AI is your buyer
Before human buyers speak to your company, AI has already evaluated, filtered, and shortlisted options. Understanding this shift changes how organisations must govern their public knowledge.

Publishing AI-generated content at volume triggers Google's E-E-A-T evaluation and compounds authority floor decline. The fix is structural, not iterative.
How do we map what AI models say about us — and what they're missing?
An AI visibility audit maps three dimensions — entity coverage, classification accuracy, and competitive displacement — not citation counts.
