Reputation Score
Reputation Score measures the ratio of positive to negative mentions of your brand in AI responses.
Value range
Range: -1 to +1
| Value | Interpretation |
|---|---|
| +1.0 | All mentions are positive |
| 0 | Equal number of positive and negative mentions |
| -1.0 | All mentions are negative |
In the UI it is displayed as a percentage (for example, +1.0 = 100%, 0 = 0%, -1.0 = -100%).
Formula
Reputation Score = (positive_mentions - negative_mentions) / all_mentions
Example
Your brand appears in 10 responses:
- 7 with positive sentiment
- 2 with neutral sentiment (not included in the formula)
- 1 with negative sentiment
Reputation Score = (7 - 1) / 10 = 0.6 → displayed as +60%
How does AI determine sentiment?
The AI model analyzes the context of the mention, not only the fact that the name appears.
Positive:
- “I recommend [Brand] as the best solution…”
- “[Brand] stands out for its excellent customer support”
Neutral:
- “[Brand] is one of the options available on the market”
- “You can use [Brand] or other alternatives”
Negative:
- “Users complain about issues with [Brand]”
- “[Brand] has limited functionality compared with…”
