What this page represents
The replay reproduces timestamped observations: it is not a live search and not a ranking simulation. Select a date to see what was recorded and how it differs from the snapshot before. The analysis is derived from those same files and labelled as such.
Scope and methodology
The series covers US. Results were collected by demo-generator on a daily cadence. Read methodology 1.0.
The index lists every snapshot file with its SHA-256 checksum, so a copy can be verified independently. The CSV flattens the same observations, one row per result, with nothing derived added.
