When someone asks ChatGPT for “a good plumber in Longueuil”, does it name you?

More and more customers ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Google for a recommendation instead of comparing ten websites. These tools name two or three businesses. We work to make sure one of them is you, and we show you the results every month.

How AI decides who to recommend

It listens mostly to what others say about you

Google and Bing listings, Yelp, HomeStars, Yellow Pages, customer reviews, online discussions. Your site counts, but outside sources often carry more weight.

It has to be sure you’re the same business everywhere

Same name, same phone, same service area on every listing. If your listings don’t match, AI would rather name someone else.

Its answers change from one time to the next

Ask the same question twice and you’ll often get different names. One screenshot proves nothing: we ask every question several times to measure where you really stand.

What we do differently

We test in French and English

Most tracking tools only test in English. In Quebec, your customers ask in French. We test both.

We measure, we don’t guess

10 real customer questions, asked 3 times to 4 AI tools. You see who gets named, how often, and where you stand.

We start with the sources AI reads

No filler blog posts. We fix your listings, your reviews and the clear answers on your site first: prices, service area, RBQ licence.

Setup

  • Starting test: 10 questions, 4 AI tools, in French and English
  • Listings updated and matching: Google, Bing, Apple, Yelp, HomeStars, Yellow Pages
  • The right answers on your site: services, service area, prices, RBQ licence, common questions
  • Structured data and an llms.txt file for AI tools

What we don’t promise

Nobody controls what ChatGPT says. We don’t guarantee first place. We guarantee measured work: you see your score before, and every month after.

Common questions

How is this different from regular SEO?

Classic SEO goes after Google’s list of links. AI visibility goes after the answer itself: when ChatGPT or Google sums up “the best roofers in Laval”, we want your name in it. The two help each other, and we work on both.

Can you guarantee ChatGPT will recommend me?

No, and be wary of anyone who does. We guarantee honest measurement, before and after, with the same questions.

How long until I see results?

Listings get fixed within a few weeks. AI tools update on their own schedule, so we compare your score at 30, 60 and 90 days.

Do I need a new website?

No. We work with your current site. If it’s really holding you back, we’ll tell you straight.

Why test in French?

Because it’s the language most of your customers use in Quebec, and AI answers aren’t the same in French and English.
