The Stockholm AI Visibility Index — 25 Brands Ranked by AI Search Presence

BrandCited scanned 25 Stockholm tech brands across 9 AI search engines. 20% scored below 40 — the threshold below which AI platforms will not cite a brand regardless of traffic, funding, or market position. The average score was 46/100. Funnel led the index at 67/100.

AI visibility is not an extension of SEO. A brand can rank on page one of Google and score zero on BrandCited because AI platforms weight structured entity signals, crawler permissions, and content trust differently from keyword-based ranking algorithms.

What did the Stockholm AI Visibility Index reveal?#

BrandCited found that 20% of Stockholm brands fall below the 40-point citation threshold — meaning AI platforms treat these brands as invisible sources, even on direct brand queries. The pattern is consistent: brands that skip structured data and entity clarity score below 40. Brands that invest in these foundations score above 70.

• Average score: 46/100 — below the 70-point threshold for consistent AI citation
• 20% of brands scored below 40 — placing them in the effectively invisible tier
• 100% scored below 70 — missing citations on the majority of relevant AI queries
• Top score: 67/100 — Funnel showed strong crawler access signals across all tested engines
• Lowest score: 16/100 — Neko Health scored in the effectively invisible tier, with Product/Service Schema missing (0/8) flagged as the primary blocker

The average of 46/100 places Stockholm below the global average of 54/100 tracked by BrandCited across all indexed cities. See how BrandCited tracks AI visibility across all cities.

1. 1Funnel (67/100), 2. Lassie (58/100), 3. Oneflow (56/100) lead the Stockholm index. BrandCited found these brands have invested in structured data and entity signals that AI platforms rely on for citation decisions.

Traditional SEO tools track keyword rankings and backlinks on Google. BrandCited tracks whether AI platforms cite your brand in generated responses. A brand can rank first on Google and score below 30 on BrandCited because AI engines weight structured data, entity clarity, and source trust differently from crawl-based ranking algorithms.

BrandCited identifies your specific gaps and ranks them by impact. The most common starting points are adding Organization schema to your homepage, creating FAQ schema on key landing pages, and building author entity signals into your content. BrandCited shows you exactly which fixes will move your score the most. Run a free scan to see your current gaps.

Brand recognition does not equal AI citation. AI platforms cite sources they can parse, verify, and trust — not sources they have heard of. BrandCited data shows that structured data quality and entity clarity are stronger predictors of AI citation than traffic, funding, or years in market.
