Cohere Health’s AEO Dashboard for May 2026
Welcome, Cohere Health. This is your May 2026 report on how visible your brand is to AI search engines: ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Copilot, Perplexity, Claude, and Grok. Below is a month-over-month look at your performance, how you compare to the four other companies in your cohort, and what changed across the AI search landscape this month. The five tiles below and the links throughout take you deeper.
Your AI SuperScore and the 10 Categories That Build It
Your SuperScore sits at the center, surrounded by the ten categories that feed it. Each category shows this month’s score plus how much impact and effort improving it carries. Click any category to open its full breakdown and recommendations.
Impact reflects how much headroom a category has to lift your SuperScore; effort reflects the typical work involved. Higher scores are always better.
Your Biggest Win and Biggest Risk
The two categories that matter most this month: where you are furthest ahead of the cohort and should protect that lead, and where the largest gap to the cohort leader is open and worth closing first.
What’s New in AI Search This Month
These are the most recent developments across the six major AI search engines that decide who to surface and cite. Engine-level changes can shift which sources get cited even when your own signals stay flat.

Your May 2026 Performance
Two quick reads on your month: how your category strengths and weaknesses compare to the cohort, and where your overall score ranks against the other companies.
Your Strengths and Weaknesses at a Glance
Your 10 category scores layered over the cohort average and over the cohort leader. Where your solid shape extends past the dashed line you lead the cohort; where the red line sits outside yours, the leader is ahead in that area.
How You Compare to the Cohort
Three views of how your May scores stack up against the four other companies in your cohort: the full cohort grid, your win and loss record, and where you sit in each category’s field.
How Every Company Performs in Each Area
This is a bird’s-eye view of all 5 companies across all 10 AEO categories for May 2026. Darker cells mean stronger scores. Your row sits at the top so your position is the first thing you see. Hover any cell for the exact score.
Your Win and Loss Record Against the Cohort
Across all your scored metrics this month, this is how often your score beats, matches, or trails the cohort average. It is the simplest read on how many individual battles you are winning.
Where You Sit in Each Category’s Field
For every category, your score (blue dot) is placed on the 0–100 field against the full cohort range, the cohort average, and the cohort leader. The closer your dot is to the right, and the further it sits past the average mark, the stronger your position.
Turning Scores Into Priorities
Three views that translate your scores into a plan: which actions give the most return for the least effort, where the gap to the leader is widest, and how much overall score you can still recover.
Impact vs Effort: What to Do First
Each dot is one of this month’s 30 recommended actions, placed by how much it can move your score (higher is better) against how much effort it takes (further left is easier). The actions in the upper-left corner are your quick wins. Color shows the resource area: Coder, Content, or Coordinator.
How Far Behind the Leader You Are, by Category
For each category, this is the number of points between your score and the cohort leader’s, sorted widest gap first. The longer the bar, the more ground there is to make up.
How Much Score You Can Still Recover
Starting from your current SuperScore, this shows the projected lift from closing your top opportunities one by one, building toward where you could be if all of them were addressed.
May 2026 Recommended Actions
Each month we publish a fresh set of 30 recommended actions to improve discovery of your brand, grouped by the resource type best suited to deliver each one. Here is how this month’s plan breaks down. Open the SuperScore to read every action with its reason and supporting metric, or download the full list as a CSV.

There are five places to go deeper from here. The first three tiles break down the scores and metrics that build your AEO performance. The last two cover the signals around your brand and the AI platforms that read them.
