The Authority Score™
What Is the Authority Score™?
The Authority Score™ is calculated through the Authority Audit™ using the Authority Framework™. Sabra AI Solutions delivers the assessment, helping service businesses understand how clearly their positioning, proof, expertise, visibility, engagement, and customer experience support trust with customers and AI systems.
Why Authority Determines Which Businesses Get Chosen
When customers need a service, they rarely analyze every option in detail.
Instead, they look for signals that indicate credibility.
Reviews.
Expertise.
Clear positioning.
Visible reputation.
If your business demonstrates those signals clearly, customers trust you faster.
If those signals are weak, customers continue searching.
The Authority Score™ helps businesses understand how strongly those signals appear online.
