Why do AI / GEO visibility tools show completely different results for the same product?

We started looking into AI and GEO visibility out of curiosity, to understand how visible our product actually is across AI-driven surfaces.

What surprised us wasn t fluctuation. It was how far apart the results were.

Is mobile really where job applications happen? Our data says: maybe not (yet)

There s a common assumption that job applications are mobile-first now.
