# What's the difference between "Score" and "Rank" in the AI Engine Breakdown?

It's important to understand the difference between these two metrics as they tell you different things:

* **Score (0-100):** This is a **quality** metric. It grades how well your page's content, structure, and authority align with what a specific AI engine (like ChatGPT) prefers. A high score means your page is "high-quality" in the eyes of that AI.
* **Rank (0-100):** This is a **competitive** metric. It shows your position relative to the top 100 competitors in your niche for that specific AI engine. A lower number is better (e.g., Rank 5 means you are in the top 5).

**Example:** You could have a high Score of 85 (your page is great) but a Rank of 20 (there are 19 competitors whose pages are even better). This tells you that while your quality is high, your competition is extremely strong.
