Your Diagnosis

Before revealing the machine’s verdict, predict the BS score for each signal. Higher = more BS (more fluff, less verifiable substance). Drag each slider, then submit to compare your judgment against the engine.

Information Density 0 / 30
Read the Narrative & headings: do hard facts (prices, dates, numbers) outweigh fluff power-words?
Semantic Coherence 0 / 20
Compare the homepage promise against the sub-page reality. Do they hold the same line?
Trust & Proof 0 / 20
Weigh review mentions against actual external proof links. Claims without verification = theatre.
Commodity Fingerprint 0 / 15
Check headings & narrative against the industry clichés in the setup above.
Identity & Authority 0 / 15
Inspect the schema: is there real Organization/Person identity with sameAs links, or gaps?
Your predicted BS score 0 / 100
💡 Stuck? Reveal the heuristic lens — how the deterministic page-auditor reads each signal (no AI, pure pattern rules)

These are the structural rules a local, deterministic auditor applies — the same lens you can use to judge each signal. They describe what to look for, not this company’s result.

Information Density

Classify each sentence as substantive or hollow. Grounding markers — numbers, currencies, dates, technical units, named entities — outweigh marketing adjectives. When fluff sits right next to hard evidence, the fluff is forgiven.

Semantic Alignment

Pull the main entities out of the H1, then check whether they actually recur through the body. A page that announces one thing and then talks about another drifts. Headings with no real sentences underneath read as pseudo-substance.

Trust & Proof

Count trust words (review, testimonial, rating, verified) against real outbound proof links (Google, Trustpilot, Clutch, G2, Yelp). Lots of trust language with zero verification links is trust theatre. Unlinked logo galleries count against it.

Commodity Fingerprint

Look at how much sentence length varies. Natural writing varies its rhythm; templated or mass-produced copy is statistically uniform. Very low variation reads as commodity content — unless unique named entities break the pattern.

Identity & Authority

Inspect the JSON-LD. Is there an Organization or Person schema, and does it carry sameAs links to real external profiles (LinkedIn, socials)? Missing schema or no identity declaration signals an anonymous entity.

Want to apply this lens yourself? The free BS Indicator Chrome extension runs these heuristic checks live on any page. Bear in mind it is a single-page, deterministic tool — it relies only on pattern rules for the page in front of it and does not perform the cross-page semantic correlation this audit uses, so its readout is a starting lens, not the full verdict.

34 BS / 100

Tarmac is an industrial giant that manages to back its corporate jargon with genuine operational scale and specific project evidence. While the ‘Sustainability’ and ‘Values’ sections are heavy on ESG-flavored fluff, the forensic evidence of their involvement in the UK’s most critical infrastructure projects proves high substance.

Eliminate the abstract H4 buzzword block ‘People. Character. Performance. Innovation’ and replace it with specific safety or carbon-reduction KPIs. Integrate Person schema and biographical details for key division heads to humanize the ‘teams of experts’ claim. Explicitly link to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certification documents in the body text of the ‘Health & Safety’ section. Add sameAs property links to the Organization schema to connect the site to its parent company, CRH, and verified social footprints.

The site aligns perfectly with the Construction and Building Materials industry. The content details specific industrial processes like asphalt production at Barrasford, the sourcing of marine aggregates, and large-scale contracting services consistent with a major national supplier.

“The BS score of 34 is driven primarily by Commodity Fingerprint and Information Density. The use of template-style sections and generic industry terms like 'sustainable construction' added 11 points, while corporate-grade fluff in the headings and values sections contributed 10 points. The score remains low because the site provides a massive volume of specific, named evidence that validates its primary business claims.”
