Share Of Voice

Measures the proportion of mentions of your brand compared to mentions of your brand and competitors in AI responses, expressed as a percentage. It indicates your brand’s market presence relative to competitors.

Formula

SOV = (Responses Mentioning Your Brand / (Total Responses Mentioning Your Brand + Total Responses Mentioning Your Competitors)) × 100

Example:

Given the query

Best digital marketing agencies 2025

if Acme Limited is mentioned in 70 AI responses and competitors (Competitor A, Competitor B, etc.) are mentioned in 80 responses combined, SOV = (70 / (70 + 80)) × 100 ≈ 46.7%.

Notes

  • SOV shall track only for queries not containing your brand’s name (e.g., not "Acme Limited reviews") to measure organic competitive mentions.
  • if your brand is mentioned more than once in a responses, the mention will only count as 1 per response.
