  "question": "Can Microsoft Copilot use changelog pages as a citation source?",
  "description": "Learn how Microsoft Copilot processes changelog pages for citations. Discover how to monitor your AI visibility and optimize content for better source attribution.",
  "summary": "Microsoft Copilot can cite changelog pages if they are indexed by Bing. Brands must actively monitor citation performance to ensure their product updates are correctly attributed by the model during user queries.",
  "answer": "Microsoft Copilot functions by retrieving information from indexed web sources, meaning your changelog pages must be discoverable by Bing to be considered for citations. The model evaluates the structure, relevance, and frequency of updates on these pages to determine their authority. Because AI retrieval is dynamic, you cannot assume visibility without verification. Using platforms like Trakkr allows teams to track specific cited URLs and monitor citation rates for Microsoft Copilot. By identifying gaps in your current citation performance, you can refine your content formatting to increase the likelihood that the model references your official product release documentation.",
