Free AI Search Snapshot

See what AI search can actually verify about your business.

We document where your business appears, how consistently it appears, which sources support the answer, and what the evidence can actually prove.

This is a dated, controlled sample, not a universal rank, and it does not assume that a later inquiry came from an observed answer.

Inspect the evidence

Trust the method before you trust the claim

Sequoia publishes the boundaries around its AI Search work. You can inspect a named assessment example, the measurement definitions, the broader proof rules, and the data safeguards before sharing account access.

What testimonials prove

Sequoia’s existing testimonials describe the broader client experience and marketing work. They are not presented as proof that AI recommendations increased.

What We Examine

Six surfaces behind an AI-generated answer

AI visibility is not controlled by one tag or one page. The assessment documents the evidence available to a search system and the gaps that prevent a confident answer.

01

Business identity

We compare the name, location, services, credentials, and ownership story across your website and public sources. Contradictions stay visible until they can be resolved.

02

Retrieval and citations

We inspect whether useful pages can be crawled, retrieved, and cited. A citation is recorded separately from a business mention or recommendation.

03

Recommendation questions

We define the commercial questions a customer could ask, then document what appears without presenting one favorable answer as a permanent rank.

04

Independent corroboration

We identify the official records, profiles, reviews, associations, and editorial sources that support or conflict with what the business says about itself.

05

Website evidence

We review service clarity, first-hand expertise, internal links, technical access, and whether visible structured data agrees with the page.

06

Measurement path

We separate visibility from outcomes so mentions, citations, visits, inquiries, qualified leads, and jobs are not blended into one impressive-looking number.

Measurement Standard

Visibility and business outcomes are different stages.

The assessment does not turn an appearance into a lead. Each observation keeps its original meaning.

Mentioned

The business appears in the answer.

Recommended

The business is presented as a provider worth considering.

Primary recommendation

The business is presented first or most strongly in that observation.

Cited

A page connected to the business appears as a source.

Referral visit

A visitor reaches the website from an identifiable AI source.

Inquiry

A person contacts the business.

Qualified lead

The inquiry is a real business need the company can address.

Job booked

The business confirms an appointment or job under its own operating definition.

Questions

Before you request the assessment

What is included in the free AI Search Snapshot?

The AI Search Snapshot reviews the public information that search and AI systems can retrieve before account access. It documents business-identity conflicts, relevant pages and sources, an initial question set, visible citations or recommendations, and the next corrections that deserve verification.

Will this guarantee that ChatGPT recommends my business?

No. AI answers can vary by product, session, location, wording, and time. Sequoia documents observable answers, strengthens the public evidence supporting the business, and measures each stage separately. No agency can guarantee a durable recommendation from an independent AI system.

Is an AI Search assessment the same as an SEO audit?

They overlap, but the question is different. A general SEO audit examines search visibility and website performance. The AI Search assessment focuses on whether the business can be identified, retrieved, supported by public evidence, cited, and recommended across AI-assisted search experiences.

Do I need to provide account access?

Not for the public snapshot. If the evidence points to an account-level issue, we identify the exact system and access needed before deeper verification begins.

What happens after the assessment?

You receive the findings and a prioritized correction path. You may implement the work internally, ask an existing provider to handle it, or discuss a paid Sequoia engagement for verification and execution.

Start with what can be verified.

Request the public snapshot first. If the findings support deeper work, we decide what evidence and access are needed next.
