How is this different from SEO?

SEO optimizes for a results page with ten links. An AI system gives a single answer and names only a few providers in it. What counts there is whether your business is clearly described, well documented and mentioned in the right places. Much of this also helps on Google – but it is a different job.

How quickly will we see results?

You see where you stand after the first measurement. Changes from the implementation usually show after eight to twelve weeks, because AI systems do not pick up new content overnight. We would rather say that up front.

Do we have to do anything ourselves?

Very little: one call at the start, access to your website or a contact at your agency, and answering subject-matter questions. We do the actual work.

Can we keep working with our current agency?

Yes. We deliver the measurement and the list of measures, and your agency implements them – or we handle the implementation ourselves. Both work.

That depends on the scope: how many questions and competitors we measure and how much we implement. After the intro call you get a fixed quote with no hidden items. The quick check and the intro call are free.

Is this GDPR compliant?

Yes. We only evaluate public answers from AI systems and do not process any personal data of your customers. All data is stored on servers in Germany.

We only want to measure it ourselves – is that possible?

Yes. That is what our self-service measurement system is for, with a trial period and fixed monthly prices. You find it under “Measurement system” in the navigation.

Does the AI recommend your business – or your competitor?

We measure weekly how ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Grok talk about your business – and implement the improvements for you. As an agency, not as a tool.

The problem, in numbers

Most companies do not appear in AI answers

Since February 2026 we have been asking four AI systems questions the way customers ask them – without the company name. 38,917 answers to 4,781 questions. The picture is clear:

16.5 %

of all answers name the measured company at all

42 of 58

measured companies are named in fewer than 15 of 100 answers

8.4 %

is the typical mention rate (median) of a measured company

Do the AI systems even see your website?

Enter your address. In seconds you see whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Grok are allowed to read your site – and what is technically missing for you to be named.

How we work

Measure, show the gaps, implement, measure again

Most companies do not need another tool that someone has to operate. They need someone who takes care of it. That is exactly what we offer – in four steps.

Step 1

We measure

We ask the AI systems hundreds of questions the way your customers ask them – and record who gets named. You get a number, not a guess.

Step 2

We show the gaps

In a call you learn what is behind it: missing content, your website, mentions outside your own site. Clear and jargon-free.

Step 3

We implement

Copy, structure, technical permissions, content that answers what your customers ask. We do the work – you do not need to hire anyone for it.

Step 4

We measure again

After the implementation we measure again with the same questions. So you see in black and white whether something has moved.

From our own measurements

The most common problems

We checked 14,421 randomly selected company websites — with the same test that runs in our free GEO check. These three problems came up most often.

86 %12,409 of 14,421

The text answers no question

A paragraph about "quality since 1998" never gets quoted. One that answers a customer question does.

56 %8,081 of 14,421

The AI has to guess

Who you are and what you do is nowhere in machine-readable form. So the AI guesses — or names someone else.

458458 of 14,421

The door is shut

The robots.txt blocks GPTBot and others — usually without anyone ever having decided that.

And one opportunity: 91 % of the sites we checked have no llms.txt — no signpost telling AI systems what matters. Whoever has one is more or less alone out there.

Random sample of 15,000 websites, 14,421 reachable, measured on 9/16/2026. No company names, no addresses — counts only.

The measurement system behind our work is also available on its own – for teams that only need the numbers.

FAQ

What to know before our first call

We measure how ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Grok answer the questions your customers ask, explain why you are or are not named, and make the necessary changes to your website and content. Then we measure again with the same questions.

Let's talk about your visibility

In the intro call we look together at how ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Grok talk about your business today – and what can be changed.
