What we measured

Ask three AIs, get three answers

  • Divorce law: “best divorce lawyer in Minneapolis for a high-asset divorce”. 12 different firms were named, and none appeared in all three assistants.
  • Education: “best language school in Minneapolis for adults”. 17 different schools were named. No single school was named by all three assistants.
  • Wealth: “best wealth management firm in Minneapolis for a family with $5 million”. 15 different firms were named. Not one made all three lists.
  • Brunch: “best brunch spot in Minneapolis”. 10 different spots were named. No spot appeared in all three assistants.

Across 36 answers, 116 businesses were named. 85 of them, or 73%, showed up in only one assistant. Being named is not luck. It can be worked on.
