How Logres checks AI visibility without making promises
Logres uses consistent buyer questions, saves full answers, keeps four scores separate, and leaves unsupported results unavailable.
How Logres helps
AI assistants recommend businesses, and yours may be missing while competitors appear; Logres finds likely visible reasons, helps fix supported gaps, and asks the same buyer questions again.

Anyone can ask an AI assistant one question and take a screenshot. A useful business check needs more discipline: consistent questions, saved full answers, clear scoring rules, and honest limits.
Here is how Logres approaches that work.
Use the same buyer questions
Each check starts with a fixed, versioned group of natural questions that buyers ask when choosing or comparing businesses.
Logres saves every full answer with its date and any source links shown. Keeping the questions and check version steady makes a later comparison more useful. If the setup changes too much, Logres does not present the difference as a trend.
Keep four results separate
Logres reports four results on separate 0–100 scales:
- Visibility: How often and how prominently your business appeared in saved recommendation answers.
- Authority: How often your own public pages appeared among the source links shown in decision answers.
- Accuracy: How closely saved descriptions matched facts your business approved, when enough information was available.
- Influence: Whether the answer gave buyers useful reasons to consider your business.
These results are never averaged into one overall number. A business can appear often but be described incorrectly. It can also be described well while its own website is rarely shown as a source. One average would hide the problem you need to fix.
Leave unsupported results unavailable
Some scores require specific information. Accuracy, for example, needs an approved fact sheet. Without one, there is no fair way to judge whether a description is correct.
Logres marks that result unavailable and explains what is missing. It does not estimate a score to fill an empty dashboard cell.
Report change without claiming cause
A score or answer may differ in a later check. That difference is worth reviewing, but it does not prove why the change happened.
Models, assistant products, outside sources, and public pages can all change. Logres shows what went live on the website and what assistants said later while keeping those steps separate.
What you gain
You receive a dated first check you can inspect, a prioritized list of public gaps, and a way to check again under compatible rules. That is less dramatic than a guarantee, but it gives you something real to act on.
Common questions
Why not combine the four results?
Because each identifies a different problem. One overall score would hide whether you are missing, poorly described, rarely cited, or weakly presented.
What does unavailable mean?
It means the information needed for a fair score was missing. The report explains what is needed instead of guessing.
If a later score changes, did the work cause it?
Not necessarily. Logres can show the timing and the differences, but a before-and-after sequence alone does not prove cause.
