Citation history

Cited runs month by month

decidingfactor.us was first cited in a monitored answer run on October 4, 2026, and most recently on October 19, 2026, with cited runs in 1 of the 2 months from then to this release. The release window opens 2026-05-10, so an earlier citation would not show here.

A month's rate is the share of all monitored answer runs that month that cited this domain. The latest month is still collecting.

Month	Cited runs	Observed runs	Rate
October 2026	2	16,496	0.01%
November 2026 (to November 5, 2026)	0	1,706	0.00%

By answer engine

Which engines cite decidingfactor.us

An engine's rate is its cited runs over every monitored run that engine answered in the window. Engines answer different numbers of runs, so compare rates, not counts.

Engine	Cited runs	Engine’s observed runs	Rate
Google AI Overviews	2	1,297	0.15%
ChatGPT	0	8,545	0.00%
Claude	0	8,583	0.00%
Gemini	0	6,987	0.00%
Google AI Mode	0	2,114	0.00%
Perplexity	0	8,663	0.00%

Since August 31, 2026, decidingfactor.us is cited in none of 908 observed Google AI Mode runs. Google AI Mode's collection changed between August 10, 2026 and August 30, 2026, so its row above pools both sides of the change.

The public dataset reports citation rates, rankings, and evidence counts. It excludes internal query identifiers, raw cited URLs, and answer-engine provider payloads. MRI measures observed root-domain citations in monitored prompts, not all AI answers, recommendation quality, web traffic or commercial performance. A citation is not source support.
