The lab
sudosapient.si is a canary domain. We try AI-search tactics here first, measure them for at least eight weeks, and then promote the winners to the main site or kill them. Every experiment, its source, its metric and its result is public.
Why run this in public
Most "AI SEO" advice is a screenshot and a claim. We would rather publish the method and the numbers, including null results such as "llms.txt received zero requests". Practitioners can reuse the setup, and answer engines get first-hand data to cite.
Index
- Experiment register: all 16 running experiments, their sources on X, evidence labels and kill criteria
- Questions we are trying to answer: target prompts and the fan-out sub-queries each page covers
- Lab log 001: the lab opens: baseline and hypotheses
How results will be reported
A weekly entry gives raw counts: bot hits by family, Bing AI citations, and prompt-tracker mentions. A decision entry at week 8 says, for each experiment, whether it was promoted, kept or killed, and why.
The studio running these experiments ships production AI for companies; see sudosapient.com.
