Which Fort Worth electricians do ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity recommend?

By Lance Rankin, MBA | Tested November 10, 2026.

The short answer: three AI assistants, one question, three different lists. Together they named 18 electrical companies. Only 3 were named by two assistants. None were named by all three.

The question we asked

"Who are the best electricians in Fort Worth, Texas?"

We asked it once in each assistant, with web search turned on, the way a homeowner would.

Companies are listed in the order each assistant gave them.

Named by more than one assistant

  • Brown Electric: ChatGPT and Perplexity
  • Mr. Electric of Fort Worth: Gemini and Perplexity
  • Enoch: ChatGPT called it Enoch Electric and Gemini called it Team Enoch Electrical. We counted these as the same company.

The other 15 companies were each named by only one assistant.

Where each assistant got its list

The assistants do not pick from memory. They search, read a few pages, and repeat what those pages say.

  • ChatGPT cited four sources: a review-ranking site (DIRT Trades), Angi, ConsumerAffairs and Expertise.com. Its own searches also looked for each company's Texas license.
  • Gemini cited Angi, Thumbtack, HomeAdvisor, the Better Business Bureau, Expertise.com and ThreeBestRated, plus the companies' own websites for Hop2It and Dodson Electric.
  • Perplexity cited ten list pages, including DFW Professionals, ConsumerAffairs, Thumbtack, BestProsInTown and Expertise.com.

What this means if you own an electrical company

  1. Expertise.com and ConsumerAffairs showed up for more than one assistant. A company on those two lists had more than one way to be named.
  2. ChatGPT went looking for license records. Put your Texas electrical contractor license number where it can be read on your website.
  3. Gemini leaned on Angi, Thumbtack and the BBB. Profiles you may have forgotten about are being read.
  4. A customer who asks ChatGPT and a customer who asks Gemini are being sent to different electricians. You need to check all three.

How we ran this test

  • One question, asked once in each assistant, on November 10, 2026.
  • ChatGPT (GPT-5.4), Gemini (Flash) and Perplexity (Sonar Pro), each with live web search on.
  • AI answers change. Ask the same question tomorrow and some names will be different. This is one snapshot, not a ranking.
  • This is a report of what the assistants said. It is not Digital Regiment's opinion of any company, and nobody paid to be on this page.
