Metric · Competition
First named
Definition
When a tracked brand is named first, the percentage of those answers led by this brand.
How it is calculated
The denominator contains answers where at least one tracked entity is mentioned. When a winner exists, first-named shares sum to 100% across the tracked set.
Where to see it
This metric appears in the refd dashboard and in the no-signup demo, and every value links back to the AI answer it was scored from. A number you cannot trace to an answer cannot be checked, so refd keeps the raw response behind each one.
The definition above is the one the product uses. It is read directly from the same source the dashboard and the MCP server read, so this page cannot drift from the software.
