Measure the strength of your authority.

Financial capital appears on a balance sheet. Authority Capital doesn’t — but it influences growth, referrals, recruiting, pricing power, customer trust, and AI discoverability every day. Discover where your organization stands and receive a strategic roadmap for improvement.

The Authority Capital Index

Direction matters more than the number.

A score is a starting position, not a verdict. The Index is built to be re-measured, so the useful number is the one that moves.

  1. Below 40Significant Opportunity
  2. 40–59Developing
  3. 60–74Emerging Authority
  4. 75–89Strong Position
  5. 90–100Industry Leader

Questions

Before you start.

How long does the assessment take?

The questionnaire takes about twenty minutes. The analysis behind it takes us considerably longer — most of the work happens after you submit.

Who should complete it?

Whoever owns the commercial outcome. A CEO, founder, or marketing leader. It asks about positioning and evidence, not about channel tactics.

How is the score calculated?

Each of the nine dimensions is scored and weighted into a composite Authority Capital Index. Your responses are combined with observable signals — digital presence, competitive position, and how AI systems currently read your organization.

Is the report customized?

Entirely. The findings, competitive observations, and 90-day roadmap are specific to your organization and market.

How often should we reassess?

Quarterly. Authority moves slowly enough that monthly measurement is noise, and fast enough that annual measurement misses the trend.

How does this differ from an SEO audit?

An SEO audit examines a website. This examines whether your organization has accumulated the trust, expertise, and proof that make it worth surfacing — of which the website is one expression.
