What you get.

  • Your report

    How often AI recommends you, who it names instead, and where it sends travellers.

  • The four checks

    Facts AI states, sites it points to, how it describes you, and questions you're losing.

  • Your fixes

    Most important first, each tied to a number in your report.

  • Month-to-month comparison

    Same questions monthly; a change is called only when the numbers support it.

How we measure.

  • Five assistants

    ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI.

  • Three languages

    English, Mandarin and German, every month.

  • Asked many times

    Asked several times, so we report a likely range, not one number.

  • Nothing changes without your OK

    Every fix waits for your approval.
