Where they look
Each assistant reads different places
People now ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Copilot and Siri things like "who is a good electrician in Marion?" Each one answers from what it can read about you online. If your details are missing or different in each place, they may skip you or get you wrong.

Plain truth
What nobody can promise
Nobody controls what an AI assistant says, and they change how they work often. We cannot promise you will be recommended. We can make sure the facts about your business are correct, consistent and easy for them to find, which is what they rely on.
Questions
Questions people ask
Can you make ChatGPT recommend my business?
No one can promise that. We make sure the information assistants read about you is complete, correct and the same everywhere, which gives you the best chance.
Is this different from Google search?
It overlaps. Google, your website and your listings feed both. AI assistants also read places like Bing, Apple and Yelp, so we cover those too.
Do I have to pay for these listings?
Google Business Profile, Bing Places and Apple Business Connect are free to set up. You pay us for the set-up and checking work.
How do I know if it is working?
Each month we ask the main assistants about your kind of business in your area and send you what they said.
