AI Recommendation Report · Bloom & Wild · 14 July 2026
AI names Bloom & Wild, but it is not the business AI recommends first.
Executive summary
198 answers · 60 questions
Across the 198 AI recommendations we analysed, your business appeared in 27. Your largest competitor, 1-800-Flowers, appeared in 52.
To decide who to recommend, AI read 697 sources. 49 of those citations were Bloom & Wild.
Of the 60 buying questions we put to 5 AI assistants, AI recommends you for 26, names you without recommending you for 3 and hands 30 straight to a competitor. One question is owned by nobody yet — the cheapest ground on the map.
Your AI Trust Score is 48 out of 100. AI is starting to trust you.
The quickest opportunity is “cheapest flowers delivered same day”, where Teleflora currently takes 3 of the 4 answers. A category buying guide is the asset that competes for it.
Complete the first 5 actions and you are working on up to 79 of the 198 AI responses measured in this report.
ChatGPT did not answer any of the 60 questions we put to it, so it is not represented in this report. Everything else in this report completed normally.
In 125 of the 152 buying questions where AI chose freely, it never mentioned Bloom & Wild once — and it named 1-800-Flowers in 52 of them.
Counted across 198 AI answers to 60 of your buyers’ real questions.
The problem
AI is telling your customers something wrong about Bloom & Wild.
We put 60 of your buyers’ real questions to five AI assistants and read 198 answers. AI named 1-800-Flowers 52 times. It named you 27 times.
Who AI actually recommends
You are fourth of six.
Counted across 198 answers to 60 questions your buyers actually ask. Counts, not percentages: a share-of-voice chart would round zero up into something that looks survivable.
Every assistant was asked all 60 questions except Google AI (20), which was asked only your highest-intent buying questions — the ones where a Google AI Overview actually appears. Its answers are counted against what it was asked, never against 60.

Create a Flower Care Guide that positions Bloom & Wild expertise
AI currently cites Reddit and gardening sites for flower care questions instead of your site. A dedicated, detailed care page becomes a source AI reads and cites directly, converting 'how do I keep flowers alive' questions into Bloom & Wild recommendations.
Targets the 89 answers where 1-800-Flowers was recommended instead of you. Directly addresses the critical gap: AI answers flower care questions without naming you, despite your expertise.
- 01Write 1,500–2,000 words covering: water changes, stem trimming, temperature, light, vase prep, and common problems. Include your specific advice for letterbox-delivered flowers.
- 02Embed a FAQ section answering: 'Why are my flowers drooping?', 'Can I save damaged flowers?', 'How long do [specific flower] last?' Link each answer back to your product pages.
- 03Add a 'Bloom & Wild Difference' section: explain how your flowers arrive and why your care advice is tailored to your delivery method.
- 04Include high-quality photos of your own flowers at different stages to show authenticity.
- 05Publish under /flower-care/ and link from your homepage footer and product pages.
- 06Submit to Reddit's r/gardening and r/flowers with a comment linking to your guide when people ask about flower longevity.
The buying questions this affects
- “AI answers flower care questions without naming you, despite your expertise — When customers ask how to keep flowers alive or what to do when they arrive damaged, AI has no Bloom & Wild page to cite, so it defaults to Reddit posts and general gardening sites instead.”

AI Trust Score
AI is starting to trust you
How much evidence an AI has to confidently recommend you. Four components, each counted from the answers in this report — and each one you can move.
Does AI know who you are, and is what it knows correct?
Named in 32 of 35 answers to questions that ask about you directly. 2 of 190 things AI said about you look wrong. 1 of 4 assistants said they have never heard of you.
How to move it
Publish one page that states plainly who you are, what you sell and who you serve — in the words your buyers actually use. AI cannot repeat what you have never said.
Do the sources AI actually reads mention you?
Your site was cited 49 times across 138 searched answers. Sources naming 1-800-Flowers were cited 611 times.
How to move it
Get named on the sources AI actually reads. They are listed, in order, in the Citation Gap section of this report. Being in them is the whole game.
When AI names you, does it have anything concrete to say?

How to move it
Give AI something concrete and correct to repeat: outcomes, numbers, credentials, guarantees. A brand with nothing specific to say gets listed, not recommended.
