It measures how likely AI engines are to recommend a business, and how accurately. Dalton eye care centers run 31 to 56. Fair starts at 45, good at 65. Southeastern Retina scores 36, below the Dalton average of 43. The same method scores every business on the registry.

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.
