# Long content with no quantified facts

`geo/no-statistics` · severity **info** · category AI search · detected by `void geo` and `void audit`

## Why it matters

Statistics addition raised generative-engine visibility by about 30–40% in the GEO study, and high-influence cited pages are rich in numerical facts.

## How to fix it

Anchor claims in measurable facts with units, dates and sources ("cuts build time from 94 s to 31 s, measured 2026-09").
