Founder Presence + Discovery

For the founder who also needs to be found.

Buyers research the category through Google and AI assistants, and today they find little or the wrong account of your company. We fix both your presence and how you are discovered.

01Who it is for

Who this is for.

Choose this when buyers research your category through Google and AI assistants, and your company is missing, vague or described wrongly when they do.

  • Everything in Founder Presence applies: technical AI or B2B SaaS, real customers, a founder who knows more than the internet shows
  • Buyers compare options before talking to sales, and you suspect you are absent from those comparisons
  • When you ask ChatGPT or Perplexity about your category, your company is missing or described wrongly
  • You have a website you can publish to, or a developer who can
02The problem

Where things stand today.

Buyers now ask AI assistants and search engines to explain a category and shortlist vendors. If the clear explanation of what you do only exists on sales calls, those systems have little to work with.

Your site may describe features without answering the questions buyers actually ask: how this compares, when it fits, what it costs to adopt.

Descriptions of the company and founder differ across your site, LinkedIn and directories, which makes it harder for people and machines to understand who you are.

03After 90 days

What changes over 90 days.

  • A dated baseline of how ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google describe your company for a fixed set of buyer questions, with a day 90 re-check.
  • A map of the questions buyers ask, with the pages that should answer them.
  • Up to 4 evidence-backed pages on your site that answer real buyer questions in your founder's words.
  • Consistent descriptions of company and founder across the places that get crawled and checked.
  • A founder media rhythm that feeds the same topics.

These describe the work delivered. They are not guarantees of leads, revenue, rankings or AI mentions.

04The method

Which layers of the method this uses.

The base layer plus search and AI discovery: buyer-question research, evidence pages and consistent company information, so buyers find a clear account of you without a call.

I'm so grateful I met Alex when I was launching. Without his help, I wouldn't have thought to use partnerships. They brought me my first 1K downloads, two leads already, and visibility that is going to carry my business into 2026.

11Questions

Questions about Founder Presence + Discovery.

Can you guarantee we will appear in ChatGPT?

No. Nobody outside the AI companies controls what their assistants say, and answers change between runs. What I can do is make a clear, consistent and well-sourced account of your company available, check it in a documented way, and report honestly on what changed.

Why only 4 pages?

Each page is built from an interview, research and your technical review. Four good pages that answer real buyer questions are more useful than twenty thin ones, and they are what the 90-day budget can do well.

Do I need to rebuild my website?

No. The work fits into your existing site. If the site cannot publish basic pages or edit page titles, that is a blocker we should discuss on the fit call.

How do you measure AI visibility?

A fixed set of buyer questions, run several times on each assistant, with dates and the exact wording kept. I record whether the company and founder are named, how they are described and which sources are cited. Single screenshots are not treated as evidence.
