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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Based on 572 businesses audited.
Energy, Utilities & Environmental Services BS: SSE plc (sse.com)
SSE operates with a remarkably low BS profile, using its digital presence as a data-heavy transparency tool rather than a marketing brochure. The score is only elevated by the lack of external proof-linking and a reliance on industry-standard ‘net zero’ terminology. It is a rare example of a corporate site where the substance actually outweighs the signal.
Integrate Person schema for the leadership team and the Chief Sustainability Officer to bridge the authority gap. Link the review counts directly to a third-party verification source or an independent ombudsman to neutralize trust theatre flags. Add Organization schema with sameAs links to official regulatory filings and ESG rating agencies. Reduce the repetition of the ‘£33bn’ figure in body text to lower the concept repetition score.
The site is perfectly aligned with the Energy and Utilities sector, specifically focusing on renewable infrastructure and network distribution. The content consistently references regulatory frameworks like Ofgem and ED3 price controls, confirming its role as a major utility provider.
“The BS score of 32 is primarily driven by the Commodity Fingerprint (7) and Trust and Proof (10) pillars. The high density of industry jargon and the technical absence of linked external proof or schema in the crawl data prevent a lower score. However, the Semantic Coherence score of 0 reflects an elite level of alignment between corporate claims and operational reality.”
