Choice Control Index State customer

A model projection by buyer type on the Turkey market: a cell estimates the share of scenarios in which the AI assistant puts the company on the primary shortlist. The study's buyer is measured; other types are derived from it.

Empty cells are markets where the measurement has not been collected yet.

The largest gap is on the priority export markets with the highest capacity: the larger the demand, the denser it is taken by competitors.

Buyer type «State energy operator» in the Turkey market: CCI 13. The primary choice is formed mostly between competitors.

Interpretation

What this means

The company enters the primary AI choice with an index of 7 out of 100. This is not an assessment of the product — it is an assessment of how machine-readably the company is present in the sources AI systems rely on.

This is manageable. The cells with the highest index show that, given a structured argument, the systems readily put the company into the shortlist. The task is to extend that to the remaining cells.

Index sensitivity

Wave Q1 2026

What a higher position can change

Change the target CCI and source coverage to see the model's sensitivity. The calculation shows a possible change of position inside the model and is not a revenue forecast.

Move the target index level — the model recalculates what share of the category is redistributed.

Analytical summary

Key findings of the study

A participation gap, not a quality one
The company shows up in the discussion but rarely reaches the recommendation: participation index 64 against win index 11. A product is not knocked out of the shortlist — it never gets in.
Below the universe median
CCI 7 against the category median 24. The leader is NuScale Power with 30; the gap is 23 points.
Where the choice is lost
The main loss factor is “In the answers the small-capacity product is not linked to the brand”, named in 66% of answers.
The economic weight of the gap
This study's market is worth $0.3–0.5 bn a year. The position in AI choice decides how much of it reaches consideration.
The index is built out of sources
The leaders' advantage is the density of structured sources, not the price of the product. That is exactly what makes the index manageable.

Measurement

Measured: the Choice Control Index, the participation and win indices, the composition of shortlists in the choice scenarios.

Projection

Projected: the distribution across buyer types, the reachable market and the sensitivity of category share to the index. These are model estimates, not a measurement.

Profile and inclusion criterion

Rosatom

The Akkuyu track record pulls Rosatom into the early stages of the choice, but in the small-capacity segment the AI systems barely connect it to a ready product and steer towards Western vendors.

Choice question: Choosing the reactor technology for a second nuclear site

Universe of the “Small modular reactors × Turkey” study: 4 objects in the choice funnel, one methodology, one wave.

This is a managerial gap, not a reputational one: the sources AI systems rely on do not carry structured data about the company in the form they quote for its competitors.
