Full definition

When public sources disagree, search engines and language models must choose or blend conflicting statements. Inconsistencies increase the chance of wrong answers and weak entity resolution.

Audits compare homepage, docs, schema, app stores, Wikipedia/Wikidata if present, review sites, and partner listings. Fix the source of truth first, then propagate corrections outward.

Fact consistency is operational entity SEO and a direct anti-hallucination hygiene practice. See Entity Consistency, Entity Drift, and Third-Party Corroboration.

Example

Docs say “unlimited seats on Pro” while the pricing page still says “up to 20 seats,” so assistants alternate between both claims.
