# Competitors

> Add, manage, and benchmark competitors across AI platforms. Compare visibility, position, and mentions to understand your competitive landscape in generative search.

The **Competitors** section lets you benchmark your brand against others that appear in AI-generated answers.

Nobori.ai identifies which brands are mentioned alongside yours across AI platforms — and tracks their relative visibility and ranking over time.

***

## Overview

The page is divided into two main tabs:

* **Active** — competitors currently tracked in your workspace
* **Suggested** — AI-identified brands frequently mentioned alongside yours

You can manually add competitors or activate them from suggestions.

***

## Active Competitors

Active competitors are included in your visibility benchmarking.

For each competitor, you’ll see:

| Column         | Meaning                                            |
| -------------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| **Position**   | Average ranking position in AI answers             |
| **Visibility** | % of prompts where the competitor appears          |
| **Sentiment**  | (Coming soon) Tone of mentions across AI responses |

### Position

Position reflects how prominently a competitor appears in AI answers.

Lower numbers mean stronger presence:

* `#1.3` → Frequently appears near the top
* `#2.9` → Appears lower in responses

This helps you understand not just *who appears*, but *who dominates*.

### Visibility

Visibility is the percentage of tracked prompts where the competitor is mentioned.

Example:

* `92%` → Appears in 92% of tracked prompts
* `63%` → Appears in 63% of tracked prompts

Use this to evaluate share of AI exposure across your tracked queries.

***

## Adding Competitors

You can add competitors in two ways:

### 1. Manual Add

Click **Add Competitor** and enter:

* **Name** — brand name as it appears in AI answers
* **Website** — main domain (used for citation detection)

Manual addition is useful for:

* Known direct competitors
* Emerging brands not yet detected by AI
* Strategic benchmarking targets

***

### 2. Suggested Competitors

The **Suggested** tab lists brands frequently mentioned alongside yours.

For each suggested competitor, you’ll see:

* **Mentions** — number of times they appeared across tracked prompts
* **Action** — Activate or Reject

Activate to begin tracking them in the Active tab.

Reject if irrelevant.

This list updates dynamically based on AI response analysis.

***

## Bulk Actions

You can select multiple competitors and:

* **Activate**
* **Reject**
* **Delete** (for Active competitors)

This helps maintain a clean, relevant competitive set.

***

## Why This Matters

AI models don’t show ten blue links — they synthesize and select.

Understanding who appears alongside your brand reveals:

* Which competitors dominate AI answers
* Where you are losing visibility
* Which brands AI systems consistently prefer

Tracking competitors is foundational to improving your AI visibility strategy.
