By model

How each assistant handled Non Invasive Fat Reduction questions.

Reading the 111 answers model by model shows how differently the three assistants treat the same non invasive fat reduction questions. On the most consequential behavior — whether to send the buyer to a professional at all — the rate ranged from 75.7% (ChatGPT) down to 24.3% (Gemini), a 51-point gap on an identical question set.

Across the 37 non invasive fat reduction answers it produced, ChatGPT recommended hiring a professional in 75.7% of them and suggested a DIY approach first 5.4% of the time. It named a specific provider in 0% of answers (about 0 distinct providers per answer) and included price or cost information 8.1% of the time. ChatGPT asked a clarifying question before answering in 64.9% of cases, warned about red flags or scams in 8.1%, and told the buyer to verify credentials in 40.5%, averaging 455 words per answer. On the remaining cues it told the buyer to check reviews in 10.8%, pointed to case studies or a portfolio in 35.1%, and framed the choice around local proximity in 10.8%; a selection-criteria checklist appeared in 43.2% of its answers and a recommendation to gather multiple quotes in 2.7%.

Taken together, ChatGPT is the assistant most likely to route a non invasive fat reduction buyer to a professional (75.7%) and Gemini the least (24.3%). ChatGPT produced the longest answers, at 455 words on average. Specific providers were named most often by Gemini (5.4%) — even there, roughly one answer in 19 carried a name.

Where they disagree

The behaviors where the choice of model changes the answer.

The divergence index for this study is 20.3 points — the average distance between the most and least likely model across the coded behaviors. The gaps below are where which assistant a non invasive fat reduction buyer happens to ask matters most:

  • Asks a clarifying question: from 5.4% (Gemini) to 73% (Claude) — a 68-point spread.
  • Recommends hiring a professional: from 24.3% (Gemini) to 75.7% (ChatGPT) — a 51-point spread.
  • Tells the buyer to verify credentials: from 5.4% (Gemini) to 40.5% (ChatGPT) — a 35-point spread.
  • Mentions case studies or portfolio: from 5.4% (Gemini) to 35.1% (ChatGPT) — a 30-point spread.
  • Gives selection criteria: from 18.9% (Gemini) to 43.2% (ChatGPT) — a 24-point spread.

The widest single gap — asks a clarifying question, 68 points — means a non invasive fat reduction 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 non invasive fat reduction market.

Where they agree

The points of near-consensus in Non Invasive Fat Reduction.

On other behaviors the three models move almost in lockstep — the points of near-consensus for non invasive fat reduction, where all three landed within a few points of each other:

  • Suggests a DIY approach first: 2.7%–5.4% across all three (a 3-point spread).
  • Names a specific provider: 0%–5.4% across all three (a 5-point spread).
  • Gives price or cost information: 2.7%–8.1% across all three (a 5-point spread).
  • Recommends multiple quotes: 0%–8.1% across all three (a 8-point spread).

Measured question by question, the three assistants coded a response the same way most consistently on "names a specific provider" (identical coding in 94.6% of questions) and least consistently on "asks a clarifying question" (18.9%).

Trust signals

How well the models protect the non invasive fat reduction buyer.

Beyond whether to hire, the rubric codes how carefully each assistant protects the non invasive fat reduction buyer once a decision is made. Telling the buyer to check reviews or ratings appeared in 6.3% of answers on average. Verifying credentials or certifications appeared in 27.9%. Warning about red flags or scams appeared in 15.3%.

On structuring the decision, a selection-criteria checklist showed up in 32.4% of answers on average and a recommendation to gather multiple quotes in 3.6%. The single least-reproduced protective signal for non invasive fat reduction is "recommends multiple quotes" at 3.6% 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 Non Invasive Fat Reduction providers?

For service providers the decisive question is whether these systems name anyone at all. Across 111 non invasive fat reduction answers, a specific provider was named in 1.8% of responses on average — roughly 0 distinct providers per answer. In practice the assistants behave far more as an explanatory layer than as a referral engine for non invasive fat reduction: visibility comes from being the reasoning a model reproduces, not from being the named recommendation.

The question set

What these 37 Non Invasive Fat Reduction questions cover.

The 37 questions behind every percentage on this page were drawn from real non invasive fat reduction (healthcare services; buyer hiring decisions for this specific service) buyer journeys. Each was put to all 3 models once, with identical wording, so the rates above describe how the assistants handled this exact non invasive fat reduction 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 37 answers in which the behavior appeared at least once — not a confidence score. Because each model answered every question exactly once on 2026-07-06, the figures describe this specific non invasive fat reduction 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.

37 standardized buyer questions per industry, one response per model per question (ChatGPT (gpt-5-mini), Claude (claude-sonnet-5), Gemini (gemini-3-flash-preview)), collected 2026-07-06, coded against a fixed 12-behavior rubric with human QA.
