The Coterie scores 43/100 for AI visibility - how well ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews can discover, identify and cite the brand.
The Coterie has a limited AI-visibility profile at 43/100 - a proxy for how readily ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews can recognise and cite it. Its strongest area is recommendation likelihood (53/100) and its weakest is visibility (31/100). It benefits from a Wikidata knowledge-graph entry, a Moz Domain Authority of 42/100 and open access for AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, etc.).
