How our AI checks work
Six steps, and you can stop at any one of them
Most people run a check, read the evidence, and fix it themselves. That is a completely reasonable outcome and every report is written so you can. This page explains the whole path anyway, including exactly where the free part stops.
- 1 You start with your own question Every check is written as a question a business owner has actually asked us, not as a service name. You find yours, rather than working out which product matches your problem.
- 2 We produce a real result The check runs against what is genuinely published about your business right now. You get something useful before anyone asks you for money, and it is your result rather than a sample.
- 3 We show the evidence Every finding names the source it came from and the date we observed it. You can open that source and check our working, which is the only reason to believe a diagnosis you did not run yourself. The free part ends here
- 4 We explain what it costs you A conflicting phone number is not a technical detail. It is a customer who rang the wrong number and a job you never knew you lost. Every finding is translated into the business consequence.
- 5 We show what resolving it actually takes The steps, the deliverables, the delivery window, and what we would need from you are all listed before you decide anything. For most people this is where the decision becomes easy in one direction or the other.
- 6 You decide, and the work becomes visible If you go ahead, the work appears in your portal broken into steps with real due dates, so you can watch it happen without chasing anyone for an update.
Sometimes the honest answer is that you do not need us
We did not find a problem here that justifies paying us to fix it.
That sentence appears in our reports on purpose. A check that always ends in a recommendation is not a diagnostic tool. It is an advertisement wearing one as a costume.
So when a check finds nothing meaningful, it recommends nothing. When the evidence points to a possible problem but is not strong enough to act on, it says investigate rather than fix, and tells you what would need confirming first.
This costs us sales in the short term. It is worth it, because it means that when a check does tell you something is wrong, you have a reason to believe it.
Common questions
What people ask before they start
Where exactly does the free part stop?
The check is free and the findings are yours to keep and act on. What is paid is the implementation: correcting the listings, writing the pages, repairing the structured data, running the outreach. If you would rather do that work yourself, the report is written so that you can.
Do I have to create an account?
Not to run the free AI Visibility Scan. You do need one to see prices and to buy a piece of work, because the price sits inside your portal beside the scope and the approval step. Creating the account takes about a minute and there is no card and no charge.
What happens immediately after I approve a piece of work?
It expands into its individual steps inside your portal, each with its own due date, and the first one starts. Across the 30 checks we currently offer there are 145 delivery steps and 116 named deliverables defined in advance, so nothing about the scope is decided after you have paid.
What if the check finds nothing worth fixing?
Then it recommends nothing, and says so plainly. A check that always ends in a recommendation is an advertisement wearing a diagnostic as a costume. This costs us sales in the short term and it is the reason you can believe the recommendations we do make.
Will this guarantee AI recommends my business?
No, and you should be careful with anyone who says it will. Nobody controls what an AI assistant says. What can be controlled is the accuracy, completeness, and consistency of the evidence those systems read about you, and that is the work we do. We reply within two business hours, and our working day is Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm Pacific Time.
