Aggregate visibility can hide the moments where meaning starts to break. What looks stable in an average score can still erode when AI systems are asked to compare options, explain fit, or stand behind a recommendation.

Traditional search ranked pages. AI systems construct answers. As AI-driven discovery expands, brands are judged less by whether they can be found and more by whether they can be interpreted clearly enough to include.
