AI recommendation monitoring and GEO optimization

From model answer to retest, every step keeps its evidence.

Edith retains questions and answers. Homer governs the approved fact versions used to judge and generate. Friday records authorized work and verified publication results. Edith then retests comparable conditions.

One method, three product responsibilities.

Shared protocol: method versions, evaluators, human review, qualification and stated scope apply across all three products.

Measurement principles

Separate evidence types

Audited capability, sampled representation and operating maturity are reported independently.

Preserve raw observations

Every claim can be traced to a source, response or test record.

Version everything

Prompt sets, models, judges, facts and scoring rules carry effective dates.

Show change stability

Repeated sampling shows the strength, consistency and durability of observed movement.

Use comparisons

Changes are read against a preserved baseline and relevant comparison tasks.

Define the scope

Coverage, data sufficiency and review status make every conclusion easier to apply.

The evidence record

RecordPrimary ownerWhat remains inspectable
Question and runEdithCustomer question, locale, model, mode, retrieval state and timestamp
ObservationEdithRaw answer, sources shown in the answer, refusal, tool use and run state
Fact decisionHomerSource, candidate, conflict, accountable owner, approved version and validity
Work and publicationFridayFinding, task, content version, approval, target URL and publication verification
Comparable retestEdithMatched measurement contract, comparison record and bounded verdict

Calibration

  1. Benchmark setMaintain websites with known strengths, faults and controlled changes.
  2. Human reviewDouble-score material claims and adjudicate disagreements.
  3. AI evaluationUse versioned judges only for tasks with measured reliability.
  4. Online verificationCompare predicted improvements with repeated observed outcomes.
  5. Regression suiteRe-run stable tasks after model, crawler or rubric changes.

Change policy

Method versions are never silently overwritten. Material changes receive a new version, migration note and back-test. Historical reports retain the rules and systems under which they were produced.

Current public method status: V1 research protocol. Weight calibration and cross-industry norms remain under active validation.
