What it looks like when a business is in the answer.

We don't publish claims. We publish answers. Every result on this page comes from a captured AI response to a question the client's customers actually ask, and the screenshots behind each one are walked in full on the Market Review. Client names appear here only with written permission; until then the business is described, not named.

The same competitor was co-named in all ten answers and ranked second overall. On the two questions where the client placed second, the client's own website was not among the sources the AI cited; a competitor's was. That pattern is the whole lesson of this page.

Getting cited is what gets you named.

On every question where the AI pulled a page from the client's own site, the client ranked first. On both questions where it didn't, the client dropped to second and a competitor's page was cited instead. Ranking in an AI answer is not a popularity contest. It tracks almost exactly with whether the AI could find, read, and quote a page about you.

What the pages it quoted had in common: named, verifiable credentials; the specific towns served; specific, current information about the work and what it costs. Where the client was thin — one service line without its own page, a suburb without a mention — the answer went to whoever had written it down.

01
Specific beats general
The AI quoted exact credentials and exact figures. It skipped the pages that said "premier" and "trusted."
02
Every town you serve needs to be written down
A competitor earned a citation on the suburb question purely for listing the suburbs it serves.
03
Every service you sell needs its own page
The one second-place result on a core service went to a competitor with a dedicated page naming the brands it installs.
04
Reviews the AI can see
Three competitors had ratings quoted in the answer. The client had none surfaced — and held the top spot on credentials alone. Fixing that is next month's line.

Ten questions. Four engines. Forty answers. Every month.

This is the standard behind every DVC report, including the one above.

The questions are locked

Ten questions your customers actually ask, agreed with you at the start and held constant, so month-to-month movement means something.

Every answer is captured

ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Google. Each answer is screenshotted as returned. Nothing is summarized that you can't see for yourself.

A miss is reported as a miss

Named or not named. First or not first. Cited or not cited. When the landscape shifts, you see the shift and what we're doing about it — not a rounded-off story.

Client results are added to this page as they're cleared for release. The full set — and the screenshots behind every table — is walked live on the Market Review.
