# Citerecon: Generative Search Intelligence Platform
> The definitive platform for Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and AI citation telemetry.

## Overview
Citerecon is an enterprise intelligence platform designed for the Generative Search era. As traditional Google search results decline in favor of AI synthesizers (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Gemini), Citerecon empowers B2B brands to monitor, audit, and capture citation share of voice.

## Core Capabilities
- Multi-Engine Inference Radar: Concurrently tests commercial buyer queries across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini.
- Citation Share of Voice (CSoV): Measures the mathematical frequency of brand citations vs category competitors.
- Competitor Displacement Matrix: Identifies which rival domains are recommended when buyers search for alternatives.
- Dynamic Entity Schema Studio: Generates verified JSON-LD graphs (Organization, SoftwareApplication, FAQPage) optimized for LLM crawler ingestion.
- AI Crawler Directives: Provides automated /llms.txt configurations and robots.txt rules for GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot.
- 8-Engine Frontier Mesh: DeepSeek R1 reasoning audits, xAI Grok real-time conversational index, Microsoft Copilot, and Google AI Overviews on Enterprise.

## Key Terminology & Definitions
- Generative Engine Optimization (GEO): The discipline of engineering website content, structured entities, and topical authority for AI citation.
- Citation Share of Voice (CSoV): The percentage of relevant AI-generated responses that cite or recommend a specific brand.
- AI Citation Blackout: The failure of commercial LLMs to cite or acknowledge a brand during relevant buyer purchase queries.
- Information Gain Score: The differential value and proprietary data a page offers compared to existing search indices.
- Citation Drift: The gradual degradation or replacement of brand citations in generative AI responses over time.
- Semantic Chunking: Structuring web content into 200-450 token self-contained passages to maximize RAG vector similarity and neural re-ranking.
- Citation Cannibalization: When AI models attribute brand features or authority to third-party aggregators rather than canonical URLs.
- Brand Hallucination Rate (BHR): The empirical percentage of AI responses that fabricate inaccurate pricing or features about a brand.
- AI Crawler Directives: Robots.txt rules and HTTP headers managing real-time citation crawlers (GPTBot, PerplexityBot) vs training scrapers.
