HOW TO READ THIS REPORT

Action plan is what to do next — copy-pasteable changes prioritized by impact. Category visibility is the real GEO test: when a user asks an AI a brand-free question that should surface dwzhu-pku/PaperBanana, does the AI actually recommend you — or your competitors? Objective checks verify the metadata signals AI engines weight first. Self-mention check detects whether AI even knows you exist by name.

> Hi everyone! The original version of PaperBanana is already open-sourced under Google-Research as PaperVizAgent. This repository forked the content of that repo and aims to keep evolving toward better support for academic paper illustration—though we have made solid progress, there is still a long way to go for more reliable generation and for more diverse, complex scenarios. PaperBanana is intended to be a fully open-source project dedicated to facilitating academic illustration for all researchers. Our goal is simply to benefit the community, so we currently have no plans to use it for commercial purposes.
