They're counted with the businesses that have no website and left out of the ranking.

What assistants recommend in Montevideo cafes and bars
Each assistant was asked the way people ask, with web search on, for up to three places and a link to book or order directly with each. For the places it recommended, the table shows how many came with a link to the place's own site, to a marketplace or to a directory, and how many came with no link at all.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ChatGPT | 97% | 0% | 0% | 3% | 34 |
| Gemini | 84% | 0% | 0% | 16% | 37 |
Asked on 2026-11-03. A place in this index links to its report, and one with its own site that isn't in the index yet links to a scan.
