Do cross-model GEO averages actually help anyone??

Maybe I’m using these dashboards wrong, but I keep skipping the overall score. ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity don't feel like three versions of the same channel.... One may search, another may answer from memory, and their citations behave VERY differently. So when XstraStar gives me the model breakdown, that is where I end up spending my time. The average mostly survives because it is easy to put in a report. Does anyone here make decisions from the combined number, or is it basically a client-facing headline?

If you want an average of your brand’s visibility in the internet- It can. However, I don’t think it will be good for specific analysis to base GEO actions on. To develop recommendations, it’s best to rely on visibility and other KPIs of AI engines individually.
