  #### Why the Report Changed

  AI search is maturing fast — and so is what teams need from their data. The redesign is built around three things the market was asking for: clearer answers to specific strategic questions, analysis that reflects your actual audience rather than the entire market, and a faster path from insight to action.

  Same data you trusted. Smarter structure. More horsepower.

  The report is organized around five tabs: Overview, Competitive Landscape, Your Performance, Topics, and Prompts. The first three are where the biggest changes live.

  📊 Overview: What's my headline performance right now, and what should I do next?

  🏆 Competitive Landscape: How do I stack up — and who's winning the topics I care about?

  📈 Your Performance: Why are my numbers where they are, and where are my gaps?

  Global Filters

  Intent and Persona are now global filters — set them once at the top of the report and they apply across every view simultaneously. No more re-applying them per widget. It's a small change that adds a lot of flexibility when you want to slice your entire analysis through the lens of a specific audience or intent stage.

  #### What's Been Retired

  Brand Mentions / Website Citations Over Time (by topic) have been replaced by the Competitive Landscape by Topic view and Topic Coverage analysis in Your Performance — more actionable visualizations that answer the same underlying question with more context.

  Seven things to find and try to get your bearings.

  ✅ 1. Find your three views. Navigate Overview, Competitive Landscape, and Your Performance. For each, ask: "What question is this designed to answer?"

  ✅ 2. Read your headline KPIs — then toggle PoP mode. On the Overview, scan your Summary Cards (default: trend lines). Then switch on Period-over-Period mode and see how the same data looks as a direct period comparison with Winners & Losers. Decide which your stakeholders would prefer.

  ✅ 3. Open the Recommendations panel (in Alpha). Find the Recommendations button on the Overview tab. Expand a card and read the AI Summary and What's Going Well / What Needs Work breakdown. Select a prompt, choose a page to optimize, and launch into Writing Assistant.

  ✅ 4. Apply a Global Filter and feel the difference. Set a Persona or Intent filter at the top of the report. Watch everything update at once — then note how differently your brand performs for that specific audience vs. your overall numbers.

  ✅ 5. Find a topic your competitor is winning. Go to Competitive Landscape → Competitive Landscape by Topic and identify at least one topic where a competitor is the current winner. That's your first strategic target.

  ✅ 6. Find a content gap in the Heatmap. In Your Performance, open the Persona & Intent Heatmap. Spot a cell with low or zero coverage for an audience-intent combo that matters to your business. That blank cell is a content opportunity.

  ✅ 7. Locate your most-used widgets. Use the relocation table above to find where your go-to data points now live.
