What is KVI?

How visible is your business in the age of AI?

AI search traffic is up 970% this year — yet most brands are invisible. The Kommunal Visibility Index™ (KVI™) shows where you stand, before it’s too late.

The Kommunal Visibility Index™ is a management-ready diagnostic and strategic roadmap that reveals how discoverable your business is today and shows you how to strengthen visibility tomorrow.

Why it Matters

Search is no longer about ten blue links!

AI platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, and Perplexity are rewriting the rules of visibility.

  • 65% of searches now end without a website click.
  • Brand mentions are now 3x more correlated with AI visibility than backlinks (GEO Study, Sept 2025).
  • 82% of AI citations go to deep pages, not homepages.

The KVI ensures your brand is discoverable today and future-ready tomorrow.

The KVI Bridge

The Bridge Between Diagnosis and Strategy

The Kommunal Visibility Index™ (KVI™) is more than a diagnostic. It provides leaders with a clear measure of how discoverable their brand is today — and an actionable roadmap for strengthening visibility tomorrow.

As the bridge between analysis and brand strategy, the KVI ensures that visibility insights translate directly into positioning, messaging, and investment priorities.

It is also the entry point to Kommunal’s broader Communication Ready methodology — turning diagnosis into strategy, and strategy into impact.

The KVI is
designed for:

CEO’s and ELT’s –

Engagement Options

Choose the model that suits your needs

The KVI can be commissioned in three formats, tailored to your scope and objectives:

Project

A one-time diagnostic and strategic roadmap, ideal for establishing a visibility baseline.

Quarterly Subscription

For organisations wanting to track visibility trends and competitive shifts every quarter.

Annual Subscription

All pricing is dependent on final scope — including factors such as the number of competitors or individual profiles analysed.

KVI Monitor™

Your visibility isn’t static – it changes daily.

AI visibility is not a one-time achievement. Competitors move, algorithms evolve, and mentions rise and fall. That’s why we created KVI Monitor™, a subscription service that tracks your visibility over time.

Next Step

The first step is a conversation!

AI visibility gaps are widening every week — the sooner you act, the more discoverable you become.
