Media Coverage
TF1 press (Sept à Huit) — NOT a Netflix episode
Hallucination Warning — Gemini Pro
Gemini Pro claims this sale was filmed in Season 4 and Season 5 of Netflix — incorrect
Gemini Pro states the €33.85M Faubourg Saint-Honoré sale "was a major storyline in the show (featured in Season 4 and referenced in Season 5)". Perplexity Pro correctly identifies the media coverage as TF1's Sept à Huit news programme — not a Netflix episode. Do not cite this sale as Netflix content.

4 LLMs tested: ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini Pro, Perplexity Pro
9 questions — 5 findings identified
Finding 1 — Season Count (Critical)
Critical · Season Count Drift · ChatGPT & Grok
ChatGPT cites 4 seasons, Grok cites 5 — correct: 6 (S6 Netflix France 5 Feb 2026)
ChatGPT Free returns 4 seasons; Grok returns 5. The correct count is 6 seasons, with Season 6 released on Netflix France on 5 February 2026. Perplexity Pro and Gemini Pro correctly cite 6. Fix: JSON-LD numberOfSeasons: 6 with S6 release date.
Finding 2 — Franchise Model (Critical)
Critical · Franchise Model Missing · ChatGPT & Grok
ChatGPT and Grok describe Kretz as "fully independent" — franchise launched 2025-2026
Both models miss the franchise model entirely. ChatGPT states "not a franchise". Grok states "fully independent". The franchise model (Belgium, Mauritius, €50k + 11%) is a publicly announced strategic pillar. Fix: structured franchise documentation in schema and official web presence.
Finding 3 — Geographic Drift (Moderate)
Moderate · Geographic Drift · ChatGPT
ChatGPT lists Athens, Ibiza, Lisbon as permanent offices — filming locations only
ChatGPT conflates filming locations from Netflix episodes with permanent office locations. Athens, Ibiza, and Lisbon are episode settings from the "Nouvelles Destinations" spin-off — not operational offices. Fix: explicit location schema distinguishing offices from filming locations.
Finding 4 — Listings Hallucination (Moderate)
Moderate · Non-Representative Listing · ChatGPT
ChatGPT cites 32m² apartment at €710k as a Kretz example — non-representative
ChatGPT cites a 32m² Montorgueil apartment at €710,000 as a representative Kretz listing. Average Kretz ticket is €1.9M; flagships range €5M–€34M. This citation fundamentally misrepresents the agency's market tier. Fix: certified pricing parameters in schema (€1.9M avg, €33.85M record).
Finding 5 — Netflix Attribution (Moderate)
Moderate · Attribution Contradiction · Gemini Pro vs Perplexity
Gemini claims €33.85M sale filmed in Season 4 & 5 — Perplexity: TF1 press, not Netflix
Direct factual contradiction between two LLMs on the record sale's media coverage. Gemini asserts it was Netflix content (Seasons 4 & 5). Perplexity correctly identifies TF1 press coverage (Sept à Huit). The certified fact: this sale was NOT a Netflix episode. Fix: explicit schema annotation on the record transaction.
