  "question": "Why is Grok citing low-quality sources instead of our primary changelog pages?",
  "description": "Discover why Grok prioritizes specific sources over your changelog pages and learn how to use Trakkr to diagnose and improve your AI citation visibility.",
  "summary": "Grok selects sources based on relevance and structured data signals. Trakkr helps you identify why your changelog is bypassed and provides actionable steps to increase your citation frequency in AI answers.",
  "answer": "Grok determines citation sources by evaluating content relevance, recency, and authority signals within its retrieval context. If your changelog pages lack clear, machine-readable formatting, the model may favor third-party summaries that are easier to parse. Trakkr provides the diagnostic tools necessary to track these citation gaps, allowing you to compare your presence against competitors. By auditing your technical accessibility and refining content framing, you can align your changelog with the specific signals Grok prioritizes during its synthesis process. This operational approach ensures your primary documentation becomes the preferred source for AI-generated answers regarding your product updates.",
