AI Recommendation Report · Hygglo · 14 July 2026
AI names Hygglo, but it is not the business AI recommends first.
Executive summary
258 answers · 60 questions
Across the 258 AI recommendations we analysed, your business appeared in 77. Your largest competitor, Fat Llama, appeared in 50.
To decide who to recommend, AI read 879 sources. 69 of those citations were Hygglo.
Of the 60 buying questions we put to 5 AI assistants, AI recommends you for 19, names you without recommending you for 4 and hands 35 straight to a competitor. 2 questions are owned by nobody yet — the cheapest ground on the map.
Your AI Trust Score is 41 out of 100. AI has thin grounds to recommend you.
The quickest opportunity is “where to rent drones and photography gear”, where Fat Llama currently takes 3 of the 5 answers. A category buying guide is the asset that competes for it.
Complete the first 5 actions and you are working on up to 115 of the 258 AI responses measured in this report.
AI named Fat Llama 50 times and Hygglo 77 times across the 258 answers we measured.
Counted across 258 AI answers to 60 of your buyers’ real questions.
The problem
AI rarely recommends Hygglo, and often picks a competitor instead.
We put 60 of your buyers’ real questions to five AI assistants and read 258 answers. AI named you 77 times. It named you 77 times.
Who AI actually recommends
You are the business AI names most.
Counted across 258 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 pricing transparency page comparing rental costs to retail
AI cannot recommend Hygglo when answering cost questions because it has no page stating prices. This is the single most-cited blocker across 131 competitor recommendations. A clear /rental-costs-vs-buying page gives AI a source to cite when someone asks 'how much does it cost to rent equipment' and positions Hygglo as transparent on pricing.
Targets the 131 answers where AI recommended Fat Llama instead of Hygglo—many triggered by cost questions AI could not answer with Hygglo data.
- 01Pull top 10 rental categories from your current listings (cameras, projectors, tools, drones, etc.).
- 02For each category, state: average rental price per day/week, retail cost of equivalent item, and break-even point (when renting becomes cheaper than buying).
- 03Add 3–5 worked examples: 'A £2,000 camera costs £45/day to rent. The break-even point is 44 days of use.'
- 04Include a comparison table: columns for Equipment, One-Day Rental, One-Week Rental, Buy New, Break-Even Usage Days.
- 05Add internal links to your top 5 category pages (camera, projector, power tools, drones).
- 06Publish and submit URL to Google Search Console.

AI has thin grounds to recommend 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 39 of 44 answers to questions that ask about you directly. 0 of 225 things AI said about you look wrong. 3 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 69 times across 198 searched answers. Sources naming Fat Llama were cited 576 times.
How to move it
