  "question": "Why is Apple Intelligence citing low-quality sources instead of our primary blog posts?",
  "description": "Discover why Apple Intelligence prioritizes specific sources over your blog posts and learn how to audit your brand visibility to improve AI citation accuracy.",
  "summary": "Apple Intelligence prioritizes content based on machine-readability and relevance. Trakkr helps you diagnose citation gaps, monitor crawler accessibility, and refine your content strategy to ensure your primary blog posts are correctly attributed in AI-generated answers.",
  "answer": "Apple Intelligence selects sources based on a combination of training data, real-time retrieval, and technical accessibility. If your primary blog posts are not being cited, it is often due to poor machine-readability, lack of clear metadata, or structural issues that prevent the model from identifying your content as the authoritative source. To resolve this, you must audit your site's technical footprint and monitor how your brand appears across AI platforms. Trakkr provides the necessary tools to track cited URLs, compare your visibility against competitors, and identify the specific technical barriers that limit your content's reach within AI answer engines.",
