  "summary": "River Island is tracked across AI employer visibility rankings in the Apparel sector. When candidates research the company through AI, it surfaces consistently in employer-related queries — ranking #11 out of 58 Apparel companies in the PerceptionX index.\n\nAI models most frequently position River Island alongside ASOS, Marks & Spencer, and Burberry when discussing Apparel employers.\n\nThe company shows strongest employer visibility in Candidate Feedback, Inclusion and Innovation. Visibility gaps exist in Application & Communication, Career Opportunities and Company Culture, where competitors tend to dominate the AI narrative.\n\nRiver Island's Visibility Score has risen from 2.1 to 12.8 across its last 3 measurements (since February 2026), climbing 41 places in the Apparel rankings. Over that period it has moved ahead of Dr. Martens and H & M. It now trails Adidas by 2.6 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.",
