It measures how likely AI engines are to recommend a business, and how accurately. San Francisco chinese restaurants run 24 to 57. Fair starts at 45, good at 65. Amazing scores 26, below the San Francisco average of 32. The same method scores every business on the registry.

| Reviews & response | 12 | 89 | The star average is only one input. We also read volume, velocity, the specificity of review language, and response cadence. Specific reviews are what AI quotes verbatim. | Good |

Visitor references are dated firsthand accounts. AI guesses record what an AI engine said on that date, not what is true.
