AI Legibility refers to how clearly and consistently an institution is interpreted by AI systems as they crawl, index, summarize, and reason about entities across the intelligent web.
Unlike human perception—which relies on reputation, intent, or brand cues—AI legibility is supported by structure: schema coherence, narrative consistency, relational signals, and the availability of verifiable context. These inputs supply material for interpretation; they do not by themselves prove what a model understood. An observed answer is the evidence for what a particular system represented at a particular time.
AI legibility concerns whether an institution is understood, not whether it is trusted. Failures can appear as misclassification, shallow summarization, or inconsistent framing across platforms. Trust, citation, recommendation, influence, and ranking require separate evidence.
AI Legibility is a comprehension concept within the broader Entity Clarity framework. It is broader than the current automated review’s Machine legibility dimension, which is a bounded 20-point structural measure of observable homepage signals rather than a test of model understanding.
The methodology has evolved. The current Entity Clarity Review uses Automated Entity Clarity v2.1, an experimental deterministic assessment of 20 binary signals in delivered static homepage HTML across five dimensions: Identity resolution (25), Entity consistency (25), Relationship clarity (15), Evidence traceability (15), and Machine legibility (20).
The automated structural score does not test model representation and does not establish trust, citation likelihood, recommendation, or ranking. Page delivery, declared AI access, structural assessment, and observed model representation are distinct layers. Failed collection is unscored, not zero. The current method does not add score bands.
Legacy EEI v2.1 and historical ECI/ECC reports are distinct method families despite overlapping version labels. Their original methods, dates, and findings remain historical records and are not numerically converted into the current automated review. See the current methodology and history and the historical Entity Clarity reports.
The linked industry reports preserve the methods, dates, and findings under which they were published. They are not direct outputs of the current Automated Entity Clarity v2.1 review.
