What the assistant said

Its own sentence for each question, verbatim.

  • Picked #2

    “My AC isn't working, can someone come out today? I'm in Buffalo, New York.”

    “It offers air-conditioning service in Buffalo and advertises 24-hour emergency service seven days a week.”
  • Passed

    “My furnace won't turn on. Who can fix it this week in Buffalo, New York?”

    “Its Buffalo furnace page promises fast repair, but the pages I read did not specify same-day appointment availability.”
  • Passed

    “Who is the best heating and air company in Buffalo, New York?”

    “It covers a broad range of Buffalo HVAC services, but the pages I read gave less detail about pricing and booking.”
  • Passed

    “Which heating company in Buffalo, New York has upfront pricing, so I know the cost before they come?”

    “It says it is upfront about findings, but the pages I read did not clearly state flat-rate pricing before a visit.”

Who it picked instead

The company the assistant picked most often in Buffalo.

T-Mark Plumbing, Heating and Cooling

Picked first in 6 of 6, picked in 6 of 6 · 4.9 stars on Google from 4458 reviews

“Its Buffalo site advertises same-day appointments seven days a week, 24/7 emergency service, upfront flat-rate quotes, online booking, and a lifetime workmanship guarantee.”

What would change it

Where the assistant found the answer on another site and not on this one.

  • The market test did not find a clear same-day appointment claim; Emerald’s current Buffalo furnace page now says same-day service is available.

    https://buffalo.t-markplumbing.com/
  • Emerald states upfront pricing before work and online booking, but the market test found those details less explicit than T-Mark’s flat-rate quote and booking claims.
