When you pick a city and a kind of business, you will see how many local businesses ChatGPT never named, who it named instead, which pages its answers linked to, and the exact questions we asked.
The number on each button shows how many of the businesses we checked were never named.
In every trade and neighborhood, we started from the businesses with a website that appear first on Google Maps: as many as ten in Miami and as many as twenty in New York, 1,197 in all. Every question is a phrase people type into ChatGPT. DataForSEO measured its monthly volume for the phrase itself on October 22 and 23, 2026, and we then added the neighborhood. That made 98 lists and 776 questions, asked of live ChatGPT on October 22 and 23, 2026, one run per question. A business counts as named when its name or its website appears in the answer. A link counts as a business's own site when it leads to the website of one of the businesses we checked, so booking platforms and directories do not count. We do not publish the names of the businesses ChatGPT left out.
