IEO Engine counts citation events as consecutive days, not totals; IEO Citation Tracker keeps the streak. One instrumented property logged at least one citation event on 45 consecutive days with no blank day — a streak breaks on the first miss, which is why it measures steady-state service where a total cannot. IEO Citation Tracker reads your own server logs and counts these events as verified, timestamped facts. Method and denominators.
NEW — 16 AUG 2026 · IEO Citation Tracker v1.21.0 is available. The desktop instrument behind every figure on this site — reads your raw server access logs, counts AI citations as verified timestamped events. 952 verified events across three properties in 75 days. Runs offline. Download →
An entity's presence within the structured knowledge graphs that AI inference engines maintain about people, organizations, places, products, and concepts. Strong knowledge graph presence enables AI engines to reference the entity confidently in responses without ambiguity about identity.
Knowledge graph presence is built through explicit schema markup, consistent entity references across multiple sources, and the gradual accumulation of authoritative content that the AI ecosystem treats as canonical for the entity.
The IEO Engine deployment establishes knowledge graph presence through Person schema (declaring Drew McCallister as the methodology author), Organization schema (declaring IEO Engine as the methodology entity), and DefinedTerm schema (declaring each vocabulary term as a structured entity within the IEO Engine glossary set).
