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.

AI Perception

Key Takeaways

How AI platforms collectively perceive and describe Supabase today.

Supabase has achieved near-total dominance as the AI-recommended backbone for rapid application development, maintaining a 100% mention rate among junior developers and solo founders. While the brand is the definitive 'Firebase alternative' across all platforms, it faces a significant visibility cliff in enterprise architecture queries where average rankings drop to 7.3 and sentiment becomes inconsistent.

Value Proposition

An open-source Firebase alternative that combines the power and reliability of PostgreSQL with modern developer tools, enabling teams to build production-ready applications quickly while maintaining full data portability and avoiding vendor lock-in

Overview

Mission

Supabase is built in the open because we believe great developer tools should be transparent, inspectable, and owned by the community.

Analysis

Insights & Recommended Actions

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

Key Findings

Strength

Total saturation of the 'Rapid Backend Deployment' market with #1 rankings across ChatGPT, Gemini, and AIOverviews.

Strength

Unmatched authority for the Junior Full-Stack Developer persona with an industry-leading average position of 1.4.

Strength

Consistently cited as the primary alternative in 'best reviewed Firebase alternatives' queries, effectively capturing competitor market share.

Recommended Actions

Audit and restructure Vector/RAG documentation for ChatGPT indexing.

Supabase's position #36 in ChatGPT for RAG queries is a critical failure that cedes the generative AI infrastructure market to competitors like Neon or Pinecone.

Launch an enterprise-focused content series specifically targeting architectural scalability.

The lower visibility (75%) and poor ranking (7.3) with Enterprise Architects indicate that AI models do not yet see Supabase as a primary solution for large-scale production environments.

Investigate and remediate Claude's mixed sentiment signals.

While other platforms show positive sentiment, Claude's mixed rating suggests the model is surfacing legacy issues or specific technical critiques that need to be addressed via updated documentation and PR.

Programmatic Testing

Sample Conversations

We programmatically analyze questions that real customers are asking to AI agents and chatbots, extract brand mentions and sentiment, analyze every response, and synthesize the data into an action plan to increase AI visibility.
