AI Visibility Score: A Guide to Measuring AIV for Fashion, Lifestyle and Beauty (FLB) Brands
AI is Your Brand’s New Storyteller: Here’s How to Measure It
For years, brand discovery ran through search results and social feeds. Today, AI has become part of that journey, answering the questions consumers once asked search engines about what to buy, which Fashion, Lifestyle and Beauty (FLB) brands to trust and who leads in a category.
Behind those answers is the credible third-party coverage PR teams have spent decades building. What has been missing is a way to measure how that coverage fuels AI-generated answers and how it’s presented to consumers. The AI Visibility Score (AIV) fills that gap by tracking how brands appear within AI-generated answers, the context they surface in and how they compare with the competitors named alongside them.
For marketing and PR leaders, this raises new questions about what their strategy builds and how far it travels. This guide shows why AIV matters now, how it works alongside Media Impact Value® (MIV®) and what it reveals about how brand visibility carries into the AI-generated answers shaping discovery.

Get a clear view of the four signals behind AIV and how it adds a new layer to brand performance alongside MIV.
Brand Discovery Has Changed Once Again
As discovery shifted from search to social, marketing and PR teams needed a consistent way to measure brand visibility. Media Impact Value® (MIV®) became that standard for Fashion, Lifestyle and Beauty (FLB) brands across Voices, channels and markets. Now, AI is reshaping discovery again, creating a new measurement challenge: understanding whether that visibility carries into AI-generated answers and how brands are represented when it does.
“We’re bringing a new intelligence layer in to connect the dots between MIV and how earned media is influencing LLMs.”
Alison Bringé, Chief Marketing Officer, Launchmetrics, as featured in Vogue Business.
Earned Media Is Shaping What AI Says
AI-generated answers are shaped by the credible third-party coverage brands generate. This raises the strategic value of earned media, bringing marketing and PR back to the forefront of brand strategy. As AI becomes a bigger part of discovery, brands need to know whether their intended messaging and values are being carried into the answers consumers see.
What Goes Into an AI Visibility Score
Appearing in an AI answer is only part of the picture. What matters is how widely, prominently and favorably a brand is presented, and whether that representation reflects the visibility, messaging and values teams are building. That is where the AI Visibility Score comes in, combining four key signals into one score from 0 to 100. Inside the guide, you’ll see how AIV unlocks a new layer of brand performance and works with MIV to reveal whether the visibility your brand earns is carrying the right messages into AI.
