Full Explanation
AI scraping is a methodology where tools automatically query AI models and collect responses to track brand mentions, sentiment, and positioning. While scraping shows what AI said at a moment in time, it has limitations: different phrasings yield different results, AI responses change frequently, and scraping cannot explain WHY a brand was or was not mentioned. When AI platforms launch advertising, scraped visibility metrics become indistinguishable from paid placements.
