What we found is the number one way to get cited in like these AI overviews is having facts, stats, and data and unique research. If you start pushing that in to whatever way, you can survey people, you can partner with other companies. Like if you looked at a16z, Andreessen Horowitz, I believe it was on TechCrunch, they had this whole article about AI and they had all these charts. A lot of the data was from SimilarWeb and they put like footnote, chart from SimilarWeb, but it looked like a16z with their brand on there.

And then when you cite a lot of, or when you're creating a lot of stats and putting it out there, I'm telling you, that is what's really getting corporations cited a lot.
