What this column contains

Pipe-separated reason strings, one per factor that fired for this row.

Where the value comes from

Emitted by the same computation that produces the score. If a reason is not listed, it did not contribute.

Example value

No website | Listing unclaimed | Fewer than 5 photos | No review in 18 months

What people use it for

  • 01Drop the reason straight into an email as the specific observation that earns a reply.
  • 02Route leads by problem type — no-website goes to one team, reputation to another.
  • 03Verify the score before a rep trusts it.
  • 04Report on which weaknesses dominate a market, and build the offer around them.

What it will not tell you

Reasons describe what the listing shows, not why. A business with no recent reviews may have stopped asking rather than stopped trading.

Questions about this field

Why expose the reasons at all?
Because an unexplained score is one a rep will not trust and cannot defend on a call. Every score here is reconstructable from its own row.
Can a row have a score but no reasons?
No. If nothing fired, there is nothing to score, and both columns reflect that.
