  "description": "Discover why Microsoft Copilot prioritizes competitor product pages over yours. Learn how to use Trakkr to diagnose visibility gaps and improve your AI presence.",
  "summary": "Microsoft Copilot selects product pages based on authority, structured data, and direct relevance to user queries. Trakkr helps brands diagnose why they are being ignored by identifying technical barriers and content gaps compared to competitors in AI answer engines.",
  "answer": "Microsoft Copilot prioritizes product pages that offer the most concise, authoritative, and relevant answers to specific user prompts. If your pages are ignored, it is often due to a lack of clear structured data, insufficient content depth, or technical crawler access issues that prevent the AI from indexing your site effectively. By using Trakkr, you can monitor how Copilot cites your brand versus competitors, allowing you to pinpoint whether the visibility gap stems from technical infrastructure or content positioning. This diagnostic approach helps you align your product pages with the specific requirements of AI answer engines, ensuring your content is more likely to be surfaced in future responses.",
