M1 · Own AI-visibility 2 · 9%
Absent from category recall on both engines (German GEO/AEO shortlists named Aufgesang, rankeffect, Kopp/Olaf Kopp, Claneo, geoagentur.de — not 10X Strategy). Brand recall thin/self-sourced on both: ChatGPT — 'hauptsächlich die eigene Website; praktisch keine unabhängigen Fachartikel, Presseberichte oder Drittquellen'; Claude — 'Betreiber Marco Licht (Bad Bellingen); nur ein selbst angelegtes ProvenExpert-Profil (ohne echte Bewertungen) und eine Localo-Microsite — alles Eigenmaterial; sehr junges Profil.' measured via ChatGPT + Claude probe, 2026-06-29 ↗
M2 · Method transparency 4 · 16%
A clear three-phase process with named deliverables — free assessment of current Maps/review/ChatGPT/Gemini/Perplexity standing, a working session that writes "Content für die fünf Kauf-Fragen", "das Framework dazu, also Antwort-Struktur und Schema-Vorgaben", and a monthly short report on the ongoing tier. Mechanism is concrete; described at the offer level rather than a public sample deliverable. source ↗
M3 · Evidence verifiability 5 · 23%
Named clients with logos (Jalios GmbH, SUUSY, CAB IT Systemhaus, BRAWADO GmbH, Reitkunstzentrum Südbaden, KW.Eventtechnik, MW Hotels) plus linkable reference pages (kweventtechnik.de, reitkunstzentrum-suedbaden.de, suusy.de) and bounded results ("Jalios: Rang 1 bei Perplexity, Rang 6 bei ChatGPT in acht Wochen"; "CAB IT: +75% mehr Besucher, +205% mehr Klicks"). Named founder Marco Licht with LinkedIn. Scored on checkability, not outcome truth. source ↗
M4 · Pricing openness 5 · 12%
Full published prices — KI-Empfehlungs-Check €47 (one-time), KI-Sichtbarkeits-Analyse €998 (one-time), core offer €5,800 fixed, retainers "Sichtbar bleiben" €1,100/mo and "Vorn bleiben" €2,200/mo (cancellable monthly). Entry check is buyable online; higher tiers route through a calendar. source ↗
M5 · AI legibility 5 · 10%
Reachable to AI crawlers and server-rendered; machine-legibility — Schema.org ✓ · sitemap ✓ · llms.txt ✓ (3/3). source ↗ · checked 2026-06-30
E1 · Segment fit 4 · 12%
editorial — Built for "lokaler Dienstleister oder B2B-Software im DACH-Raum" — a 33-km local radius and "1 pro Branche" for B2B SaaS; SMB/mid-market, no enterprise machinery. source ↗
E2 · Promise cleanliness 2 · 18%
editorial — Carries a conditional work-free guarantee — "Steigt Dein KI-Empfehlungs-Anteil bei diesen Fragen im Fenster von 90 Tagen nicht messbar, legen wir einmal kostenlos nach", coupled to client cooperation. It explicitly denies a ranking guarantee ("Einen Platz eins in ChatGPT versprechen wir nicht, das kann niemand seriös garantieren"). Per CitationRegister calibration a conditional/work-free guarantee lowers E2 but does NOT trigger the red-flag cap. source ↗
◧ M1 cross-engine — ChatGPT: self-sourced-thin — mainly own website; no independent articles/press/third-party · Claude: self-sourced-thin — Marco Licht (Bad Bellingen); self-made ProvenExpert + Localo microsite only; very young · recorded, not averaged
Named clients, linkable reference pages and bounded results, plus a concrete five-question method and fully published prices. What pulls the verdict down is a conditional "if your AI-recommendation share doesn't measurably rise in 90 days, we top up once free" guarantee (E2); it is softened by an explicit refusal to promise a #1 placement, so it lowers E2 without tripping the red-flag cap. Own-visibility (M1) is provisional.

What this ruler does NOT measure Track-record depth and the volume of named cases favour older incumbents we cannot fully see; NDA-bound outcomes are unscored. We weight reproducible, buyer-checkable signal on purpose — and we list ourselves on the same ruler.
