Methodology: every AI agent fetch of the Contra review is logged by our servers and classified by its user-agent string. We distinguish live retrieval (a real user asked an AI chatbot a question, the chatbot fetched this page to answer it) from training/index (scheduled AI crawling for model updates). We publish a fresh AI Visibility report every Monday at 02:00 UTC, covering the most recent complete Mon–Sun week.
