Question-level agreement
How often all measured models received the same binary code.
Agreement is calculated question by question for each behavior. A high value can coexist with a low behavior prevalence; it means the models usually agreed on whether the behavior appeared.

By model
How each assistant handled Martial Arts School questions.
Reading the 45 answers model by model shows how differently the three assistants treat the same martial arts school questions. On the most consequential behavior — whether to send the buyer to a professional at all — the rate ranged from 46.7% (ChatGPT) down to 26.7% (Gemini), a 20-point gap on an identical question set.

It named a specific provider in 0% of answers (about 0 distinct providers per answer) and included price or cost information 13.3% of the time. ChatGPT asked a clarifying question before answering in 53.3% of cases, warned about red flags or scams in 33.3%, and told the buyer to verify credentials in 40%, averaging 512 words per answer. On the remaining cues it told the buyer to check reviews in 26.7%, pointed to case studies or a portfolio in 6.7%, and framed the choice around local proximity in 33.3%; a selection-criteria checklist appeared in 66.7% of its answers and a recommendation to gather multiple quotes in 26.7%.

Where they disagree
The behaviors where the choice of model changes the answer.
Question-level model disagreement is 20.4% — the average pairwise rate at which models received different binary codes across questions and behaviors. The observed rate spreads below are a separate measure showing where which assistant a martial arts school buyer happens to ask matters most:
- Asks a clarifying question: from 0% (Gemini) to 53.3% (ChatGPT) — a 53-point spread.
- Tells the buyer to verify credentials: from 6.7% (Gemini) to 40% (ChatGPT) — a 33-point spread.
- Tells the buyer to check reviews: from 0% (Gemini) to 26.7% (ChatGPT) — a 27-point spread.
- Recommends multiple quotes: from 0% (Gemini) to 26.7% (ChatGPT) — a 27-point spread.
- Gives price or cost information: from 6.7% (Claude) to 33.3% (Gemini) — a 27-point spread.
The widest single gap — asks a clarifying question, 53 points — means a martial arts school buyer can receive materially different guidance on the same question depending only on which assistant they happen to open, so any visibility strategy built on a single model's behavior describes only part of the martial arts school market.
Where they agree
The points of near-consensus in Martial Arts School.
On other behaviors the three models move almost in lockstep — the points of near-consensus for martial arts school, where all three landed within a few points of each other:
- Mentions case studies or portfolio: 6.7% across all three models.
- Warns about red flags or scams: 26.7%–33.3% across all three (a 7-point spread).
- Names a specific provider: 0%–6.7% across all three (a 7-point spread).
- Recommends hiring a professional: 26.7%–46.7% across all three (a 20-point spread).
Measured question by question, the three assistants coded a response the same way most consistently on "mentions case studies or portfolio" (identical coding in 100% of questions) and least consistently on "asks a clarifying question" (33.3%).

Trust signals
How well the models protect the martial arts school buyer.
Beyond whether to hire, the rubric codes how carefully each assistant protects the martial arts school buyer once a decision is made. Telling the buyer to check reviews or ratings appeared in 11.1% of answers on average. Verifying credentials or certifications appeared in 22.2%. Warning about red flags or scams appeared in 31.1%.
On structuring the decision, a selection-criteria checklist showed up in 64.4% of answers on average and a recommendation to gather multiple quotes in 13.3%. The single least-reproduced protective signal for martial arts school is "tells the buyer to check reviews" at 11.1% on average — the clearest opening for content that supplies it, since the models are not yet reliably surfacing that guidance on their own.
Referral behavior
Do AI models name Martial Arts School providers?
For service providers the decisive question is whether these systems name anyone at all. Across 45 martial arts school answers, a specific provider was named in 4.5% of responses on average — roughly 0.2 distinct providers per answer. In practice the assistants behave far more as an explanatory layer than as a referral engine for martial arts school: visibility comes from being the reasoning a model reproduces, not from being the named recommendation.
The question set
What these 15 Martial Arts School questions cover.
The 15 questions behind every percentage on this page form a frozen martial arts school (fitness services; buyer hiring decisions for this specific service) buyer-intent benchmark. Each was put to all 3 models once, with identical wording, so the rates above describe how the assistants handled this exact martial arts school question set — not a general prior or a hand-picked subset. The full list is shown earlier on this page; the coded percentages are what those specific questions produced.
How to read this
A note on the numbers.
A percentage here is the share of a model's 15 answers in which the behavior appeared at least once — not a confidence score. Because each model answered every question exactly once on 2026-07-04, the figures describe this specific martial arts school question set and snapshot rather than a general prior. The full protocol and coding rubric are documented in the study methodology.
Methodology
A controlled snapshot, documented end to end.
15 frozen benchmark questions, one expected response per model per question (ChatGPT API (gpt-5-mini), Claude API (claude-sonnet-5), Gemini API (gemini-3-flash-preview)), collected 2026-07-04 and coded against a fixed 12-behavior rubric. The pipeline validates the schema, recomputes aggregates and reports consistency issues. AI outputs vary with model version, location and time, so the figures describe this edition's exact sample and measurement window. Read the full methodology →
