For every answer, three lists. Mentions: the brands the answer names. Cited: the pages the engine shows as its sources. Found but not cited: the pages the engine read for this answer and did not use. Together they say where the engine’s opinion of a brand comes from.
01 // One real answer

Georganics, ChatGPT, October 2026

Question: “What are good natural oral care products in the UK that are alternatives to Weleda?”

The engine read Georganics’ page, named Georganics, and gave the buyer no link to it or to anyone. A visibility number says “named: yes” and stops. The lists say the page was read and not used as evidence, and name the six pages it was weighed against.

02 // Definitions

How each list is counted

Counts for a brand come from the brand’s own pages in each list: pages of its website, and pages whose cited text names the brand.

Ahrefs groups cited and background-read pages together as “Found in”. PokPok keeps them apart: a cited page is evidence the engine stands behind; a page merely read is not. The IAB’s standard calls for the same distinction (Citation Rate counts only linked or named references).
03 // Where the opinion comes from

Four states, per answer

NAMED, YOUR PAGE CITED

From evidence

The strongest state: the engine read you, cited you, and named you. Georganics on ChatGPT: 13 of 80 answers in 10 days.

YOUR PAGE FOUND, NOT CITED

Read, then dropped

The engine opened your page and did not use it. Toyota on ChatGPT: 17 of 149 answers; Georganics: 3 of 80. These pages are the agency’s work list.

NAMED, NO PAGE OF YOURS

From memory

The engine names you without reading or citing anything of yours. Toyota on ChatGPT: 126 of 149 answers. Memory moves slowly; a page can be changed today.

YOUR PAGE CITED, NOT NAMED

Used, not credited

The engine cites your page as a source but the answer never says your name. Rare for the brands below (Georganics: 0 of 80 on ChatGPT), common for brands whose pages are reference material.

Figures: AI Visibility Truth, 9–18 October 2026, one answer per question per engine per day. They are examples of the states, not benchmarks.
