Sector intelligence
Sector intelligence is a category citation benchmark: the same buyer questions, run on real answer engines, rolled up with Wilson 95% confidence intervals — one published edition that many buyers share.
The programme unlock is Dominate. The standalone diagnose SKU is a Sector Intelligence Report on /intel at $199 — no account required. This page is the programme. /intel is where you buy the paper.
A private “where you stand” addendum is computed for a buyer from their domain versus the shared rollup. The excerpt on this page is the shared paper, not that addendum. We will not dress a teaser as your standing.
Thin samples refuse to publish. Depth floors live in code. Rankings freeze once per UTC month. Buying a report does not buy a private re-rank.
Programme unlock is Dominate at $499/mo (four cycles, plus the edition). Standalone report is $199 on /intel. Site Care is included on Dominate.
Published studies + purchasable sector editions. Depth floors refuse thin papers. Buying does not buy a private re-rank. Google AI Overviews not in the four-study corpus.
Concrete artifacts in the client room — not a slogan.
Leaderboard with confidence intervals, per-category battlegrounds, source economy, engine contrasts, test-retest flip rates, and invisible brands. Negatives are rows, not omissions.
Where citations land on LinkedIn, Reddit, YouTube and similar surfaces, attributed by deterministic URL parsing. Unattributable citations are counted, never invented.
Gap plan, open-ground plan, and surface plan for the buyer’s domain. Only on their tokened copy. Dominate rooms see the linked edition plus that addendum.
On /intel: one purchase covers the first published edition for that market plus the next eleven monthly freezes. Missing markets use the commission form. We refund if we cannot measure the market honestly.
Measured data
Four studies: 96 questions, 3,563 recorded citations — editorial 89.5%; Reddit led AEO-visibility queries at 33.7% (95% CI 24.9–43.8%).
Every citation rate on a sector edition carries a Wilson 95% interval. Same-day variance panels publish flip rates. Negatives are rows. A private where-you-stand addendum is on the buyer’s copy only — this marketing page never dresses a teaser as your standing. Research updated 17 August 2026.
Strategists who need a category instrument, operators comparing themselves to a roster, and researchers who want to see whether a “sector report” publishes negatives and confidence intervals.
For buyers and researchers. Every step is something you can do without taking our word.
Measured AEO vs rebadged SEO
Ask any AEO vendor these questions — including us. Measured AEO answers with instruments and dates. Rebadged SEO answers with keyword coverage and search rank.
Show me a measured citation rate from real answer-engine checks — not search rank — and the engines you checked.
Show me one verified before/after: a page re-scored against a pinned baseline, with a system-granted verified status.
Which entity signals changed, and where is the live evidence they resolve?
Do you record the checks where the brand was not cited?
Who granted “done” — a person, a model, or a re-probe of the live page?
Show me your run-to-run flip rate. If the tool will not publish variance next to the headline rate, the decimals are decoration.
Framework licensed from our category positioning record. No named competitors — demand instruments and negatives, not slogans.
Published edition — not your site.
