AI Share of Voice tells you if you appear. Topical Presence tells you what for.

Superlines tracks how strongly AI models connect your brand to the commercial topics buyers ask about — across every major AI engine, with real query data.

SOV without topic context is an incomplete signal

AI models don't rank pages — they build associations between brands and topics during training. Two brands can have identical Share of Voice for completely different reasons.

Brand A 12% SOV
CRM software
Sales automation
Pipeline management

Concentrated in 3 topics. Invisible on everything else — integrations, onboarding, pricing, security.

Topical Presence: 31
Brand B 12% SOV

Associated across 14 topics. Shows up wherever buyers are asking, not just the core three.

Topical Presence: 78

Without knowing what you appear for, you can't direct effort at the right gaps. SOV tells you the score; Topical Presence tells you the game.


Three dimensions. One composite score.

Topical Presence is a composite metric that captures not just how often you appear, but how meaningfully and how broadly your brand is associated with the commercial topics in your market.

01

Depth

Weighted topic strength

How strongly AI models connect you to key topics, weighted by each topic's commercial importance. High depth means you dominate the conversations that drive purchase decisions.

Tells you if you own the topics that matter most — not just the long tail.

02

Breadth

Topic coverage ratio

How many of the core commercial topics in your market you're associated with across AI engines. Breadth determines whether you appear across the full range of buyer queries.

Low breadth means competitors are answering questions you're invisible for.

03

Concentration Risk

HHI-based distribution score

How unevenly your visibility is distributed across topics, calculated using the Herfindahl–Hirschman Index. High concentration means one model update could wipe out your presence.

Fragility indicator — a single algorithm shift shouldn't be able to erase you.

Composite formula

TP = (0.45 × Depth + 0.40 × Breadth − 0.15 × Concentration) × 100

Depth carries the most weight because topic strength in high-intent queries has the most direct effect on buying decisions. Concentration is subtracted — fragility is a liability, not a neutral state.

Superlines AI Competitive Map showing brands plotted on Topical Presence vs Share of Voice matrix with Leader, Hidden Expert, Hollow Presence, and Marginal quadrant labels

Leaders

High SOV + High TP — the benchmark to beat

Hidden Experts

Low SOV + High TP — broad topics, low raw volume

Hollow Presence

High SOV + Low TP — frequent but narrow

Marginal

Low SOV + Low TP — limited AI presence overall


What your score means

TP scores run 0–100. The ranges below reflect observed distributions across the markets Superlines currently tracks.

Tier Score Signal
Category leader ≥ 75 Broad, consistent AI presence — own the territory
Mid-tier 45–74 Visible but patchy — identify and fill gaps
Niche / emerging 20–44 Narrow signal — build breadth urgently
Minimal presence < 20 Largely absent — start from scratch

A gap in your score has three possible causes

Superlines identifies which topics have gaps. Diagnosing the root cause determines the right response — content alone isn't always the answer.

01

Product gap

You don't cover the capability. Content won't fix this — it requires a product or positioning decision first.

02

Documentation gap

You have the product, but AI engines can't associate it with you. The solution is systematic, structured content that builds the association.

03

Content depth gap

It's documented, but coverage is too thin for the AI to build a confident association. The signal exists; it just needs amplification.

The goal isn't to manufacture AI mentions — it's to ensure AI models accurately reflect genuine expertise. Associations built on substance hold through model updates; those built on thin signal don't.
