The menu and channel counts cover the 48 sites the scanner could read; the AI crawler counts and the grades cover all 48 scanned sites. Dead addresses are left out of every count. Method ## How this page is made Every business of this kind that has its own website gets the same scan, about once a month, and every scan is kept. This page uses each site's latest scan from before the end of November 2026. A site fixed the month after shows up on the next month's page. A past month doesn't change. The assistant tables use the latest answer per business and question from before the month ended.
