Reading your first results

Every finished execution has a result page that shows exactly what the AI answered. You find it through the topic page or the queue: click any completed execution to open the result viewer.

The answer

The extracted answer is the text the AI produced for your prompt. This is the ground truth for everything else on the page. An empty answer is a valid result and is shown as such.

Citations

Citations are the sources the AI linked in its answer. Each citation is a link with its position in the answer. If a citation points to your own domain, it carries an Owned badge. Citations are the strongest form of visibility, because AI platforms hand the user directly to the source.

Mentions

Mentions are places where the answer names your brand without linking it. Each mention comes with a sentiment value on a scale from minus one to plus one, so you can see whether the AI speaks positively, neutrally or negatively about you.

Mentions and sentiment require an analysis key: your own OpenRouter key on the Free plan, or the platform-provided analysis on any paid plan. If analysis is missing, the page shows a note instead of the data.

Fan-out queries

AI platforms rarely answer a complex prompt in one step. They internally decompose it into sub-queries. The result page lists these fan-out queries, which tell you which aspects of your market the AI considers relevant.

Cost line

At the bottom you see how much the execution cost: token counts, the provider cost when you used your own key, or a note that the platform execution was included in your plan.

Drift comparison

If this prompt ran before, the result page compares the current answer with the previous one and shows a similarity percentage. Stable answers mean the AI consistently tells the same story about your market; volatile answers mean the ground is shifting and worth watching.
