Lists of "47 AI ranking factors" are marketing. What holds up are five supports you can check independently.

1. An extractable core on your own domain. 2. A consistent entity across the site, registers and directories. 3. Independent mentions (press, association, client - not only self-PR). 4. Technical reachability of that core. 5. Freshness: dates, versions, withdrawn services.

What does not hold: a tool score as truth, a single prompt as proof, the claim that schema alone is enough. Schema is a signal, not a passport.
