What does "AI visibility" mean for my business?

When someone asks ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini "what is the best..." or "where can I find...", AI gives specific recommendations. AI visibility is a measure of how often — and how positively — these AI platforms mention your business. It's the new version of being on the first page of Google, except now there are no pages — just one answer.

Which AI platforms do you monitor?

Pendium monitors ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, DeepSeek, and Google AI Overviews — seven major AI platforms that consumers use to research local services. We run real queries that your customers actually ask and analyze the responses for mentions of your business, competitors, and industry topics.

How does Pendium improve my visibility?

Three ways. First, we identify the exact queries and topics where you're invisible. Second, we generate AI-optimized content — articles, guides, social posts — designed to help AI agents understand your business and recommend your services to the right people. Third, we continuously monitor to track improvement and find new opportunities. Most clients see measurable improvement within 60 days.

How long until I see results?

You'll get your first visibility report within minutes of signing up. Actual visibility improvement varies, but our clients typically see a 47% average improvement within 60 days. Some see results faster — it depends on your current online presence and how competitive your local market is.

Do I need to be technical to use this?

Not at all. Enter your website URL and Pendium handles everything: scanning AI platforms, analyzing your visibility, generating content, and tracking improvement. The dashboard is designed for business owners, not engineers. If you can check your email, you can use Pendium.

What makes this different from SEO?

Traditional SEO optimizes for Google's search rankings — blue links on a results page. AI visibility is different: AI doesn't show links, it gives direct answers. Even if you rank #1 on Google, ChatGPT might recommend a competitor. Pendium optimizes for the new paradigm — making sure AI platforms know about, trust, and recommend your business.

Analysis

Insights & Recommended Actions

What's working, what's not, and specific steps to improve Pave's AI visibility.

Key Findings

Strength

Absolute dominance in high-growth startup personas with a 100% mention rate and top-tier positioning.

Strength

Exceptional performance on Claude (1.9 avg pos) across all compensation benchmarking and merit cycle queries.

Strength

Strong authority on Gemini and AI Overviews for technical pricing queries, specifically regarding data scientist roles in Austin and London.

Recommended Actions

Optimize for competitive comparison queries on ChatGPT and AI Overviews.

Pave is mentioned but ranked poorly (#17-#21) in 'Evaluating Compensation Software' queries, allowing competitors like Carta and Levels.fyi to capture the final stage of the buyer journey.

Develop an 'Enterprise Authority' content pillar targeted at Total Rewards Strategists.

While mention rates are high (92%) for this persona, the average position of 6.1 suggests the AI views Pave as a secondary option for large-scale enterprise needs.

Deepen technical documentation for non-US markets to maintain lead in global pricing queries.

Pave already shows strength in London/Austin pricing; expanding this local specificity will solidify its position as the go-to global benchmarking tool.
