Coverage Criteria

AI-Buzz is curated, not comprehensive. This page explains what qualifies a company for tracking and how coverage differs from the supporting DAI leaderboard.

What Qualifies A Company For Coverage

Package Footprint

Published npm or PyPI packages with measurable activity are the clearest path into coverage.

Open-Source Presence

Public GitHub repos, contributor activity, or other trackable developer signals can justify inclusion.

Operational Relevance

Hiring demand, pricing movement, or comparable operating signals can matter when they help explain a market shift.

Manual Review

Coverage is curated. Companies are added because they matter to current signal coverage, not because we can scrape them.

What Coverage Does Not Mean

Coverage is not a claim of completeness. The site tracks the companies that matter most to the current research scope, not every company that uses the word "AI".
Coverage is not the same thing as rank. The public DAI formula lives on the methodology page and is distinct from the question of whether a company belongs in the tracked universe.
Coverage does not guarantee every signal for every company. Closed-source or sparse companies can appear with lower confidence and fewer metrics.

How Coverage Is Maintained

Add

New companies are added when they satisfy the coverage threshold and fit the tracked AI market scope.

Reclassify

Category or status changes are applied when a company pivots, is acquired, or no longer fits the tracked lane.

Preserve History

Low traction alone is not a removal reason. Historical signals are more valuable than a constantly rewritten leaderboard.

Go Back To Company Pages

Coverage criteria explain why a company appears on AI-Buzz. The actual signals still live on the Research Brief, the company page, and the methodology that qualifies them.
