. The Princeton GEO paper found +30–41% citation lift from quotations, statistics, and cited sources, on average. Your results will depend on your specific content, industry, and competitor baseline.
02Engine grounding — per engine
Each engine grounds on a different index. Scores reflect that.
The table below shows the retrieval index each engine actually uses and its strongest observed citation bias — the reason a single aggregated "AI score" would be meaningless. Source: Answer-engine citation-source analyses (2024–2026), summarised in CLAUDE.md §4.
- ChatGPT
- Bing
- Bing top-10 rank + freshness
- Google AI Overviews
- Google top-20; separate from AI Mode
- Google AI Mode
- Shares a cited URL with AIO only ~14% of the time
- Perplexity
- Google + Bing (live)
- Over-weights Reddit (~47% of top citations) + freshness
- Gemini
- Google Search grounding; schema-sensitive
- Grok (xAI)
- X + live web
- Grounds on X posts + live web; freshness-weighted (beta — live via a web-search fallback; draws not yet counted in headline scores)
- Claude
- Parametric + ClaudeBot
- Factual density and entity clarity are the primary levers; parametric knowledge with shallow ClaudeBot live search

03Provenance — always visible
Every data point is badged with how it was produced.
Lokrix AI distinguishes three measurement methods. The badge is always shown — a sampled or predicted result is never dressed up as a live measurement.
- live
- A real-time engine run executed at the moment of the scan. Most accurate; consumes one credit per engine × run.
- cached
- A stored result from a recent live run, served within the cache window. Identical accuracy to live; no additional credit cost.
- predicted
- The calibrated gradient-boosted tree model scoring from page and brand features. Wider CI than live; no credit cost. Powers the optimization simulator.
04What a scan does not do
Honest limits of the measurement.
These are not gaps to be fixed in a future release — they are inherent constraints of measuring a probabilistic, non-deterministic system from outside.
- No guaranteed outcome
- A high presence probability means you appeared in most sampled runs. It does not guarantee you will appear in any specific user's query — AI answers vary by context, time, and the model version in production.
- No direct engine API access
- Lokrix AI has no privileged access to ChatGPT, Google, Perplexity, or Copilot internals. Scores are derived from observed outputs and a calibrated model — not from internal ranking signals.
- No control over recrawl timing
- How fast a content change reaches an AI answer engine depends on when crawlers re-index your page and how quickly the answer engine's index refreshes. Plan for days to weeks (see the Get Found guide).
- No llms.txt ranking effect
- There is no published evidence that llms.txt changes AI citation rates. Lokrix AI will never report it as a lever. The file can be created without harm, but it is not measured or recommended as an action.
