§01 · The Index
The top rankings, recomputed nightly.
Every clinic, agency, and vendor is scored out of 100 on three disclosed signals: qualified reviews (60), the decision facts buyers and families rely on (35), and primary-category fit (5). None of them can be bought - subscription tier is not an input. Equal scores share a rank (T-3); within a tie, more disclosed facts come first, then name.

Correct the record
Edit your services, insurance, locations, age bands, and hours. An unclaimed listing shows only what we could gather from public sources - and nobody on your side can fix it.
- 02
Earn your rank on merit
Qualified reviews are worth 60 of the 100 Index points and the decision facts buyers and families rely on 35. Claimed owners can request reviews from clients and reply to them publicly, and in the clinic finder claimed clinics are listed ahead of unclaimed ones.

Hear from families and buyers
Every family inquiry through ABA Rank reaches you in full, with their contact details, on the free plan. Software and service listings get their first buyer inquiry in full; after that a preview, and reading every one is part of the Verified plan.

§07 · AI Visibility
Families ask AI first now.
Be a source it can cite.
When someone asks ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews about ABA care or ABA software, the assistant retrieves pages and names the ones it used. Getting into that list is a publishing problem: it favors sources it can fetch, parse, and date.
Every ABA Rank listing ships as structured data, plaintext markdown, a public JSON API, and an MCP server - and we allow all 6 live-retrieval agents by name. Claiming is free, and it is what makes the listing an assistant reads complete and current - your services, locations, and insurance, in your words. No plan changes where you rank in the lists it reads.
NO ONE CAN GUARANTEE AN AI CITATION. WE PUBLISH THE FORMATS THAT MAKE ONE POSSIBLE.

§08 · Plans
Three plans. No hidden leverage.
Claiming is free, and so is every family inquiry. Paid plans add the full search report, a reviewed badge, buyer inquiries for software and service listings, and a year of analytics - never rank. Subscription tier is not an input to the Index, and no plan scores higher than another.

§09 · FAQ
Common questions, answered plainly.
Methodology, pricing, claim process, and how the matching service works - for buyers and providers alike.
§09.01What is ABA Rank?
ABA Rank is an independent directory and ranked index of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) software, service vendors, and clinics. Listings cover practice-management software, data collection, scheduling, RBT training, telehealth, billing, credentialing, staffing, and marketing partners that serve ABA providers in the United States.
§09.02How does ABA Rank rank providers?
Each provider is scored on a 100-point Index built from three disclosed signals, weighted so qualified reviews matter most: 60 points from qualified public reviews, 35 points from decision facts (the facts each listing's audience decides on - insurance accepted, and a current waitlist status for clinics, pricing, and integrations for software), and 5 points from primary-category fit. None of the three can be purchased. Methodology, weights, and source data are fully disclosed at /how-we-rank.
§09.03Is placement on ABA Rank paid?
No. Subscription tier is not an input to the ranking formula. All 100 Index points - qualified reviews (60, the largest signal), decision facts, and primary-category fit - are operational and cannot be purchased. Sponsored placements render in labeled slots above the ranked list and never change rank_score. ABA Rank does not accept paid placement disguised as merit and does not run pay-to-rank ads. Methodology versions before v3.0 did include a capped paid tier signal; see the changelog at /how-we-rank.
§09.04How often are rankings updated?
The Index is recomputed nightly as profile data, verifications, and reviews change. Top 10 leaderboards are republished quarterly, and the print edition of the Index summarises each quarter's results.
§09.05Who can claim a profile on ABA Rank?
Any owner, operator, or authorized representative of an ABA software product, service vendor, or clinic can claim their listing for free. A claimed profile unlocks 27 editable fields, client review requests and public replies to reviews, every family inquiry in full (for software and service listings, the first buyer inquiry in full and a preview of later ones), and the means to raise your Index score - claiming is free, and no plan scores higher. Verified (the full search report, a review of the listing itself and, for software and service listings, every buyer inquiry) and Sponsor are optional paid upgrades.
§09.06How much does a verified or sponsor listing cost?
Claimed profiles are free. Verified listings are $490 per year and include the full Google search report, the Verified review of the listing, a verification seal and, for software and service listings, every buyer inquiry in full. Sponsor listings are $1,490 per year and include labeled sponsored placement above ranked lists plus inclusion in the quarterly print edition. Neither changes Index score.
§09.07How does the "Get Matched" service work?
Buyers describe their project in plain language - for example, billing cleanup, credentialing for a new state launch, BCBA staffing, or software selection. ABA Rank maps the request to service categories, geography, and urgency, then returns a ranked shortlist. The buyer chooses which top providers receive the RFP, and replies stay organized in a single buyer thread.
§09.08What is the difference between a clinic, a software vendor, and a service vendor on ABA Rank?
Clinics are ABA provider organizations that deliver therapy directly to clients, indexed by location, insurance plans, age bands served, and modalities. Software vendors are products used inside ABA practices (practice management, data collection, scheduling, telehealth, RBT training). Service vendors are operational partners - billing, RCM, credentialing, staffing, marketing agencies - that support ABA businesses.
§09.09Does an ABA Rank listing help me get cited by AI assistants like ChatGPT?
It makes you available to be cited, which is the part anyone can influence. AI assistants answer by retrieving pages and naming the sources they used, and they favor sources they can fetch and parse. ABA Rank publishes every listing as schema.org structured data, as plaintext markdown at /api/vendors/{slug}/md, through a public JSON API and an MCP server, and in an llms.txt index - and names the retrieval agents behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews individually in robots.txt so all of them are allowed to read it. No directory can guarantee a model will name you; model output is non-deterministic. Details at /ai-visibility.
§09.10Do I have to pay for my ABA Rank listing to be readable by AI and LLMs?
No. Every machine-readable surface - structured data on the profile, the plaintext markdown profile, the public /api/v1 JSON API, the MCP server at /api/mcp, and the llms.txt digest - covers free Claimed listings exactly as it covers paid ones. Paid tiers buy verification review, placement, and support, not a separate ingestion path. The highest-leverage step for AI visibility is claiming the listing and filling in every field, which is free.
