How AI Visibility breaks down
in Security
Composite = 50% coverage + 30% engine breadth + 20% position, measured in the brand's strongest category. Position and citation depth join the score once the aggregation pipeline captures them. This is the measured Visibility score — separate from AEO Readiness, which scores fundamentals.
Cited rate · share of voice · engine consensus · sentiment, broken out by buyer-journey stage. Sentiment is the net positive−negative skew across engines that cited the brand at this stage.
Barracuda is strongly positioned for AI citation in evaluation-stage queries because it has substantial G2 presence and appears on Gartner Peer Insights. The biggest risk pattern is conversion-stage “pricing” and evaluation-stage “Barracuda vs competitor” queries where AI needs crawlable, structured pricing and first-party comparison pages; the highest-ROI fix is to ensure pricing is fully crawlable/SSR with explicit tiers and to expand first-party “[Barracuda] vs [competitor]” pages that are not competitor-led.
