# Understanding AI answers

AI answers are the responses collected by running your tracked prompts on AI models. Visibility, position, sentiment, and source analytics start with these individual answers. When a metric changes, open the underlying answers to see what was mentioned and which sources were used.

## Filter the answers table

The table shows prompts, AI answers, fan-out queries, mentioned brands, cited domains, answer features, position, and creation date. Select multiple brands, features, or sources to narrow the list, and sort the columns.

## Return from metrics to answers

1. Find a changing metric in [performance](https://orchestor.io/docs/en/visibility/performance.md).
2. Filter answers to the same period and scope.
3. Read the brand description, mention order, and citations.
4. Check [domains](https://orchestor.io/docs/en/sources/domains.md) or [URLs](https://orchestor.io/docs/en/sources/urls.md) for the wider pattern.
