Which factors this industry fails most often
The rubric scores 19 factors. This table shows 15 of them: the rest were counted on fewer than 30 audits in this industry, which is too few to publish a rate from. A factor counts as failed here when a site scores below 50 out of 100 on it. The last column is how many audits each rate was calculated from. Media Accessibility is not scored on every kind of page: a rankings table or a paginated index has no question to answer and no image to caption. That row therefore leaves out every audit of a kind of page the factor does not apply to, and every audit that did not record a kind of page we could read. Every other row counts every audit in this industry that scored the factor.

Where InsurTech / Insurance diverges from everyone else
Relative to the whole corpus, this industry is distinctively weak on AI Discoverability (+6 points), Mobile Optimization (+6 points), AI Readability Score (+6 points).
It is distinctively strong on Media Accessibility (-9 points), Heading Hierarchy (-9 points), Page Performance Indicators (-7 points).
AI Discoverability: fails on 42% of the 143 InsurTech / Insurance audits it was measured on
Rescoped to on-page machine-readability signals (semantic HTML, licensing clarity). The dead ai-plugin manifest check was removed and llms.txt stays informational only, because no major engine reads it.
Mobile Optimization: fails on 20% of the 143 InsurTech / Insurance audits it was measured on
No AI-engine evidence exists for mobile signals; this is classic search hygiene (Google page experience) retained at a modest weight.
AI Readability Score: fails on 18% of the 143 InsurTech / Insurance audits it was measured on
Engines preferentially select easier, clearer text, and fluency rewrites improve citation rates in controlled sandboxes. A moderate, causal signal.
How to read this
- What the sample is. The 143 domains we have audited and classified as InsurTech / Insurance. That is a sample of the industry, not a census: it is the set of sites our crawler has reached and scored, and it carries whatever bias that selection has.
- Rubric version 2026-08-02. Every figure here comes from audits scored on this single rubric generation. Scores from different generations measure different things, so they are never mixed. Compatible generations: 2026-08-02.
- Why there are no company names. These are aggregates. We do not publish which domains sit at the bottom of a distribution, and the queries behind this page cannot return a domain name.
- Publishing floor. We publish an industry only once it reaches 100 audited domains, and a factor's failure rate only once 30 audits in the industry count toward that factor. Below either floor the number would move with a handful of sites, so we withhold it.
- What the audit can and cannot see. This audit measures citation readiness: how easily AI engines can crawl, extract, and quote these pages. It cannot see the off-site brand footprint (mentions, reviews, third-party coverage) that gates whether AI engines retrieve a brand at all; Kuroma's visibility scans and off-site signals track that side.
