Frequently asked questions

A single number, 0 to 100, for how findable and recommendable your business is to AI assistants. We build it from eight signals: your website, reviews, listings, and whether AI actually names you. We publish every weight.

Yes. You can look up any business and see its AI Score for nothing, and registering your own business is free too. The honest read on where you stand should never sit behind a paywall.

We ask AI assistants the questions your customers ask, record what they say, and combine it with eight signals drawn from public data. The whole method is written down on the methodology page.

No. No business can buy a higher score or a softer write-up, and no one can pay to be removed from a rival’s list. Independence is the whole point of a record.

Public sources: your website, your Google Business Profile, the major review platforms, and live checks of what AI assistants say about you. The data policy lists exactly what we use.

Use “report an error” and a real person reviews it, usually within two business days. A public record has to be a correct one.

Opt out and we take your entry off the register, no questions asked.

No. We are independent. We observe what assistants say about local businesses and write it down. We do not control them, and they do not pay us.

Getting a business named when a neighbor asks ChatGPT, Gemini or Perplexity for a recommendation. Some call it AI SEO, some call it generative engine optimization. Traditional SEO fights for ten blue links; this fights for the one answer an assistant says out loud. The AI Score on every business page measures the eight signals that drive it.

The public record of how AI sees local business. We score every business we list by one published method, we keep the questions people ask about it in one place, and we never sell rank. Looking up any business here is free.

Assistants read public pages before they answer. Each business page states what the business does and what people ask about it, in one place a machine can read. Correcting what's wrong on it changes what an assistant repeats next.

People nearby ask and answer on it under pseudonyms, and we check every question before it goes up. Once the owner registers the page, they can reply as the business, and their reply says so.

Register your page. It's free, it takes about five minutes, and it lets you correct what's on it and reply as the business. Nothing on a business page is for sale, so the only thing that moves the score is the work.
