Solid SEO. Good pages.
Still invisible when buyers ask AI.
On generic “best X for Y” prompts we were invisible, even with good pages.
AI leans on review sites, “best X” lists and Reddit threads. I show you which ones it uses, and which you’re missing from.
Every single one of them had a proprietary “AI visibility score”... I came out of every call more confused.
No score. You get the answers, the pages behind them, and every piece of work I do.
Buyers now ask AI before they ask you.
They ask ChatGPT which tool to use and read the answer. If you’re not in it, they may never visit your site.

AI builds its answer from pages it can find and trust. These are the places I look first.
It Leans on Other People’s Pages
Review sites, “best X” lists and Reddit threads. If you’re missing there, AI recommends someone who isn’t.
Good Pages Aren’t Enough
Founders with solid SEO and indexed pages still say they were “invisible” on “best X for Y” questions.
It Can’t Tell Who You’re For
One study of AI answers found: “Each successful tool was associated with a succinct ‘who it’s for’ statement.”
Schema Isn’t Magic
As one founder put it: “Schema helps but it isn’t magic.” Technical changes alone rarely change who AI recommends.

You getCounts like “named in 4 of 15 answers”, with every answer attached.
- A

You getWhat they have that you do not.

About
Hi, I’m Michael Zacs.
I spent years writing SEO content for SaaS brands like Rank Math, where you’ll find my work under the name Uzoma Zacs. When buyers started asking AI instead of Google, one question took over my work: why does AI recommend one product and skip another?
I find what makes AI, and your buyers, doubt you. Then I remove it.
You work with me directly. No account managers, no junior writers.
FAQ
AI search, explained simply.
The questions B2B teams ask me most about getting recommended by AI.
Bran’s tipAsk AI the same question a few times. Answers change from run to run, so one screenshot proves nothing.
How is this different from SEO?
SEO gets your pages ranked on Google. This gets AI to mention you when buyers ask which tool to buy. Ranking well on Google does not mean AI mentions you: a 2026 study of 150 SaaS companies found 44% of brands in Google’s top 10 got zero ChatGPT mentions for the same searches. Keep your SEO. This adds to it.
Can you guarantee AI will mention us?
No, and nobody honestly can. After 90 days you see the same questions asked the same way, side by side with day one, and every piece of work I did.
AI answers change every time. How do you deal with that?
I ask each question several times on each AI tool and show you every answer, so you see the pattern, not one lucky or unlucky run.
What happens after I send my product name?
Within 48 hours you get an email with what ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity say to 5 questions your buyers ask, each asked 5 times (75 answers), who they recommend instead of you, and the biggest gap I see. No call and no card.
What is in the Diagnostic, and how do I pay?
Four things: how often AI mentions you, why AI picks others, what to fix and write first, and how to track it. You can give it to your own team or agency. Half to start, the other half when all four are delivered.
What does the 90-day work include?
I do the TRACED steps with you: buyer content like comparison pages, outreach to the sites AI reads, fixes to your pages and lead tracking. You approve every piece. At day 90 you see before and after, then you can stop or continue 3 months at a time. It is billed monthly, and I give the price on the call.
Who do you work with?
B2B SaaS and AI companies whose buyers ask AI which tool to use. You work with me directly, with no handoffs.
