IACT

"The IACT was conceived in the summer of 2006 in response to a growing demand for a centralized organization that would provide unbiased and cohesive information for the primary professional." That is how IACT of Gig Harbor, WA introduces itself. To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, though, it is barely visible: it scores 3.1 out of 10.

What holds it back is structured data describing the business, credibility markers like credentials or reviews, a heading structure that lays out what it offers, the first things an answer engine looks for.

AI crawlers have visited the site once in our tracking, so the engines are already looking. Off the page there is almost nothing to corroborate it: the domain does not yet read as established, AI engines do not yet recognise it as a distinct business, there is no press coverage to draw on. That half of the score is earned elsewhere on the web, not on the site itself.
