Entity Identity
Entity Recognition
Entity Recognition is the ability of ai systems to identify your brand as a distinct, known entity in knowledge bases.
Detailed Explanation
Entity recognition is crucial for AI visibility because AI platforms need to know who you are before they can confidently recommend you. Entity recognition is built through presence in Wikipedia, Wikidata, Google Knowledge Graph, and consistent mentions across platforms. Research shows brand search volume (which reflects entity recognition) has the strongest correlation (0.334) with AI mentions — stronger than backlinks or domain authority.
