Know what AI
tells your market.

Buyers are asking AI about your category, your product, and your competition. We make those answers visible, measurable, and useful.

01 / THE SHIFT

AI is now a market surface.

Search rankings show who gets found. AI answers reveal who gets considered, how products are described, and which facts buyers carry into the room.

LRG LABS builds evidence-led research systems for this new layer of the market. We test real buyer questions across models, verify the claims against primary sources, and show vendors exactly where perception and reality diverge.

02 / WHAT WE MEASURE

From opaque answers
to decision-grade signals.

Not sentiment. Not synthetic personas. Observable claims, tested repeatedly and anchored to evidence.

A

Market presence

Who appears when buyers ask for a shortlist—and who vanishes when the model starts researching.

B

Claim integrity

Every product, pricing, and compliance claim is decomposed and judged against a verified record.

64%didn’t hold up
C

Information decay

When prices, capabilities, or policies change, we trace which models keep repeating the old reality.

D

Competitive substitution

See which alternatives enter the answer, what AI says about them, and whether those comparisons are defensible.

“The assistants shaping your buyers’ shortlists misprice competitors’ add-ons, invent plan gates, and cite pages that say no such thing.”

03 / CURRENT PROOF OF CONCEPT

The answer layer,
made inspectable.

Our helpdesk pilot turns hundreds of model outputs into an audit that a product, marketing, or competitive intelligence team can actually act on.

03

A vendor recommended in 20/20 memory-only runs, then absent once research began.
