# What assistants recommend in Pretoria

ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini were asked 22 questions the way people ask them, with web search on, and told to link each place's own site. Below is every question, with the places named, who named them, and the direct link where the place has one.

131

places named across the 22 questions

881

businesses in this index

88

with a website of their own

75%

of the places named came with their own site

Every other business in the index was never named. The questions are a sample of what people ask, and the places named change from one round to the next.

 Method

## How this is read

Each assistant was asked each question once, with web search on, for up to three places and the link to each one's own website. Names are read from the answer and matched against the index. Any link between one name and the next belongs to that place. "With its own site" means the assistant linked the place's own website. "Through a marketplace" or "a directory" means it linked a listing instead, and "by name" means it gave no link. The direct links come from the Direct Index's own scan of the place's site. The assistant didn't supply them.
