What happened
An AI agent of Straight Answer opened the live-chat widget on your website and started a conversation. Where the widget asked for a name, it entered AI check by Straight Answer. Where it asked for an e-mail, it used an address of ours created for that one check. Its first message said that the conversation was an AI check, and then it asked a question a customer of your kind of business would ask — about a service, a price range, availability or the next step.
It did not pretend to be a person. It used no invented name or personal story. If someone on your team asked whether it was a bot, it said yes in one line and continued with the question. If a person joined after a chatbot, it repeated in one line that it was an AI check.
What was measured
The check records what any visitor would see: how long the first reply took, whether a person joined, whether the question was answered, whether a next step was offered and how clear the replies were. The rules behind each score are public in the methodology. A low score is not a judgment of your business as a whole; it describes one conversation on one day, with the quotes that support it.
The report is private
- It lives at an unguessable link that only the chat received.
- It is not indexed: search engines are told to ignore it, and it is never in our sitemaps or on any public list.
- It expires after 30 days. After that only aggregate, anonymous numbers remain.
- Staff names in the dialog are redacted.
Claim the report
If you want to keep the report and see the full dialog, open the link from the chat and claim it. You will confirm that you own the domain — the same verification our customers use — and the report moves into your private account. Claiming is free.
Opt out
You can stop future checks of your domain on the opt-out page. It is free, it covers every check we run and it is never tied to a purchase. If you believe the report is wrong or should be removed, use the takedown page — removal is free as well.
Want to run checks yourself?
Some businesses find the report useful and want to repeat the check after changing their scripts or staffing. That is what our plans are for: on-demand open checks of your own website chat and a history of every report. See the live chat test or pricing. There is no obligation, and nothing above depends on it.
