Also named, based in another state

AI assistants named these companies too, but MacRAE'S lists them in a different state, not California. They belong to that state's ranking, not this one.

The five questions we asked

Every company in this cell is measured on the same questions, written the way a buyer would type them. That is what makes the ranking a comparison rather than a collection of anecdotes.

1“Best laser and waterjet cutting services companies in California”
2“Who supplies precision laser-cut stainless steel panels in California”
3“I need a California laser or waterjet cutting partner for a short-run custom machinery project, who should I talk to”
4“Top laser and waterjet cutting services suppliers in California for industrial equipment buyers”
5“Which California laser and waterjet cutting service providers can handle thick plate cutting with tight tolerances”
6“List 20 laser and waterjet cutting services companies in California with their specialties.”the roster question

Each question is asked more than once, which is why a company's score is out of 15 answers rather than out of the number of questions.
