Key takeaways
What this check tells you
Concentration
In Best Luxury Hotels, if AI recommended all tracked properties equally the top 3 would get about 14.3% of mentions, but Rhum Corner at the Algonquin Resort, Kingsbrae Arms, and Delta Hotels by Marriott Beausejour capture 35.9%.
Concentration
Best Historical Attractions shows the same pattern at an even wider gap: Kings Landing, Village Historique Acadien, and Fort Beausejour take 34% of mentions against an even-split expectation of 11.5%.
Movement
Best Local Experiences shows the highest entity turnover tracked, with 58 moves across 32 entities between the September 3 and September 6 checks.
Distinctiveness
Saint John City Market appears among the top 3 picks in six separate categories, including Best Local or Traditional Restaurants, Best Rainy-Day Attractions, Best Food Experiences, Best Day Trips, and Best Local Experiences.
Lead finding
New Brunswick posts a 30% distinctiveness score—well above the 21% network average—yet AI models completely overlook food and drink travelers.
AI descriptions of New Brunswick center heavily on Acadian culture, with supporting nods to budget-friendly travel, dramatic landscapes, romance, seafood, and coastal life. Sentiment is overwhelmingly positive at 97% across 234 rated mentions, signaling strong favorability wherever the destination is discussed. However, a clear ThemeGap emerges: food and drink travelers are underrepresented despite the destination's cuisine-related supporting themes. Cross-model agreement sits at just 6%, only slightly above the 5% network average, showing AI assistants still describe New Brunswick inconsistently. Notably, the destination was not recommended or mentioned in any of the 12 tracked indirect questions.
