Lens research

A Lens study is a measurement, not an opinion: every claim carries its configuration, measurement date and number of repetitions, and never generalises beyond the measured set. This page lists the studies behind the Lens numbers, each with its core finding and the full publication.

Measured 4 to 6 September 2026

Is generative engine optimization worth it?

Across three runs on five pinned questions, ChatGPT and Claude issued 32 unique search queries. None of them had a hiveminds.nl page among the consulted sources; those sources came from 184 other domains.

Lens methodology (Dutch)

How Lens measures: four scored AI platforms per run (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews), plus a diagnostic ChatGPT search variant that does not count towards the score. Pinned prompt and platform sets, and a score with three measured dimensions: Citation, Technical and Content.
