Read an answer

Every answer has three parts: the finding, the data behind it, and the date that data runs through. The third part is the one most people skip and the one that decides whether you should act on the number today.

The finding

Prose first, naming specific products, keywords, and figures. The Reach Dog standard is that an answer replaces vague advice with a specific action, so an answer that says "several high-value opportunities" is not doing its job. An answer that says "the keyword best travel mug for commuting has 12,400 monthly searches at $1.82 CPC, and your Stainless Steel Insulated Tumbler 20oz does not appear for it" is.

The tables

Findings that carry rows are drawn as tables and cards beneath the prose. Keywords with their search volume and cost per click, competitor products with their store and price, groups with their product counts.

When a question runs several specialists, each one's table arrives as its own block, labelled with the specialist that produced it. The specialists stay visible in the evidence trail on purpose. You asked one question and got one answer, and you can still see which part of the platform produced which row.

Tables draw when the turn completes rather than as the text streams. See Ask your first question.

Every answer ends with the sources that produced it:

---
Data Evidence:
[1] keyword search data: 45 rows. Snapshot: July 16, 2026.
[2] market product data: 120 rows. Snapshot: July 16, 2026.

Data Freshness: keyword search data: July 16, 2026 | market product data: July 16, 2026

Each line names the data, how many rows were read, and the snapshot the rows came from. If no data source was queried, the footer says exactly that instead of leaving the line blank.

Dates in the prose

Where a figure comes from a dated build, the answer says so in place: "counts as of July 16, 2026", "brand data through July 13, 2026".

When a date cannot be established, the answer omits it. A date is never invented to fill the slot. An undated count is a count whose vintage we could not confirm, and it should carry less weight in your decision than a dated one.

Where the data comes from

Search volume, cost per click, and competition come from the keyword layer. Product and price comparisons come from listings gathered across more than a million independent online stores. Your own products come from the catalog you attached and are never mixed into anyone else's answers. The Data and method page has the full picture.
