AI Search Preview Report (Public)

Publicly shareable, read-only report showing a company’s AI search performance: brand mentions, share of voice, competitor analysis, model performance, brand traits, citation sources, and raw AI responses: generated from a pitch/audit run.

Open in AthenaHQ

Purpose

The AI Search Preview Report is a publicly shareable, read-only page that provides a comprehensive snapshot of a company’s AI search performance. Generated from an AI audit or “pitch” run, it displays a detailed breakdown of how often a brand is recommended across major AI models, how its visibility compares to competitors, and what specific traits or sources the models associate with it.

This page exists to easily communicate the value of AI generative search optimization to stakeholders, clients, or prospects without requiring them to log into the Athena app. Users simply share the unique URL, allowing anyone to view the interactive insights, charts, and raw AI responses.

What’s on the page

Page Header & Report Header

• Page Header: The sticky top bar displaying the company logo and name, along with action buttons to copy or share the report link.
• Report Header: Displays “AI Search Preview Report”, a “Powered by AthenaHQ” link, and the date the audit was run.

High-Level Metric Cards

• Share of Voice (SOV) Metric Card: A single large-number KPI showing the brand’s share of voice percentage compared to all tracked competitors. Includes a Learn more dialog explaining the formula.

Response Detail Drawer (Drilldown)

A slide-in panel that appears when a user clicks a row in the Responses Table. It contains:

• Response Metadata: The date the response was generated, the AI model used, the prompt type, mention status, the brand’s market position/rank in the response, and which competitors were mentioned.
• Prompts: The base prompt and the exact prompt variation sent to the model.
• Response Text: The full, markdown-rendered AI response text. Brand and competitor mentions are highlighted. Source citations appear as inline pills.
  • Drilldown: Hovering over an inline citation source pill opens a tooltip showing the full source URL, domain favicon, page title, and a list of all source variants.
• Sources: A list of external sources the AI cited.
• AI Overview Specifics: If the response was from an AI Overview, expandable sections for Organic Results, People Also Ask, and Related Searches are visible.

Empty, loading, and error states

• Loading: While the report data initially fetches, the page displays a full-screen animated AthenaHQ temple logo (indigo, pulsing). Individual cards show skeleton placeholders (shimmering rectangles) if portions of their data are still loading.
• Empty: If no responses match a search query, the Responses Table displays “No responses found.” If there is no share of voice data, the SOV and Brand Traits charts show a blurred placeholder with a “No share of voice data available” overlay message.
• Error: If the pitch ID doesn’t exist or data fails to load entirely, the page will render a 404 “Not Found” screen. If loading more responses fails, a red toast notification will appear stating: “Failed to load more responses. No more attempts will be made.”

Linked from / links to

• Linked from: Usually accessed via a direct link shared via email/Slack, generated by clicking the Share/Copy Link buttons in the Pitch Workspace inside the authenticated app.
• Links to:
  • athenahq.ai via the “Powered by” link in the header.
  • Pricing and Demo booking pages via the CTA banner (if applicable).
  • External domains via citation source pills and organic search result links.

Common support questions

Why is the data refreshing while I look at it? If the initial audit is still actively processing in the background, the public report page will automatically refetch data every 30 seconds. You are watching the results roll in live.

Why are the Positive and Negative Brand Traits cards completely missing? If the audit did not detect any attribute data (and is no longer loading), the Brand Traits radar charts are hidden completely to save space, rather than displaying an empty chart.

Why can’t I scroll endlessly through the responses when I search? When you use the search box to filter responses, infinite scrolling is disabled. You must click the “Load More” button at the bottom of the table to fetch the next batch of search results.

What does “No AI Overview was shown for this query” mean? When testing Google AI Overviews, Google decides dynamically whether to generate an AI summary for a prompt or just show standard search results. If you see this message in the drawer, it means the query triggered standard search results but no AI-generated summary text.

What are the inline pills scattered throughout the response text? Those are citation sources. The AI model provided specific URLs to back up its statements. You can hover over a pill to see the domain and page title, or click it to visit the exact page the AI used as a source.
