# AYA Business Dataset

Structured data on 1,800+ businesses worldwide, scored for AI readability (AIO score 0-100).

## Description

The AYA Business Dataset is a curated collection of structured business data extracted from the **AYA Registry**, maintained by [AI Visionary](https://ai-visionary.com) (Geneva, Switzerland). Each entry represents a business entity with standardized fields covering identity, sector, geographic location, AI-readability score, and extracted keywords.

The **AIO score** (AI-readability Intelligence Optimization) measures how well a website communicates structured information to AI systems, on a scale from 0 to 100. It is computed across 7 weighted blocks: Identity, Offer Clarity, Processes, Trust & Compliance, Indicators, Pedagogy, and Technical Foundation.

## Source

Data is sourced from:
- **AYA Bot**: Automated web scraping and analysis of business websites (majority of entries)
- **AYO Diagnostic**: Manual AI-readability audits completed by business owners

Registry URL: [https://ai-visionary.com/aya](https://ai-visionary.com/aya)

df = pd.read_csv("aya_business_dataset.csv")
print(f"{len(df)} businesses from {df['country'].nunique()} countries")

# JSONL
df = pd.read_json("aya_business_dataset.jsonl", lines=True)
```

### Load with HuggingFace datasets

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("ai-visionary/aya-business-dataset")
```

### Filter by country or sector

```python
swiss = df[df["country"] == "CH"]
tech = df[df["sector"] == "technology"]
high_score = df[df["aio_score"] >= 60]
```

## Use Cases

- **Business intelligence**: Analyze AI-readiness across industries and geographies
- **Text classification**: Train models to classify businesses by sector from structured data
- **Question answering**: Build QA systems over structured business data
- **Recommendation systems**: Use AIO scores and keywords for business matching
- **Research**: Study how well businesses communicate structured data to AI systems

## Data Quality

- Entries with AIO score < 20 are excluded
- Names are cleaned (slogans, generic titles, encoding issues removed)
- Countries are normalized to ISO 2-letter codes
- Contact emails are **not included** (privacy protection)
- Raw ASR payloads are **not included** (size optimization)
