Can you download a research report without a form?
Broadcastwell measures and fixes whether AI search engines name B2B software companies.
Run the free checkYes. Every Broadcastwell research report downloads directly: no form, no email address, no account and no call. The seven study reports below are PDFs on this site, each listed with its date, pages, file size, license, DOI and SHA-256 checksum, so you can confirm that the file you hold is the file we published.
Updated 9 November 2026.
We chose not to gate our reports. A form would tell us who read them, but it would also stop a buyer, a journalist or a researcher from checking a figure in the minute they have. The underlying data is open too; our open data catalog lists every table.

Each report's first page states its own version, data source and review status. Sizes are rounded to the nearest kilobyte; the checksum file below is exact.
Our longest report, AI search visibility: source evidence and two registered analyses (80 pages, 2 November 2026), is deposited with its 53 public CSV files under DOI 10.5281/zenodo.23804758. Two dated notices of 3 November 2026 travel with it, and both are free PDFs here: an authorship correction and an interpretation correction. Neither changes a method, observation, figure or data file.
How to check a file you downloaded
- Download the checksum list. It holds one SHA-256 value per report, recorded 9 November 2026.
- Compute the checksum of your copy, with
sha256sum <file>on macOS or Linux, orcertutil -hashfile <file> SHA256on Windows. - Compare the two values. A match means your copy is byte for byte the file published here.
For example, Study 1 has the SHA-256 value 21d03ff5eb70575ca59ad548b2930919bf1aeb3ad5e760621ac307cc73e8e881.
What you may do with a report
Reports printed with CC BY 4.0 may be copied, quoted, translated and redistributed, including commercially, with attribution to Broadcastwell. Cite the DOI record rather than the file name; our citation page gives each record in APA, Chicago, BibTeX and RIS. For a printed copy, our print edition of Study 1 adds a cover sheet with print settings in front of the unchanged report.
Where the reports sit among our other pages
Our article archive lists every dated study and article by date. The figures in Studies 1, 3, 5 and 6 come from the Absence Index release 2026-09, answers captured 22 to 23 September 2026. Charts from these reports that appear on our pages are collected in our chart library.
