Entity Integrity Monitor

Seven disambiguation questions asked of three model families, graded against the documented two-entity ground truth. Converts the paper's inference into verbatim, per-model evidence.

No probe run yet. Run one to document how each model handles the roadside-vs-insurer split, ownership, state footprint and contact numbers.

Misattribution history

Misattribution = answers graded as conflated or tagged with an entity/product/ownership/contact/footprint error, divided by graded answers, counting each answer once. AI grading requires review; legacy runs have no pinned reference or model revisions, so changes are descriptive rather than controlled remediation proof.

No completed probe history.

AI Surface Hygiene — both domains

Direct fetch of robots.txt, /llm-info, llms.txt and homepage schema for nrma.com.au and mynrma.com.au. Deterministic — anything the edge refuses is marked unconfirmed, never guessed.

This checks published crawl policy, not server/CDN logs, visit frequency or actual WAF blocking. Verify agents against provider-published IP ranges or documented forward-confirmed DNS, not geography alone. Re-check historical audits to apply the current bot taxonomy.

No check recorded yet.

Mentioned vs recommended

Evidence confidence

The paper's own caveats, and how this platform treats each one.

Vendor-sourced data
Granular visibility figures come from Somantra, an AEO vendor. They measure mentions/citations, not sales, and monthly counts swing with sampling (ChatGPT share 30.8% Jan vs 1.5% Feb 2026). Directional, not audited market share.
Inference vs documented
Entity confusion in actual LLM outputs was strong inference in the paper. The Entity Integrity Monitor on this page converts it into documented, graded evidence per model.
Unconfirmed technicals
robots.txt AI-bot rules and llms.txt presence needed a direct check. The Surface Hygiene audit performs it and reports anything its edge cannot reach as unconfirmed — never guessed.
Moving target
RG 234 was updated June 2026 to cover AI advertising; ChatGPT began citing brand homepages far more from mid-2026. Re-benchmark quarterly.
Check entity identity before recommendation

Interpretation

Confirm which legal organisation issues the product, which organisation provides roadside assistance, and where cover applies.

Do not infer

Do not merge NRMA Insurance, the NRMA membership organisation, IAG group results and third-party travel underwriting.

Next useful step

Prioritise entity conflation and product eligibility errors before optimising rankings.
