How AI answer engines name Nextdoor

By engine

Answers each engine gave to buyer questions about Local Services, and how many of them named Nextdoor.

By question type

The same answers, split by the shape of the buyer question.

Question types within each engine

The same home-category sample, separated by engine and question type. Named counts a name match, not an endorsement. Zero means no name match in the stored answers shown; an omitted type has no stored answers, not a zero mention rate. These pooled historical counts are not a controlled engine comparison: prompts, models, collection routes and sampling frequencies can differ. They are not buyer demand or a movement measure.

How this is measured

Names are matched case-sensitively from each brand's own homepage title, in answers stored by the Machine Relations Index. Only derived counts are published here; no answer text is.

A brand appears only once it has been named in at least 10 answers on 7 separate days.

A name match counts a mention. It does not count a recommendation, and it does not measure sentiment.

Categories are the Index's buyer-question categories.

Window-to-window brand movement is unmeasured. The stored counts do not establish unchanged prompts, collection instruments and sampling weights across periods. Historical counts and weekly rows are descriptive, not a matched trend.
