Daily Dumplings visibility log

A small dumpling shop in Hollywood, Florida, measured the same way we measure ourselves. November 9 2026: named in 93 of 179 AI answers. Heard of You, the same day: 1 of 276.

Daily Dumplings is a small business in Hollywood, Florida that makes frozen dumplings by hand and sells them at a farmers market and for delivery. We track it with the same runner, the same rules and the same honesty as our own log (/research/heard-of-you-visibility-log). It is not a client.

Two logs side by side make one thing clear: the method works the same for both, and the results could not be more different.

Side by side, November 9 2026

The weekly full run, same day, same four assistants (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity), three runs per question, questions that name the business left out.

The rows

| Run | Date | Answers | Named | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Day 0, daily questions | October 31 2026 | 20 | 5 (ChatGPT 3, Gemini 2, Claude 0, Perplexity 0) | The 5 daily questions, one run each, before anything changed. Details in the day 0 case study (/research/daily-dumplings-case-study). |
| Weekly full | November 9 2026 | 179 | 93 | 15 questions in English, Spanish and Russian, three runs each. English 55 of 119, Spanish 20 of 36, Russian 18 of 24. |
| Daily questions | November 11 2026 | 40 | 19 (ChatGPT 7 of 10, Gemini 6 of 10, Perplexity 6 of 10, Claude 0 of 10) | The daily set had grown to 10 questions by then. |

Next published row: day 30, in early December, next to ours.

What changed on the shop's site

Only what is on record:
- October 31: a Spanish version of the site went live, next to English and Russian.
- November 1: a khinkali page and a Fort Lauderdale and Broward delivery page, in all three languages, built only from facts already on the site. Before that, Meta's Muse treated both questions as restaurant questions (write-up (/research/what-metas-muse-recommends)).

On November 9 the assistants cited the shop's own pages again and again: the English home page in 50 answers, the Fort Lauderdale delivery page in 42, the market page in 17, the pelmeni page in 12, and the khinkali page in 7.

Where it is still missing
- Claude named the shop once in 45 answers. For local food questions it leans on review sites, maps listings and delivery apps, which is where the shop is thinnest.
- Two questions got nothing at all: "pierogi near Aventura FL" and "dumpling catering South Florida", 0 of 12 each. The site has no page for either.
- "best pelmeni in Miami" named it 4 times in 12. "Best" questions pull in restaurant guides.

Why the shop gets named and we don't

The shop's site answers the questions people actually type, one page per question: what is sold, where it delivers, the pickup spots, the prices. The assistants search the web, land on those pages and quote them.

Heard of You is a new service in a crowded category. The answers to founder questions come from lists and comparison pages written by other companies, and we are on almost none of them yet. Our own pages are not the problem. Not being on anyone else's is.

That is the same gap we look for in every free check (/check).

Nothing on this page was paid for. No paid listings, no review swaps, no fake mentions. Numbers come straight from the runner; questions that name the business are left out of every count.

Questions

Is Daily Dumplings a client?

No. It is a small food business we track with the same runner and the same rules as our own log, so there is a second, very different line to compare against. Nobody paid for anything on this page.

Why does a dumpling shop get named and Heard of You does not?

The shop's own site answers the exact questions people ask, in plain sentences, in three languages, with a page per area and per dish. Heard of You launched on October 31 and almost no page outside our own site mentions us yet.

Are the two numbers comparable?

Same runner, same day, same four assistants, three runs per question, branded questions left out. The questions are different, of course: local food questions for the shop, questions a founder would ask for us.
