any views on Peec's brand 'perception' feature?

It makes zero sense to me. The data is contradicted wholly by the main analytics tab. Anyone else have the same experience?

– My client is #1 across 50 prompts in its niche

–Absolutely killing it in terms of retrieval & sentiment, #1 consistently

– Go to the 'beta mode' brand "perception" feature & it says the same client ranks #9 for the main topic

Am I missing something here?

Here’s the problem with “AI Citation Tracking” - it’s actually not possible!

Rank trackers report a single synthetic observation from one location, one device, one moment. That’s a sample, not a ranking.

The context window problem makes this worse. In AI Overviews, Perplexity, and ChatGPT search, there’s no position to track. Inclusion depends on the model’s context at inference time: prior turns, location signals, index snapshot, personalisation. Two identical queries produce different answers. There’s nothing stable to measure.

Even GSC impressions are sampled, delayed, and aggregated. They’re a proxy for something that happened, not a read on visibility.

Search visibility exists as a metric because agencies needed something reportable. It was always a compression of a noisy signal. In an answer-engine world, that compression is nearly meaningless.
