AIVI (AI Visibility Index) (Method)

Id

Type
Method Method
Other names
Yapay Zeka Görünürlük Endeksi, AIVI Method, AIVI Framework
Definition
A methodology that measures how often and how a business is mentioned by AI engines such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Groq. It measures the memory layer and the search layer separately; uses a question set fixed together with the client, made of natural questions that ask for a recommendation; runs 5 repetitions for the baseline and 3 for monthly tracking; and reports results as ratios. The score has three components: visibility, rank and attribution. It includes reservation-language analysis and a hallucination guard. What is measured is public on GitHub; component weights, question sets and production code are closed. The AIVI framework is also published on Zenodo (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.21180989).
