Criteria Maps

Observed buyer requirements before the first vendor in source answers captured on 22 and 23 September 2026. 149 valid source answers from 150 scheduled runs. These observations are separate from the original Index release figures.

Each vendor figure uses the median across the five most named vendors in the frozen category release, including zero counts. Adjacency compares distinct source answers for the same criterion; page coverage compares criteria for the same page state. Medians are descriptive and have no confidence interval.

Prepared by the Broadcastwell team. Team review: in progress. Zero analyst verified criteria.

The AI written RFP; Study DOI 10.5281/zenodo.23271935. Source DOI 10.5281/zenodo.22907695. CC BY 4.0.

Observed source answer frequencies. Wilson intervals describe the calculation, not independent population inference. Repeated runs are not independent performance tests. Page comparisons cover only the dated page and stated scope. An unstated claim is not an absent product feature.

Any named company may request one no-cost re-run at index@broadcastwell.com; both results are published.

Checklist Audit $490. Every figure comes from the published method, v1.1.
