# Momentum and Visibility Trend

> Understand whether your AI visibility is improving, declining, or staying steady.

**Momentum** summarises the recent direction of your overall AI visibility.

* Positive momentum means recent visibility is stronger than the earlier comparison period.
* Negative momentum means it is weaker.
* Little movement means performance is broadly steady.

**Visibility Trend** plots that change over time. Use the chart to see whether a movement is sustained or a short-term fluctuation.

## Why it matters for AEO

AEO improvements often take time to appear across AI answers. Momentum helps you see direction before a single headline score tells the whole story.

<Note>
  Prompt changes, model availability, and short date ranges can create temporary movement. Compare consistent periods before drawing conclusions.
