Cayman AI Visibility Index · November 2026
Every month Footprint asks ChatGPT and Claude the questions visitors and residents actually ask about Cayman, many times each, with web search on, and records who gets named and which pages the assistants read to decide. This is what they said.
Share of all answers that drew on each source. A handful of pages decide most recommendations; if a business isn't on them, the assistants have nothing to say about it.
The two assistants read the web differently, so a business can be visible on one and absent on the other.

Share of answers in this industry that named the business. Businesses named in fewer than 10% of answers are not listed — ask for a free check to see your own number.
In-depth check, 14 Grand Cayman charters, 36–78 answers each on a charter-specific question set (7–8 Nov 2026), so shares aren't comparable with the list above: three charters were named in more than half of all answers — Outcast 67%, Jah Bless 61%, Reel Vibes 56%. The other eleven were named in roughly one answer in ten, or never.
So the numbers can be checked.
Each question is sent to each assistant several times with web search turned on, asking as a US visitor for tourism questions and as a Cayman resident for local services. Every answer is stored with the pages the assistant cited. A business counts as named when its name appears in the answer; the share is the fraction of answers in which that happened. AI answers vary from run to run, so a share is reported over repeated runs, never a single position. Sources are counted once per answer. Businesses below 10% are left unnamed on this page by design.
