## Methodology

Answer-engine citation monitoring across Perplexity, ChatGPT Browse, Gemini grounding, Claude Web, and Google AI Mode. The Machine Relations Index includes every cited root domain from the observed B2B buyer-query set, classifies each source by deterministic source-role rules, keeps unmatched long-tail domains in Other observed source instead of overclaiming source function, and excludes raw cited URLs, evidence paths, provider payloads, placement availability, account metadata, and internal opportunity metadata from the public artifact.
