Methodology
- Engines. We query AI answer engines (ChatGPT) and record whether Citonyx appears in the answer as a link, quote, or brand mention.
- Repeats. The protocol targets ≥ 3 runs per prompt/engine pair to account for model non-determinism; the current snapshot has 2โ3 runs per prompt. Every individual run is stored as its own record.
- ChatGPT channel. Observed via an anonymous, search-forced backend channel (no signed-in account, search explicitly triggered) so results reflect public, logged-out behavior.
- Planned engines. Gemini and Perplexity are on the protocol but not yet measured โ no runs are included for them yet, so the figures above describe ChatGPT only.
- No UI scraping. We do not scrape answer-engine web UIs beyond permitted/anonymous access. Answers are not replayable, so we preserve short verbatim excerpts as evidence.
- Fixed prompt set. The citation panel is a fixed set of 19 GEO-related prompts. It is intentionally narrow, so these numbers describe that prompt set โ not all of AI search.
- Updates. Data grows as runs accrue. Current snapshot: 56 runs over 1 measurement date (latest June 30, 2026).
