Topic score (Found)
How GetIntel scores each buyer topic on its own, what Found means, when a topic counts as found, and why some topics show Collecting data or Needs more prompts.
A topic’s score, shown as Found, is how often AI names you unprompted on that topic’s buyer questions, over a rolling 7 days.
How it’s calculated
Section titled “How it’s calculated”Found is visibility limited to one topic: for each of the topic’s buyer questions, the share of answers in the last 7 days that named you, averaged across the questions.
When a topic counts as “found”
Section titled “When a topic counts as “found””Found is judged against your rivals, not a fixed bar. You count as found on a topic when AI names you at least 75% as often as your most-named competitor there. If no tracked competitor is named on the topic, the bar is 25%. A score of zero never counts as found.
Worked example. On “pricing”, AI names Acme in 40% of answers and you in 32%. 32% is 80% of 40%, so you count as found. If you were at 28%, that is 70% of Acme’s rate: not found.
