Every brand in this leaderboard is scored against the same set of 299 shared Premium Denim Brands prompts. The same prompts, same model, same iterations. So differences in scores reflect actual differences in AI visibility, not differences in measurement.
(LBA × Authority × TOM)^(1/3). Geometric mean is used so that any single weak metric pulls the overall score down, rather than being masked by strength elsewhere.
quality × meta × stability × share × recognition × 100. Read the full LBA methodology →
