Firms explain what they do.
Service relevance was the strongest dimension. Accounting, tax, bookkeeping and advisory language was generally clear enough to classify.

Useful answers are scarce.
Answerability was the lowest dimension. Most homepages describe services but do not directly answer the detailed questions a prospective client—or an answer engine—would ask.
Turn expertise into evidence.
Specific client questions, named authors, credentials, examples and verifiable outcomes can make existing expertise easier to understand and trust.
Method note: directional, non-random sample of 12 publicly accessible firm homepages collected September 22, 2026. Scores measure on-page website evidence and machine readiness—not live AI rankings, endorsements or service quality. Firms are reported only in aggregate.
