Source Authority Mapping — Who Writes Your Maison in the Minds of AI

Citations alone are noise. Source Authority Mapping is the strategic layer on top: a curated tier registry tuned for luxury (Vogue, BoF, FT, WWD, Wikipedia), a weighted Authority Score per source, an Ecosystem Map you can export to your Comex deck, and a single Narrative Control Score that summarises whether your Maison owns its own story in AI.

Medium
Dior has only 0 citations on New York Times in the last 30 days. For a Tier 2 luxury-relevant source (editorial quality 80/100), this is a strategic gap. Brief your PR team for a targeted editorial pitch — heritage angle, creative direction, atelier immersion, or craft savoir-faire depending on the source's focus.
Suggested Angles
Heritage & savoir-faire — legacy lineage through the lens of contemporary relevance
Creative direction — a profile piece on the creative director's latest collection manifesto
Atelier immersion — behind-the-scenes craftsmanship report, 72h in the Maison

Tier registry tuned for luxury

How it works

Every week, ahead of Monday morning, AUGMA scores each source cited about your Maison over a rolling 30-day window, blends the five components into the Authority Score, then aggregates the citation mix into your Narrative Control Score. The Ecosystem Map and Top Sources table refresh automatically.
