Read the method before the headline
| Check | Question to ask |
|---|---|
| Scope | Which questions, locations and AI surfaces were included? |
| Sample | How many readable answers were captured, and what was missing? |
| Method | Was this a consumer interface, an API or a test fixture? |
| Conclusion | Does the claim stay within what the study actually observed? |
These are Carqo review methods and educational guides. They are not a live market index or measured customer results.
