Each brand in the UK AI Visibility Index is scored by GenSight's 35-signal deterministic scoring engine covering training-corpus presence, retrievability, source authority and competitive position. Brands are selected by Tranco rank within category, with cultural-perception classification verifying each brand reads as British, and editorial review for borderline cases. Composition is reshuffled annually; scores refresh quarterly.
