Citation Attribution Types

Not all citations are equal.

Prism classifies every AI citation into three attribution types. Knowing your mix reveals the true strength of your AI visibility.

CITED + NAMED
2345%
AI links your site AND mentions your brand by name. The strongest visibility signal — users see your name and can click through.
NAMED ONLY
1835%
AI mentions your brand name in the response but does not link to your site. Brand awareness without direct traffic.
CITED ONLY
1020%
AI links to your site but does not mention your brand name in the surrounding text. Traffic without brand recognition.
CITED + NAMED is the gold standard. When AI both links to your site and names your brand, users are most likely to click through.
