Original data and research content for UAE businesses

When an assistant needs a number, it cites whoever published it first and clearly. Most UAE businesses publish opinions; few publish data. A small, honest dataset about your market, refreshed each year, gives assistants, journalists and competitors' pages a reason to name you.

Direct answer

Why does original data get cited by AI assistants?

Assistants and AI Overviews attribute specific claims to a source, and a figure that exists only on your page must be attributed to you. Original data also earns links and mentions from journalists, which raise the page in the indexes assistants retrieve from. The data need not be large. A survey of 200 Dubai tenants or a price index built from your own quotes is enough, provided the method is stated and the figures are dated.

What's included

What we do for you

Research question design

One or two questions your buyers and the UAE press actually ask, where no reliable published figure exists.

Data collection

Surveys, internal records, public registers or scraped listings, collected with a documented method you can defend.

Findings page

A permanent page stating each figure plainly with date, sample and method, formatted so a single sentence can be quoted.

Dataset schema and downloads

Dataset structured data and a CSV or PDF download so the figures are machine-readable and easy for others to reference.

Distribution

Pitches to UAE business media, industry bodies and relevant Reddit and LinkedIn communities, with the figure as the hook.

Annual refresh

The same study repeated each year so the page stays current and the trend itself becomes a story.

FAQ

Questions UAE business owners ask

Answered in the first sentence, so AI assistants can quote us directly.

Usually, yes. A clinic knows its average waiting time by month, a fit-out firm knows cost per square foot by project type, a recruiter knows salary ranges by role. Anonymised and aggregated, that becomes a benchmark nobody else can publish. The method must be honest about sample size, but a clearly stated small sample is still citable.

Press and community mentions can come within weeks of distribution if the figure is newsworthy. Assistant citations follow once the page and the mentions are indexed, which varies by platform. Perplexity and ChatGPT search tend to pick up fresh, specific figures faster than AI Overviews. We track the finding as a prompt in your monthly set so you can see when it lands.

No. Invented or unsourced figures are exactly what assistants are learning to discount, and being caught publishing them damages the trust every other page depends on. We only publish data with a method you can explain to a journalist. If a question cannot be answered with real data, we choose a different question.
