Free AI visibility check, two minutes
Does AI Recommend your business?
When a buyer asks ChatGPT, Gemini or Perplexity who to use, they get two or three names read back, not ten links to scroll. Find out whether yours is one of them.

Your buyers still want what you sell. They stopped scrolling to find it.
Nothing about this shift shows up as a crisis in your reporting. That is exactly what makes it expensive.
What you see
Rankings holding. Traffic broadly flat. Google Search Console looks much the same as last year. Nothing in the numbers tells you to worry.
What is happening
Around 60% of Google searches now end without a click to any website, rising to roughly 83% when an AI Overview appears above the results. The buyer got their answer before your listing mattered.
What it costs
Enquiries thin out quietly. There is no line in Analytics that explains it, because the people you lost never reached the results page at all.
This is not a forecast. It has already happened.
Four numbers, all dated and sourced, so you can check them before you decide whether this matters to you.
51%
of B2B buyers now start vendor research in an AI chatbot more often than in Google, up from 29% eleven months earlier.

84%
of AI citations come from third party coverage rather than a brand's own website, which is why this is not a job of rewriting your homepage.
Muck Rack, May 2026
Buyers have changed how they find you twice before.
Each time, demand stayed exactly where it was. Only the route to it moved, and the businesses that read the move early took the market.
The directory era
Look up a category, ring the biggest listing
Winning meant the biggest display advert in the book.
The search era, 2000s to 2020s
Type a keyword, scan ten blue links
Winning meant page one, ideally position one to three.
The answer era, now
Ask an assistant, get three names read back
Winning means being one of the businesses the assistant actually names.
How you find out where you stand
Four steps. The first two are free, and you can stop after either one.
Step 1
Run the free check
Enter your website. You get a visibility score across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews.
Step 2
Get the full audit
The real prompts your buyers use, which businesses get named instead of you, and what is holding you back.
Step 3
Read the fix list
Everything we find, prioritised by commercial impact rather than by how easy it is to do. Yours to act on with or without us.
Step 4
Talk it through
If you need help with the work or want us to do it, a 30 minute call with the person who would actually do it. No pitch deck.
What actually gets you named.
AI search optimisation is the next stage of SEO, not a separate discipline. The fundamentals still matter. These are the levers that decide whether an assistant is confident enough to say your name.
- Third party citations and earned coverage Assistants trust what others say about you more than what you say about yourself. Trade press, directories and industry coverage do most of the work here.
- Consistent business facts Different addresses, phone numbers or service lists across the web make you a low confidence answer. Assistants quietly drop businesses they cannot verify.
- Crawl access and structured data If AI crawlers cannot reach or analyse your pages, nothing else on this list matters. This is usually the fastest fix we find.
- Review signals Review site mentions are the strongest trust signal behind a recommendation. Volume, recency and where those reviews live all count.
- Answer shaped content Pages written so a direct question gets a liftable, complete answer in the first few lines, on the commercial keywords your buyers actually type.
- Measurement over time Citation rate tracked against the prompts that matter to your pipeline, reported alongside leads and cost per lead. Not impressions.
People never stopped needing directions. They stopped needing to visit a website to get them.
MapQuest was the default way to get directions online, bought by AOL in 2000 for over a billion dollars. Google Maps launched in 2005, phones arrived with GPS built in, and the category moved. Demand never dropped for a single day.
That is the shape of what is happening in search now. The need is unchanged. The place your buyers go to meet it has moved, and the businesses that get structured, consistent and citable first tend to become the default answer. Defaults are hard to shift once an assistant has settled on one.
The engines we optimise for.
The work overlaps heavily across all four, because they reward the same things. We report on the ones your buyers actually use.
Covered
ChatGPT
The default assistant for most buyers, and increasingly the first place a shortlist gets drafted.
Covered
Perplexity
Cites sources openly, so it shows fastest whether your content is being read and trusted.
Covered
Gemini
Sits close to Google's own understanding of your business, which makes entity data critical.
Covered
Claude
Used heavily inside businesses, which matters when the person asking is a procurement lead.

Google AI Overviews
Answer extraction rather than recommendation. Handled by our AEO service.
The person you brief is the person who does the work.
Most agencies win the work with a director and deliver it with a junior. That is why so much SME marketing spend disappears without a lead to show for it.
Lobo Digital puts an experienced B2B marketer on every account. Ten years in B2B marketing, seven of them in-house across facilities management and property, buying agency services as well as delivering them. AI removes the production grind, a senior marketer makes every call, and a human signs off everything before it reaches you.
That in-house experience is also why the reporting looks the way it does. Leads and cost per lead, by service. Impressions are an input, not a result.
£0 → £1M
Commercial Cleaning
An organic channel built from nothing. Content answered what buyers were searching for, SEO made sure they found it. Now over £1M in annual revenue.

What clients say about working with us.
Why work with us on this.
01
You brief the person doing the work
No account manager layer, no junior picking up the file after the pitch. The senior person who scopes your AI search programme is the one who delivers it and the one who answers your emails.
02
We built our own visibility tooling
The AI Visibility Checker is ours, not a white-labelled dashboard resold at a markup. It means we can look at what the engines actually say about you rather than at someone else's score out of a hundred.
03
Sector experience from the inside
Seven years in-house at head of department level in facilities management and property before the agency existed. We know how those buyers shortlist, which is exactly what an AI recommendation is competing for.
04
Honest about what cannot be promised
Pricing is published on the site. Nobody here will tell you they can guarantee a ChatGPT recommendation, because nobody can. You get monthly reporting on citations and mentions, so you can judge the work yourself.
Find out what AI says about you
Two minutes, free, on your own business. If the answer is good, you have lost nothing. If it is not, you will know before your competitors do.

Questions owners ask before they run the check
It shows whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews name your business when someone asks for a recommendation in your sector and area. You get a visibility score in about 30 seconds without signing up, and can request the full written audit after that if you want the detail behind the score.
It builds on it rather than replacing it. Strong traditional SEO helps, because most AI citations come from pages already performing in search. What is different is the weight on third party coverage, reviews, consistent business facts and answer shaped content, which most SEO retainers do not cover at all.
Crawl access and structured data problems can be fixed in days and often move things quickly. Citation and review work builds over months. We report on citation rate against the prompts that matter to your pipeline so you can see movement rather than take our word for it.
No, and we would be careful with anyone who says otherwise. Nobody controls the output of these systems. We remove the reasons you are currently left out, build the signals that earn a mention and measure the result honestly.
It is early, which is the advantage. Most UK SMEs have done nothing about this yet, so the businesses that become the consistent, citable answer now tend to stay the answer. It is the same window early SEO adopters had about fifteen years ago.
