Your customers have stopped typing into Google and started asking an assistant. It does not hand them ten blue links — it names two or three businesses. We find out who it names today and what it read to decide, we do the work to get you named instead, and we check every week so you can see whether it moved.
Your customers have started asking a chatbot the question they used to type into Google. "Who is a good electrician in Neston?" "Recommend a t-shirt printer near me." And the assistant does not give them ten blue links to choose between. It gives them two or three names. You are either one of those names or you are not. There is no page two.
Google gives you a free dashboard showing every search you appeared in. No AI assistant gives you anything. ChatGPT will never email you to say it recommended you, or that it stopped.
These systems are not ranked lists. Ask the same question twice, from two towns, on two days, and you can get two different answers. One check is a coin toss.
That is what this is. The same questions, put to the same assistants, every 7, 14 or 28 days — and written down, word for word, with the date on it.
Knowing you are invisible changes nothing on its own. We find the sources the assistants actually read before naming your competitor — the directories, the review sites, the pages — and we get you onto them, saying the things that earn the mention.
The grounded assistants tell us which pages they consulted. So we can show you the eight places one looked before recommending someone else, and whether your website was one of them. That list is the plan.
"Named in 14 of 36 answers." Not a score out of a hundred we invented — a count, with every answer printed underneath it so you can read them and see we are not making it up.
You might be strong in your own town and invisible two miles away. You might win on "emergency plumber" and lose on "boiler repair". That is the difference between a worry and a to-do list.
Every rival the assistants recommend, counted, and whether they are climbing or slipping. Sometimes it is the firm down the road. Often it is a national chain that has never set foot in your town.
Perplexity searches the live web. The others answer from what they already know. Those are different facts about your business and we never merge them.
Every 7, 14 or 28 days, the same questions, so the line on the chart is about your business and not about us changing the question.
**What we actually do** First we ask. The same questions your customers would ask, put to every assistant we can reach, and we keep what came back — including the sources it read to decide. Then we do the work. Being named is not luck: it comes from being present, and consistent, on the things those assistants actually read. That is the job, and it is what you are paying for. **Then we prove it.** Every week, the same questions, on the same day, written down. Named in 14 of 36 answers — and here are all 36, quoted exactly as they came back, with the date and which assistant said it. We will also tell you plainly when we could not ask something, rather than quietly leaving it out. And if it is not moving, we will be the ones to say so — which is the part nobody selling you "AI SEO" can do, because they are not measuring.
There is no such thing as an AI ranking. Anyone selling you "position 3 in ChatGPT" has invented it. This is a repeated sample, and we call it that.
We cannot promise an assistant will name you, any more than anyone can promise a Google position. What we can do is show you where you stand and whether the work is moving it.
Answers vary by wording, by place and by day. That is exactly why we ask repeatedly — one snapshot would flatter or damn you at random.
**Start with the free one** Ask us for a free AI Visibility check first. We ask the four assistants about your business in your town, and send you the answers, word for word. No account, no card. Most people read it once and go quiet for a bit. Then they ask the obvious question — is it getting better? — and that is what Who Found Me answers.
One check, your town, your trade — the answers word for word, at no cost.
Get the free AI Visibility checkSEO is about where you appear in a list of links. This is about whether you are one of the two or three names an assistant says out loud. The work that helps is related but not identical, and the measurement is completely different — which is why nobody's SEO dashboard shows you this.
ChatGPT (OpenAI), Perplexity, Gemini (Google) and Claude (Anthropic). Perplexity searches the live web; the others answer from what the model already knows. We report them separately because they are answering different questions.
Every 14 days suits most businesses — often enough to see a change, not so often that you are watching noise. Weekly makes sense while you are actively working on it; monthly is fine once things are steady.
Then you will know that, and quickly, which is worth something on its own. We would rather tell you the work is not moving the number than keep sending you a green report.
Yes — every one of them, quoted exactly, with the date and the assistant that said it. That is the whole point. A figure you cannot check is a figure you should not trust.
No, and the answer is often interesting either way. Plenty of businesses get named with a thin website, and plenty with good websites get named nowhere. If it turns out your site is the problem, we will say so.
Three things start it: the name we look for, the towns to ask about, and the words a customer would use. Tell us those and we will come back with what it costs.
