Where AI gets its answers

Before an engine names a company, it reads the web. These are the sites each engine cited most in its 60 answers for Australia, by the share of answers citing them.

Two things stand out. ChatGPT leans on myagedcare.gov.au for 70% of its answers, so a company not listed there is largely invisible on ChatGPT. Gemini cites company sites directly: boltonclarke.com.au tops its list, so a company’s own pages decide whether it is named.

What to do with your row

Most recommendedTop 3 on an engine

Open your full report, then take the “Top 3 in AI answers” badge. It names the engine, it links back here, and it is free. Then keep the spot: Findrix tracks all three engines for your company and tells you when a rival moves in.

MentionedNamed, not recommended

Findrix shows you, answer by answer, who took the recommendation instead of you and which sites got them there. Your site becomes a numbered list of edits, and the next scan confirms each one.

Not namedMissing from all 180 answers

Findrix runs your buyers’ questions for your company and shows what AI says instead of you, with every wrong fact and the correction written for you.

What “Top 3 in AI answers” means

Top 3 in AI answers · Findrix AI Rankings · ChatGPT · Residential aged care providers in Australia · October 2026Top 3 in AI answersFindrixResidential aged care providers in AustraliaFindrix AI Rankings · ChatGPT · Oct 2026

A company gets the badge when it is in the top 3 on any single engine, by how many of that engine’s answers recommend it, not just name it. The badge names the engine, so a company can hold it on Gemini and not on ChatGPT. In Australia that is Bolton Clarke, Regis and Anglicare on ChatGPT. Bolton Clarke, Southern Cross Care and Uniting on Gemini. Bolton Clarke, Southern Cross Care and Opal HealthCare on Google AI Mode. 9 badges, 6 companies. A badge holder confirms its website inside the report and puts the badge on its site, and it links back to this page.

The 60 questions we asked

Every company was measured against the same 60 questions, asked the way a buyer types them, with no company name in the question. Grouped by how the question is asked: four kinds.

Use case (the job is named)

1 question
  • Who are Australia's big corporate-run nursing home operators?

Alternatives (excluding the well-known)

the question asks for options outside the market leaders1 question
  • Australia-wide, which aged care groups run small specialist dementia homes instead of general nursing homes?

Criterion (price, reviews, support, integration)

a plain category question with one qualifier5 questions
  • Looking for nursing home groups in New South Wales with a secure memory support wing for my husband.
  • We're after aged care groups in Adelaide with reasonably priced standard rooms for my in-laws.
  • Across Australia, which of the big aged care operators put their room prices and fees clearly on their websites?

+ 2 more questions in this group.

Other phrasing

53 questions
  • Any aged care groups across New South Wales that let a couple stay together in the same room?
  • Who are the not-for-profit groups running aged care homes all over New South Wales?
  • Which aged care groups in Sydney have Cantonese-speaking carers for my grandmother?

+ 50 more questions in this group.

How we measure

Each of the 60 questions was asked once to ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Mode in October 2026: 180 answers. We read every answer and record which companies it names. A company’s share is the part of answers that name it. Different spellings of one company are merged into one row.

Left out: companies outside Australia, and names that aren’t residential aged care providers. A name AI gave without a website we could find is listed without a profile.

One run per question means a single answer moves a company at the bottom of the table by a point. Treat differences of 1 to 2% as noise and the top 20 as stable.

Questions about this ranking

Why isn’t my company listed?

Either no engine named it in the 180 answers we read, or it was named and we could not match it to a website. Search the list above. If it was named, its full report is ready. If it was never named, Findrix shows what AI says when buyers ask about residential aged care providers, which rivals it names instead, and a ranked list of fixes: the page, the edit, and the next scan ticks it off. It starts with the 7-day trial.

What is in the full report?

Everything we collected about the company: its position on each of ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Mode, recommended or only mentioned, its average position in the answer and what AI says about it word for word. It is free and open to anyone, no login. The “Top 3 in AI answers” badge goes on the company’s site when any engine puts it in its top 3.

Why would I subscribe if I am already listed?

This page is one snapshot. Findrix is where you control and grow your AI visibility over time: your own question set, 60 to 180 questions by plan, tracked for you and your rivals. On every answer you see recommended, only mentioned, or a rival, and which sites earned that rival the spot. Wrong facts come with the correction email written for you. Your site becomes a numbered plan: which page, what to change, confirmed by the next scan. A PDF report for you and your team. It starts with the 7-day trial.

Can I correct or remove my company’s listing?

Use Request a correction at the bottom of the page: we check the change against the answers and fix the listing. For anything else, write to us there too and we will look at it against your website.
