The Trust Index · independent AI recommendation index

When a buyer asks ChatGPT who to hire, fewer than a third of licensed businesses ever come up.

The Trust Index asks the major AI assistants the questions buyers actually ask, market by market, and publishes exactly who gets named, how often, and from which sources. Starting from the regulator's own list of eligible businesses, so the ones that never come up are counted too.

How a reading is made

1 · Universe

Start from the regulator's list

Every eligible business in the market, exported with a date. Nobody is added because they were named or dropped because they were not.

2 · Questions

Ask what buyers ask

17 fixed questions across category, local, risk, innovation and outcome, published in full and frozen for the vertical.

3 · Capture

Scored assistants, three runs, one window

16 questions × each scored assistant × 3 runs; each reading lists the assistants it scored and its answer count. Fresh sessions, 72 hours, every answer preserved. Spread across runs is published, not hidden.

4 · Publish

Score, rank, disclose, archive

Position-weighted recommendation share, 0–100. Structured cells published; answer text withheld. Readings are dated and archived; corrections are logged on the reading, with the superseded figure left visible.

Businesses

Know where you stand, by question

Every eligible business has a page, named or not: share by assistant, question by question, and the sources the assistants cited. Claim it; the score does not change.

The score is never for sale

No business can pay to be tested, listed, scored, moved or removed. The index is published by LittPro Inc. Businesses marked Agency client are scored by the same pipeline as everyone else. Every reading is checked by a person and signed off by a responsible analyst before it is final, and any correction is logged on the reading with its date.
