“Its own Birmingham page claims same-day appointments and 24/7 emergency service (its claims, availability today not verified), and its address-matched BBB profile is accredited A+ with one complaint in three years, though it has zero reviews and publishes no prices.”
“Its own page claims same-day service in most cases with 24/7 response and publishes a $49 diagnostic fee (its claims and own price, availability today not verified), and its address-matched BBB profile is accredited A+, though with 3/5 from 2 reviews and 4 complaints in three years.”
“Its own page offers around-the-clock Birmingham emergency AC repair without overtime charges, but its matched BBB profile carries a licensing alert listing a license expiry of December 30, 2025 that could not be resolved (not proof of no license), and its complaint totals include corporate locations.”
“Despite its own same-day and 24/7 claims and a local 35242 address, its linked expanded llms file contains agent-directed answering and inquiry-routing instructions, so it was set aside and its claims were not relied on.”
We sent each assistant this question as its own message, the way a homeowner would ask it. It searched the web and read business sites on its own. Each answer shows which assistant and version answered and when. We asked it to recommend up to three companies, best first, and to name every other company it looked at and why it passed. Reasons are quoted as given. Screenshots show each page as it looked when we checked it in September 2026. We ask again every month and keep every answer. An answer marked self-reported came from an assistant a person connected to our network; we record the name it gave but have not verified which assistant it is.
