Every time Superlines tests a prompt against an AI engine, it captures the full response and runs it through analysis.

What is a response?

A response is the full text answer that an AI engine gives to a tracked prompt. Superlines stores and analyzes each response to extract:
  • Brand mentions — does the response name your brand or any competitor?
  • Website citations — does the response reference any URLs?
  • Sentiment — is the tone positive, neutral, or negative?
  • Content structure — headers, lists, links, and formatting

How responses are collected

1

Prompt submission

Your tracked prompts are sent to each enabled AI engine.
2

Response capture

The AI engine generates a response. Superlines captures the full text (text, HTML, and markdown).
3

Storage

Responses are stored in BigQuery for analytics.
4

Analysis

Brand detection and citation extraction run automatically.
Responses are collected daily for active prompts. The testing frequency depends on your plan.

Brand detection

Superlines detects brand mentions using:
  • Your brand name (normalized for consistent matching)
  • Brand name variations you’ve configured
  • Brand exclude list to avoid false positives
  • Competitor names and their aliases
For example, if your brand is “Nike Running” and you’ve added “NRC” and “Nike Run Club” as variations, all three will be detected as mentions of your brand.

Response metrics per prompt

Each prompt in the Tracked Prompts table shows:
ColumnMeaning
Total responsesHow many AI responses have been tested
Brand mentionsHow many responses mention your brand
Brand Visibility %Mentions / total responses
CitationsHow many responses cite your website
Branded Response Rate (BRR)% of responses that mention any brand
BRR tells you how “brand-focused” a topic is. A high BRR means brands are commonly mentioned for this query — making it competitive but valuable to win.

Why numbers may fluctuate early on

When you first create a brand, numbers may change rapidly — especially in the first hour as initial responses come in. This is normal:
  • Small sample sizes make percentages volatile
  • Each new response has a larger relative impact
  • Data stabilizes after 24–48 hours as more responses are collected
Give your brand at least 48 hours of data collection before drawing conclusions.
