Google vs AI

Ranking on Google and being recommended by AI are related, but they are not the same thing. Google’s map results lean heavily on distance, your Business Profile and reviews. AI answers are written from whatever sources the assistant trusts for that question: directories, articles, forums and review sites as well as Google.

Google	Business	AI Mention Rate	Band	Gap
#1	Clinic F	44%	Frequently named
#2	Clinic A	69%	Frequently named
#3	Name withheld	6%	Rarely named	Ranks well on Google, rarely named by AI
#4	Clinic B	57%	Frequently named
#5	Name withheld	3%	Rarely named	Ranks well on Google, rarely named by AI
#6	Clinic E	20%	Sometimes named

Google: position in the map results for “laser hair removal Dubai”, searched from the same location. A gap is a business in Google’s top 5 that falls in the “Rarely named” band. Businesses below the “Sometimes named” band are shown by their Google position only. We don’t name businesses that AI rarely mentions.
