Average recommendation position
The situation
Northstar HR appeared as a source in AI answers about HR software, yet was rarely named when buyers asked which platform to choose. Being cited was being mistaken for being chosen.
What we did
- Mapped 20 buying questions across awareness, comparison and decision stages.
- Tracked every question weekly across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity, with extended depth to 50 recommendations.
- Identified the comparison pages, directories and review sites shaping each answer.
- Prioritised the sources with the strongest influence and the weakest coverage of the brand.
