Citation Graph
A Citation Graph maps the relationships between AI-generated answers and their information sources. It reveals which sources are most frequently cited by AI systems and how citation patterns change over time.
Definition
- A Citation Graph is a directed graph where nodes are sources and edges represent citations by AI systems.
- High-centrality sources are cited more frequently and have greater influence on AI answers.
- Citation Graphs help companies understand their position in the AI information ecosystem.
Strategic use
- Map your company's citation graph to identify which sources AI uses to describe you.
- Publish to high-centrality sources (Trusted Zones) for maximum AI citation impact.
- Monitor citation graph changes to detect when AI shifts its preferred sources.
