How to use this report
- Price check. BV puts one new followed link from claude.ai at $148 (level C): $74 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $185 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A quote far above $185 for a level C link pays for what BV does not measure.
- Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 90 / 100; it is an AI assistant, not a publication: the links it gives are listings, profiles or user posts (level C). The spam score of its links is 7 (0–100, the linking pages' average), not claude.ai's own.
- Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Aug 2026 estimate: 950.2M monthly visits, 12% from organic search (117.4M). Visits rose 0.4% from Jun 2026 to Aug 2026. Its top keyword by Visits (est.) is “cloude”, about 2.1M a month; the ad value beside it is the whole market's.
- AI assistant visits. 2.7% of its visits in Aug 2026 came from AI assistants' answers, about 25.6M (visits, not citations); ChatGPT sent the most in Aug 2026, 80% of them. The split moved a lot between months (ChatGPT from 43% in Jul 2026 to 80% in Aug 2026): read it as a snapshot, not a trend.
How BV is worked out
A followed editorial link from claude.ai would be worth up to $1,477 under BV 2.7, before relevance: its Site Strength is 90 out of 100. The link it usually gives is a listing, profile or user post (level C), since claude.ai is an AI assistant — worth about $148 — and relevance to the site it points to moves that between $74 and $185.

A link from claude.ai, by the kind of link it can give
claude.ai is an AI assistant, not a publication, so the links it gives are not articles. These are the ones it can give, on the same A–D scale, at its strength.
| Link | What it is | Level | Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Featured by the company | The company's own blog or documentation links to you — rare. | A · ×1 | $1,477 |
| Shared conversation page | A conversation someone published as a public page — user-made, like a forum post. | C · ×0.1 | $148 |
| Cited in an answer | Not a backlink: a reader may click it, but it is not a page search engines crawl, so it passes no link equity. What it brings is visits. | Not a backlink | $0 |

Limitations: what this report does not show
- No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
- A link that is followed is not necessarily a link search engines value; this record does not measure rankings or traffic.
- The BV score is what one new followed link from claude.ai is worth to rankings, from its Site Strength and the kind of link on offer. It is not a price, and it does not predict what a link will do for a particular site: relevance to that site moves it between half and one and a quarter times.
- Traffic figures come from a third-party traffic source, named with its date in the evidence box above; no one outside a site sees its analytics.
