The right side, titled "Comparative Citation Measurement Metrics," compares two distinct approaches. "Platform A" focuses on technical execution: Schema Compliance, Page Segmentation, and Source Domain Metrics. "Platform B" focuses on context and impact: Semantic Clustering, Contextual Volume (sentiment-based), and Reply Conversion Rate (clicks from AI answers). The design uses a muted gray and white palette with sharp blue and orange accents for clarity.
