# Your customers meet an AI answer before they meet you. We make sure it names you.

Google's AI Overviews now appear for 88% of commercial searches, nearly double the coverage of a year ago. Gerris audits how your business appears in AI answers, fixes what the machines get wrong, and measures the result every month, in writing.

## Why this, why now

Search results used to be ten links and a choice. Today the top of the page is a written answer, produced by AI systems that assemble it from your website, your Google Business Profile, your directory listings, and whatever else they can verify about you. When those sources disagree, the AI does not call you to clarify. It names the competitor whose facts line up.

Review searches moved furthest of the five search types studied. Those are buying searches. The answer on top is now the first impression, the shortlist, and often the decision.

## What we do

### 1. AI Visibility Audit—$750 flat

We test how your business appears across Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini for the searches that bring you revenue. We document what the AI answers say about you, where you are missing, and where a competitor is being named instead. We check your entity and name-address-phone consistency across your site, your Google Business Profile, and your directory listings. The deliverable is a written report with every fix in priority order.

### 2. The Claim Sprint—$1,500 flat
- Technical foundation: full crawl, Search Console review, titles and metas, broken links and redirects
- The claim layer: entity schema with sameAs links, llms.txt, a canonical "what is this business" page, and FAQ schema

Where an item belongs with your developers, we return it as a precise, written fix list they can execute directly. We direct the work; we do not bill you for pretending to be your dev team.

### 3. AI Presence, Measured—$500/month

A monthly re-run of your money-query set across Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity, delivered as a written receipt: what changed, what the answers say now, and the next fixes in line. AI answers drift; this is how you know before your customers do.

## The Google Business Profile connection

For local and service businesses, the Google Business Profile is one of the primary sources AI answers are built from. A suspended, duplicate, or miscategorized profile does not just hurt your map listing; it corrupts what the AI says about you everywhere. Gerris's Google Business Profile work, including service-area configuration and reinstatement support, is delivered under the same direction as our search work, so your profile, your website, and your listings tell one consistent story. That consistency is what the machines reward.

## Proof of work
- AI-answer presence measurement is already a sold, scheduled deliverable inside a multi-location retail engagement: baseline first, then monthly across Google Search, Maps, ChatGPT, and Perplexity.
- Our audit format has been run in full for a therapy practice, covering entity consistency and AI-readiness end to end.
- Our claim-layer build (entity schema, llms.txt, canonical explainer page, AI-presence baseline) is already in production for a media client.
- The audit's $750 price is not a launch discount. It is the price a client has already paid for the pilot.

## How engagements run
1. **A short call** to confirm fit, your markets, and your money searches.
2. **The audit**, delivered in writing, yours to keep regardless of what follows.
3. **The sprint, the handoff, or the monthly measurement.** Commitments and prices in writing before work begins.

The machines are describing your business to your customers right now. Gerris makes sure they get it right.
