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.

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.

https://newhaven.edu 📍 Industry: Education, Schools & Universities
33 BS / 100

The University of New Haven avoids the ‘BS’ trap by grounding its generic marketing slogans in the tangible achievements of its students and faculty. While the technical SEO and structured data are surprisingly absent, the content substance — particularly the naming of specific researchers and career outcomes — provides a solid foundation of proof. It is a standard institutional site that prioritizes human stories over data-driven performance metrics.

1. Implement University and Person structured data (JSON-LD) to connect named faculty and leadership to their academic footprints. 2. Define the ‘unique educational approach’ with a specific methodology or framework to move it from a cliche to a technical claim. 3. Include third-party validation (rankings or accreditation logos) near the ‘distinguished programs’ claims. 4. Replace the fluff-heavy H1 ‘Power On’ with a heading that specifies the university’s primary competitive advantage or specialization.

The content perfectly aligns with the Education and Higher Education category, featuring standard university taxonomies such as undergraduate/graduate programs, admissions cycles, and campus life. The presence of specific degree types like MPH (Master of Public Health) and institutional markers like ‘Charger Nation’ confirms a legitimate academic entity.

“The score of 33 reflects a site with low bullshit levels, primarily driven by high information density in the news and alumni sections. The score was penalized mainly in the Commodity Fingerprint and Identity pillars due to generic value propositions and the total absence of structured data, which creates a technical credibility gap.”
