Source: the sources_cited list in each public Perplexity answer file for the same days as the table above. Links only; no answer text. Ties at the last place are all shown.

How to read it: each row is one business; the columns count the days Perplexity named it and the days it cited the business's own site. Across the 190 businesses in the record (counted per market; 181 distinct sites), Perplexity named a business on 33.6% of days it cited that business's own site and 2.0% of days it did not (Wilson 95% intervals 30.4 to 37.0 and 1.6 to 2.6); within the same business the gap is 15.6 points (35 businesses higher, 3 lower).

Definitions: "named" here means the business's web address or exact name is written in the answer text. The Oct 29 public count also counts a cited address as named; under that count every day its own site was cited counts as named.

Names are shown as extracted from each answer. Some entries are headings or terms, not businesses. That is a known issue in the Edition 1 files and it is logged on the corrections page. A count is not a ranking.

Who entered and who dropped

Each run day is compared with the previous run day, using the engines that answered OK on both days. One engine skipping a day cannot show up as a drop. The full list is in changes.csv.
