An assistant doesn't answer from memory: it assembles the answer from sources. Below are the sources it actually used in your niche for specific buyer questions. Check whether your company is described on these sites.

If your company isn't described on any of these domains, an assistant building its answer from them has nothing to name you from. That makes the task concrete: review these sites and get accurate information about your company published there.
Check that your site lists the cargo types you accept, with weight, size and packaging limits. Compare those pages with the sources the assistant cites. A vague "we ship anything" line can contradict your real terms and gets repeated as fact.
Write the questions shippers actually ask when choosing a carrier, run each one several times, and record which companies, links and terms the assistant names. Track full-truckload and less-than-truckload questions separately: they surface different companies.
Note the role the assistant gives each company it names and where that description comes from. Then check how your own site explains who arranges the shipment and who moves it. A name without a role is not enough to compare offers.
Compare the temperature range, equipment and monitoring process on your service page with the wording in the answer. Check which cargo those conditions apply to. Log the incorrect claim separately from the mention itself.
Reviews on independent platforms are one of the sources assistants read, especially for questions about reliability and damage claims. Reviews that name specific services and lanes carry the most weight. The source map above shows which review sites appear in your niche.
Directories answer comparison questions directly: several companies and their terms side by side. A carrier site usually describes only itself. An accurate, complete profile on the directories the assistant cites is often the fastest way into the answer.
Not necessarily exact rates, but the pricing logic: what the cost depends on, which surcharges exist and how quotes are calculated. Assistants answering cost questions look for pages that explain this plainly. A page that only says "request a quote" gives them nothing to cite.
Yes. Assistants often answer lane- and region-specific questions and need an explicit list of where you operate. List the regions and routes you actually serve in plain text on a crawlable page, not only on a map image.
Monthly is a reasonable baseline, with a repeat after any major change to your site or directory profiles. Answers vary between runs, so compare several repeats rather than a single check. One run is a snapshot, not a trend.
Ads, where an assistant shows them, are separate from the answer. The answer itself is assembled from sources you can influence: your site, directories, reviews and industry publications. That work is measured over time, not promised.
