Live TV & Hybrid Streamers
Services combining live television channels with on-demand libraries and cloud DVR features aimed at cord-cutters seeking linear and on-demand viewing.
YouTube TV is the default answer in AI responses for Live TV & Hybrid Streamers
When users ask ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini about Live TV & Hybrid Streamers, YouTube TV is the brand that surfaces first - unprompted, consistently, and usually at the top of any list the model generates. Hulu is a close second, but the gap between them is meaningful. If you're competing in this space and you're not in the top handful, you're effectively invisible to AI-driven discovery.

How is this calculated? Methodology
Every brand in this leaderboard is scored against the same set of 277 shared Live TV & Hybrid Streamers prompts. The same prompts, same model, same iterations. So differences in scores reflect actual differences in AI visibility, not differences in measurement.
Overall AI Visibility Score
composite = ((LBA + 5)(Authority + 5)(TOM + 5))^(1/3) - 5. The floor keeps brands the model clearly recognises but doesn't yet recommend from collapsing to zero, while a single genuinely weak metric still pulls the composite down. Full methodology.
Shared industry prompts
Latent Brand Association (LBA)
quality × meta × stability × share × recognition × 100. Read the full LBA methodology →
