Sample match report
Which questions show a Searchable ad in an AI chat?
In Prism's own test on October 6, 2026, 1 of 10 visitor questions cleared the 0.65 match floor and showed the Searchable ad as an Affiliate ad card. The other 9 did not, so a card might not surface for them. These are Prism's own scores and say nothing about how any other platform behaves.
How did Prism score each question?
Prism turns the visitor's question into a bag of words and compares it with the words in the ad's headline, description and keywords. The result is a cosine score between 0 and 1. A card shows only when the score reaches 0.65. The ad's topic label is not part of the score.
The same code runs in the live chat and in this test, and the ten questions are a fixed set kept in one file. A message that touches a sensitive subject gets no card at all, whatever it scores. This table scores the ad on its own against Prism's affiliate library. In the live chat, an approved paid ad that clears the floor is shown ahead of any affiliate ad.
What did each of the 10 questions score?
| # | Visitor question | Shown | Score | Floor |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | How do I check if my brand shows up in ChatGPT? | No | 0.638 | 0.65 |
| 2 | Is my company mentioned in AI search answers? | No | 0.329 | 0.65 |
| 3 | What tool tracks brand mentions across ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity? | No | 0.504 | 0.65 |
| 4 | How can I see where my website appears in AI answers? | No | 0.089 | 0.65 |
| 5 | Does my business show up when people ask Perplexity for recommendations? | No | 0.232 | 0.65 |
| 6 | Why isn't my brand showing in AI search results? | Yes | 0.672 | 0.65 |
| 7 | What is the best way to monitor my brand in AI search? | No | 0.490 | 0.65 |
| 8 | How do I get more backlinks for my blog? | No | 0.000 | 0.65 |
| 9 | What are the best running shoes for flat feet? | No | 0.000 | 0.65 |
| 10 | How do I set up a home gym on a budget? | No | 0.000 | 0.65 |
1 of 10 questions showed a card. Questions that are unrelated to the ad score near zero, which is the intended result.
Which questions came closest to missing?
The narrowest pass was "Why isn't my brand showing in AI search results?" at 0.672. Questions that missed by the smallest margins might not surface a card, even though a person would see them as related to the ad:
- "How do I check if my brand shows up in ChatGPT?" scored 0.638, 0.011 below the floor.
- "What tool tracks brand mentions across ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity?" scored 0.504, 0.145 below the floor.
- "What is the best way to monitor my brand in AI search?" scored 0.490, 0.159 below the floor.
A question scores higher when its words overlap the ad's own wording. Different words for the same idea score lower in Prism's engine, and that is a property of word-overlap scoring, not a verdict on the product.
