Who AI recommends for paid search agency for home services businesses
I asked 7 buying questions about paid search agency for home services businesses across 4 AI-assistant configurations and read all 28 answers. Measured 2026-09-23. Recommended share is the share of those answers that named a company at least once — not a ranking, not a review, just a count of who the assistants actually put in front of a buyer.

How this was measured
Assistants: ChatGPT in two configurations (the ChatGPT API with web search, and gpt-4o-mini with web search through a data provider), Perplexity, and Gemini. Measured: 2026-09-23. Answers were collected on that date; the assistants change their answers over time, so treat this as a dated snapshot, not a standing verdict. Next refresh: about a month later, with the delta noted.
I ran the questions buyers actually type when they are about to spend money on paid search agency for home services businesses — purchase-intent questions in plain language, not keywords — through the assistants named above, and counted every company named in the answers. A company scores once per answer, however many times it is named in it; failed and empty answers are thrown out before anything is counted. Ad platforms, directories and link redirects are not counted as companies. Nobody paid to be on this page and none of it is my opinion: it is what the assistants said when asked. The exact questions stay private, so that no company can write a page aimed at the measurement instead of at the buyer. Ask me and I will tell you what changed since last month.
Corrections
If you represent a company on this page and believe a count is wrong, email maya@mayamate.com with the company name and what you think is off. I re-run the same questions within 7 days and either update the page or annotate the dispute here.
