Ranking disclosure

How results are ordered

effective 1 Sept 2026

When you don’t pick an explicit sort order, results are scored as a weighted sum of the signals below, each normalised to 0–1. Nothing about whether an auto service can actually do the job on your vehicle is decided here — that is a hard filter, applied before ranking ever runs.

Paid placement: Disabled

Paid placement. Currently disabled; when active, results are labelled.

Proximity

How far the auto service is from your chosen location.

30%

Availability

How soon the auto service can take your car.

22%

Quality

Ratings from customers whose bookings completed on the platform.

20%

Reliability

How reliably the auto service confirms bookings, keeps its calendar current and responds.

15%

Price

How the price compares with other auto services for the same service and vehicle.

Fit

Whether the auto service specialises in your vehicle's make or type.

Boost (paid placement)

Paid placement. Currently disabled; when active, results are labelled.

Parameters

Proximity half-life: 4 km
Availability half-life: 48 h
Bayesian prior (m): 12 reviews
Max results per tenant (top 10): 2

Explicit sort orders (distance, price, availability, rating) bypass this function entirely and are exact — hard filters for fitment and status still apply.
