LLM Perception

These examples show only a reduced slice of what VectorGap can do. Pick YETI, Aesop, Away, or Decathlon and you can see the chain most dashboards flatten away: what the answer says, who it prefers, which sources shape that preference, and what an agency would fix before the next retest.
