Share of voice is how often and how prominently AI names a business across every prompt and assistant. Depth is how well AI can help a customer actually decide and book. Vanheat Services ranks #3 for visibility but 7th on depth.

Depth leaderboard

Which businesses AI understands best

Getting named is step one. Depth measures whether AI can take a customer from that name to a booking: offerings, availability, pricing, fit, differentiation. It's ranked separately from visibility, because a business AI recommends but can't explain still loses the job.

Recommended ≠ understood. Vanheat Services ranks #3 for visibility but #7 on depth. AI's weakest link for it is pricing. High visibility with low depth is the riskiest combination for a business: customers arrive, then get the wrong expectations.

Methodology

How the index is measured

What we ask

24 real customer prompts per market, like "best HVAC in Denver" or "who can fix my AC today," put to each assistant twice, every week. We never name a business; we watch which ones AI names.

How we rank

Share of voice weighs how often and how prominently a business is recommended across every prompt and assistant, on a trailing average, so one odd answer doesn't swing the board. Rank comes from what the AI actually says, not its local-pack widget.

What depth means

For the leaders we run a buyer's decision journey (offerings, availability, pricing, fit, differentiation) and grade how well AI can carry a customer to a booking. It measures AI's output, not our opinion of the business.
