The Competitors page tracks the brands AI engines mention alongside yours. The stats bar at the top gives you the headline of the whole competitive picture in five numbers.

Tip
Your rank and Category leader together frame your goal: they tell you where you sit in the pack and who’s at the top. Closing the gap to the leader is the game.

Where to find it

It’s the row of stats under the Competitors page title, which explains the page: “Track the brands AI engines mention alongside [your domain]. We detect new competitors automatically — add the ones you care about to see them in your charts.”

What each stat means

  • Tracked — how many competitors you’ve actively added to your charts.
  • Detected — how many brands AmICited has auto-detected being cited alongside you (candidates to track).
  • Your rank — your position among all named brands for your category (e.g. #11).
  • Your share — your share of category answers, i.e. how often you’re the brand named.
  • Category leader — the brand that dominates your category’s AI mentions.

How to use it

  1. Read Your rank + Your share as your scoreboard. A low share and a double-digit rank means lots of room to climb.
  2. Mind the Detected count. A high number means AmICited found many brands worth reviewing — check the Detected competitors list and add the real ones.
  3. Know the leader. Whoever holds Category leader is the brand to study and, eventually, to challenge.

The charts and lists below turn these headlines into the detail: who’s ahead, by how much, and which brands to track.
