From COUNTER:

As many of you know, our Advisory Committee has been building some best practice guidance for generative and agentic AI usage metrics. Today we’re sharing the results of that work with you.

The challenge

We developed Release 5.1 of the Code of Practice before to the public availability of generative and agentic artificial intelligence. In this consultation we have built on the patterns in the Code to create mechanisms for reporting on this new type of usage. The new guidelines mostly apply to AI tools on publisher platforms. Third-party and off-site tools like ChatGPT, Consensus or Perplexity may also find the guidelines useful, particularly in conjunction with our existing Syndicated Usage best practice.

We want to make sure that the new guidelines work for as many people as possible, so we really want to hear from you. Whether you are a technology provider, a publisher, a librarian or a consortium manager, please send us your feedback!
