Locke scores 40/100 for AI visibility - how well ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews can discover, identify and cite the brand.
Locke has a limited AI-visibility profile at 40/100 - a proxy for how readily ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews can recognise and cite it. Its strongest area is recommendation likelihood (61/100) and its weakest is visibility (20/100). It benefits from a Wikidata knowledge-graph entry, a global traffic rank of #347,986 (Tranco) and a Moz Domain Authority of 49/100.
