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 TryNow today.

TryNow dominates the Google ecosystem with a staggering 92% mention rate on Gemini, yet remains completely invisible to users on Claude, revealing a massive bifurcation in its AI footprint. While the brand is the definitive authority for 'trust' and 'conversion' queries on Shopify, it is failing to capture the critical 'Facebook ad cost' and 'CAC reduction' narratives where performance marketers are actively seeking solutions.

Value Proposition

Overview

Mission

To transform online shopping by giving customers the confidence to try products before committing to purchase, bridging the gap between e-commerce and in-store experiences.

Analysis

Insights & Recommended Actions

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

Key Findings

Strength

Dominant authority on Gemini with an average position of 3.2 and near-total saturation across conversion-centric queries.

Strength

High-intent lead generation on AI Overviews where TryNow maintains a premium average position of 2.0 when mentioned.

Strength

Strong performance with the Performance Marketing Strategist persona, particularly for queries regarding expensive item conversion rates.

Recommended Actions

Address the Claude visibility gap through immediate content syndication and updated documentation focused on LLM-friendly formats.

A 0% mention rate on a primary LLM like Claude represents a critical failure in brand awareness for technical and strategic decision-makers.

Pivot content strategy to bridge 'Conversion Rate Optimization' with 'CAC Reduction' specifically for the Performance Marketing persona.

Data shows high visibility for conversion queries but poor results for ad-cost queries; linking these two topics will capture users earlier in the funnel.

Optimize for AI Overviews by targeting 'how-to' and 'setup' structured data for Shopify TBYB programs.

TryNow has a strong position (2.0) when it appears in AIO, but only appears 25% of the time; increasing the mention rate here will drive massive organic traffic.
