We sell AI visibility. Here’s ours, measured weekly.
Every agency claims they can get you recommended. We think the only honest answer is a tape: each week we ask an AI engine the 28 questions a business owner would ask when shopping for exactly what we sell, store every answer verbatim, and publish whether we were named. We started the week of 2026-06-29from zero — because everyone starts from zero, and nobody who’s lying publishes theirs.

The slope
Why publish a zero?
Because the zero is the point. AI engines recommend businesses with earned signals: entity corroboration, citations, reviews, answer-ready pages, time. We’re building ours in the open with the same playbook we run for clients — and this page is the receipt. When the number moves, you’ll see exactly what moved it, dated, in the changelog of this page. The methodology matches our Local AI Index: scheduled prompts, verbatim storage, engine labeled, no cherry-picking. The sweep runs weekly whether the news is good or not.
Your market has a tape too.
The same measurement we run on ourselves, run on your business: what AI answers today, verbatim, with the gaps that decide it.
