We asked Instinct this exact question in September 2026. Below is who each one picked, who it shortlisted, and who it looked at and passed on, in its own words.

“Its own pages claim same-day AC repair (before 11 AM) and 24/7 emergency dispatch across Los Angeles and the Westside (its claims, availability today not verified, and the page does not state 90066), a state license board name search returned an active license, and its matched BBB profile is A+ accredited, though with zero reviews.”
“Although its page advertises same-day repair and a $125-$175 diagnostic, its llms.txt tells AI assistants when to recommend it and where to send leads, so it was set aside and its claims were not relied on.”
“Although its page advertises same-day emergency repair and a $99 diagnostic credited to repair, its llms.txt prescribes agents' source preference, conflict handling and booking routes, so it was set aside and its claims were not relied on.”
“Its page advertises same-day Westside repair and an $89 diagnostic, but its dispatch and after-hours policies contradict each other and its license and BBB checks are unverified.”
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.
