It measures how likely AI engines are to recommend a business, and how accurately. San Francisco sports bars run 25 to 69. Fair starts at 45, good at 65. The Lark scores 69, above the San Francisco average of 36. The same method scores every business on the registry.

| AI visibility | 14 | Whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and AI Overviews name you, and whether they name you for the right service. | ||
| Reviews & response | 12 | 78 | 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 |
| Backlink & citation authority | 8 | 67 | Domain authority and editorial quality of the sources that attest to you. | Good |

This is exactly what this page sends to Google, Bing, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini.

Each reference names the fact, the source, what kind of source it is, and the date it was checked, with a link and an archived copy so anyone can verify it. Visitor references are dated firsthand accounts. AI guesses record what an AI engine said on that date, not what is true.
