Covered vs named: 2026-09

Answer. Of the 5 tracked brands with confirmed press coverage in our 5-outlet monitored set this window, Slack led press attention (3 of 5 outlets) while being named in 25 of 48 prompt-engine cells of our index measured 2026-09-07. 0 brands were covered by the press yet named in zero cells. Every number below carries its denominator; the raw evidence for this issue is frozen at evidence.json.

Covered vs named

Brands with at least one confirmed story in the monitored set, sorted by press attention — not by score. Cells = prompts on which an engine named the brand, summed over 3 engines; 95% Wilson interval on that count. No brand-vs-brand verdicts: overlapping intervals are ties.
Brand	Outlets	Stories	Named, cells	95% CI	Rank
Slack	3 of 5	8	25 of 48	38.3-65.5%	#1
Salesforce	3 of 5	3	17 of 48	23.4-49.6%	#2
Linear	1 of 5	2	6 of 48	5.9-24.7%	#12
GitHub Copilot	1 of 5	2	8 of 48	8.7-29.6%	#6
Miro	1 of 5	1	6 of 48	5.9-24.7%	#11

The two gaps

Covered but named nowhere: none.

Named by engines, no story in our monitored set: Airtable, Amplitude, Asana, ClickUp, Copy.ai, Figma, HubSpot, Intercom, Jasper, Monday.com — the wording matters: «no story in our monitored set», never «released nothing».

AI crawlers on our own origin — the block that exists nowhere else

Daily IP-verified journal, 2026-09. Live sessions are counted only when the request matched the vendor's published IP ranges (Applebot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, Perplexity-User, PerplexityBot); requests with no feed to check against are reported separately, never as confirmed. GA4-class analytics cannot see any of this: AI crawlers execute no JavaScript.

What we could not measure, and how to re-check

9 brand-story rows were dropped by the homonym guard (a story counts only if its host is the brand's domain or the brand appears in the title) — short names like «linear» or «ledger» match ordinary words otherwise.
Press attention counts describe our monitored set of 5 outlets over a 30-day story window (762 stories), not the whole press.
No causal claims: an event and a panel measurement appearing in one issue does not mean one caused the other.
Re-check: evidence.json holds every number printed here; the index side is /api/history.json and /archive/, the crawler side is the daily journal this table sums.
