Executive summary

Acme PM shows a classic visibility paradox: strong on branded queries (people who already know the name), but largely absent on unbranded, high-purchase-intent searches where prospects are actively evaluating tools. The score lags every named competitor by 22+ points. The fastest unlocks are in pain-point and use-case queries, where none of the major AI engines currently surface Acme PM organically.

Heavy concentration in Google AI Overview suggests strong traditional SEO authority that's being re-used by AI — but the relative weakness on ChatGPT and Claude points to a gap in the source content those models prefer (long-form forum discussions, structured comparison pages, and Wikipedia-style entity references).
