Crane Index Research

The rate a machine gets wrong is a customer you never meet

How cleanly AI search reads Britain's banks, insurers and asset managers, and why financial services AI visibility decides who gets quoted.

This benchmark measures how cleanly AI engines read the websites of Britain's banks, insurers, asset managers and building societies, and whether an assistant can state each firm's products, rates and terms correctly. In the run measured on 6 August 2026, 122 of the 175 financial services sites approached returned enough for a machine to score at all. Financial services AI visibility starts there: an assistant can only quote the firms it can read.

A saver puts a plain question to an assistant. Which cash ISA pays the most right now, which business account suits a sole trader, which insurer will cover a leasehold flat. The machine answers in a sentence or two, names two or three providers, and attaches a figure to each. The person acts on that. No results page, no comparison table, no visit to your website. The shortlist for their money, and the number stuck to your name, is settled before you know the question was ever asked.

In a regulated market that carries a cost most boards have never priced. When an engine cannot reach your live rate or your real terms, it fills the gap with whatever it last read elsewhere. An invented rate or an imagined exclusion, repeated confidently to everyone who asks, is worse than silence.

On 6 August 2026 we ran the leading financial services organisations through the Crane Index, our three-scanner AI Visibility Suite. Of the 175 home pages we approached, 53 could not be read by a machine at all: 27 refused an automated reader, 21 gave it no response and 5 serve pages that do not exist until scripts run. Of the 122 a machine could read, not one reached 70 out of 100, and the field is led by BBVA at 69, with Jefferies Financial Group next at 66. Every figure here is a first-party measurement, the full dated result set is archived, and we re-run the scan and report the movement.

The sixty-second read

  • The finding: 122 of the 175 sites we approached could be read by a machine, and not one of them reached 70 out of 100 on the Crane Index.
  • The money: when a buyer asks an engine to shortlist suppliers, an illegible site is simply not on the list. The demand does not vanish, it goes to a legible competitor free, while your paid channels buy it back at a rising cost per acquisition.
  • The pattern to watch: in the two flagship studies, the FTSE 100 and the UK's biggest online retailers, one mechanical habit separated the top of the field from the bottom, valid structured data and one identity a machine can resolve. That is a markup sprint, not a rebuild, so a median can move faster than a board expects.

The full ranked field follows. Or test yourself first: the free scanner takes a minute.

Across the 122 readable sites the Crane Index ran from 19 to 69. Not one reached 70, 11 sat between 55 and 69, 69 between 40 and 54, and 42 below 40. The strongest of the three reads was Agent Readiness at a median of 63, and the weakest was Brand Representation at 15, whether a machine can confirm from your own site who you are.

Invisible by choice: the 53 locked doors ↓

These names have no score for a sharper reason: their sites would not let a machine reader in at all. They refused it outright, gave it nothing, or serve pages that are empty until scripts run, and the crawlers and shopping agents AI engines send live in the same data centres our reader does. One fair caveat, stated plainly: a site that verifies crawlers by network may admit engines it recognises while refusing ours, so they are reported as unmeasured, never scored. But a door bolted against unknown machines is a posture, and it is one the machines now bringing buyers will meet first.

The gold dashed lines sit at 55 on both reads, the level below which the engines we prompted began to omit or invent. The top-right quadrant is found and trusted on both. Hover any dot for the company.

A low score says a site is hard for a machine to read, not that the business is anything other than excellent at what it does. The 53 sites a reader could not enter are reported as unmeasured, never scored zero. The stakes are on the record: in 2026, Google reported that its AI Mode in Search had passed a billion monthly users, and the machine-readable layer these scanners read is the structured data Google Search Central documents.

The price a wrong number carries in a regulated market

The price is a customer acting on a figure you never published, and most of this field is exposed to it. Money sites bury their most important facts by habit, and the machines pay them back in kind: the median site landed at 43 on the Crane Index, 111 sites sat below 55, and not one cleared the Strong band of 70. The spread runs from 19 to 69, so the gap between the firms a machine quotes cleanly and the ones it guesses at is already wide.

The blocked firms tell the sharper story. 53 of the sites we approached could not be scored at all, and the causes are specific to how financial pages are built. 27 refused the automated request outright. 21 returned a page with nothing an engine could use, the rate rendering only for a human eye. 5 kept their live figures locked inside a calculator or script a fetcher will not run. Every one of them is a firm an assistant cannot quote, so it quotes a competitor instead, or repeats a stale number scraped from somewhere else and presents it as fact.

A machine must settle which firm you are before it quotes your rate

Accuracy on money starts with identity. Before an engine attaches a rate to a name it has to be certain which institution it is reading, and a group with a dozen sub-brands, a holding company and a trading name that never resolves to one legal identity gives it nothing firm to hold. That is where this cohort separates. The median retrieval read sits at 50, a fair way above the composite of 43, which says most of these firms can be reached but far fewer can be understood and confirmed once reached. Across the three reads the field is strongest on Agent Readiness, whether an automated agent can reach and act on the site, at a median of 63, and weakest on Brand Representation, whether a machine can confirm from your own site who you are, at 15. It is that weaker read that decides whether a machine names you or someone else.

BBVA leads the field at 69, and the reason is plain: a site an engine can move through, a single resolvable identity it can attach trust to, and product facts it can read and repeat without inventing anything. When an assistant is asked to compare providers, that is the firm it reaches for, because reaching for it is safe.

The work that gets a financial brand quoted correctly

The fix is rarely a rebuild, and it costs less than the trust lost to a misquote. Put valid Organization and Product structured data, the machine-readable labelling engines rely on, on the pages that carry your rates and terms. Render one legal identity, worded the same way, on every page you publish. And place the commercial facts a customer needs where a machine can read them, not sealed behind a login or inside a script it will not run. Our methodology sets out exactly how each of the three reads is scored, so nothing here is a matter of opinion.

You can see where your own site stands in minutes with the free AI readability check, the same engine that produced this table. For a firm that wants its standing watched month on month as the assistants rewrite the shortlist, continuous monitoring runs at £1,600 a year ex VAT. The institutions that become legible now are the ones an engine will name, quote and trust as more of your customers ask it before they ask you.

The Crane Standard

The senior read,
once a week.

Most marketing newsletters are noise on a schedule. This is not that. Once a week I send a short, considered read on the shifts that actually change what you should do, across the AI shift, PPC, technical SEO and analytics. Filtered, weighted and signed off by me before it goes out. The judgement is mine, and now you can hear every edition in my own voice.
