Client asking if they are showing up in when people use AI to find businesses, but there is no accurate answer

Small-mid size agency, and in the last 3 conversations with CMOs on reviews, they all asked in some variation of this: How often does our brand get cited when someone asks Perplexity, Gemini, or Google's AI for a recommendation?

Up until this point we've been able to provide traffic and keyword metrics from Semrush, but those don't really tell the story of the brand's presence in the space, especially between the different models, as there is no SERP to track. It's not straightforward SEO value, and we haven't really had a good way to present it other than anecdotal evidence.

Is this something agencies are just now doing manually and noting down, or is there a systematic way to audit this yet? I feel like we are behind the curve on this and not the only one.

Hey guys,

Selling a fully built, niche directory website targeting the mental health space. I need to clear up some cash and focus for my main project, so I’m letting this go as a turnkey setup.

The Angle

Instead of selling this as just another boring local directory, the hook here is AI search optimization.

Therapists are realizing that clients are starting to skip Google and use ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity to find local clinicians ("find an anxiety therapist near me"). This site is positioned specifically to help therapists get crawled and cited in those conversational AI results. This angle makes cold outreach incredibly easy because the hook actually catches their attention.

How to Monetize It

It’s set up perfectly for a high-ticket subscription or lifetime deal model. You can pitch founding spots for a one-time fee ($199) to build quick upfront cash flow, and then flip it to a yearly recurring subscription later on. A single private-pay client is worth thousands to a therapist, so it’s an easy sell.

What You Get:

• The Domain & Site: Clean, highly brandable domain name and a fully built directory website with a polished, modern design.
• Current Users: Already has 9 active therapists listed on it so the site doesn't look empty to new signups.
• Outreach Playbook: The exact AI-focused cold email templates I use to get clinicians to reply.

Tech Stack & Price

• Built on: Next js
• Price: $1,000 flat. Willing to use a secure escrow service for the handover.

This is a ready-to-go setup for someone who wants to skip the building phase and go straight to scraping lists and sending cold emails.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been diving into back-office integration bottlenecks, and I keep running into what looks like a massive operational time-sink.

It looks like a huge chunk of suppliers still receive purchase orders via messy emails or PDFs, forcing human clerks to manually type that data into ancient vendor portals or ERPs that completely lack APIs. One typo, and the whole order is ruined.

I’m looking into building an independent browser-automation tool to map this unstructured data and input it automatically, but I want to validate the market first.

If your team deals with this, I'd love your insight:

1. Is manual order entry a genuine daily pain point, or just accepted overhead?
2. What usually breaks automation attempts (e.g., wrong SKUs, weird layouts)?
3. Is entering the data into the portal the bottleneck, or is reading the messy email the hard part?

Note: No links, no product, nothing to sell. Just looking for honest industry feedback. Thanks!
