  "summary": "Ottobock is tracked across AI employer visibility rankings in the Biotechnology sector. When candidates research the company through AI, it is rarely surfaced in employer-related queries — candidates researching this industry are far more likely to encounter competitors first — ranking #32 out of 36 Biotechnology companies in the PerceptionX index.\n\nAI models most frequently position Ottobock alongside Biontech, Evotec, and Bayer when discussing Biotechnology employers.\n\nThe company shows strongest employer visibility in Mission, Purpose & Impact. Visibility gaps exist in Application & Communication, Candidate Feedback and Career Opportunities, where competitors tend to dominate the AI narrative.\n\nOttobock's Visibility Score has fallen from 4.2 to 2.6 across its last 2 measurements (since January 2026), slipping 18 places in the Biotechnology rankings. Over that period it has moved ahead of Pfizer. Sanofi and Abbvie have moved ahead of it. It now trails Thermo Fisher Scientific by 2.5 points.\n\nThis analysis is based on AI-generated responses from ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Perplexity. Data is refreshed regularly to reflect changes in AI employer perception.",

    "description": "Visibility Score (0-100) is the share of AI model × candidate-experience-theme combinations within an industry and country where the company was mentioned in AI-generated answers to candidate-style questions. Ranks are computed per industry and country; ties break by mention count, then company name. Responses from other assistants (e.g. Claude, DeepSeek) are collected for research but not included in index scoring.",
