Part 1 · The results

Where they started

First scan: March 26, 2026. Asked for schools near Massachusetts that offer video analysis, a core part of Boston Surf Adventures’ coaching, Claude listed eight other schools.

recommend surf schools near massachusetts that provide video analysis to help me improve my technique

Claude

“Great — I now have solid information on the best surf schools near Massachusetts. It's worth noting that dedicated video analysis is not commonly advertised by New England surf schools (it's more prevalent in tropical/year-round surf destinations). However, several schools in the region offer strong technique-focused coaching and private lessons — which is the best format for requesting video feedback.”

Boston Surf Adventures: not mentioned

How we count

An AI citation is one link from an AI answer to a page on agents.bostonsurfadventures.com, counted in every scan from March 26 to October 31, 2026, across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity. The same page under different addresses counts once. Quoted answers are word for word, with bold formatting removed; “…” marks a cut. The questions tracked grew over time, so we don’t compare visibility scores between dates.
