ToBeFound

AI SEO agency · in search since 2013

Be the name AI recommends.

Your next client asks ChatGPT, Gemini or Perplexity before they ever call you. We measure exactly what those engines say about you, fix what keeps you out, and show you every raw answer, month after month, wherever in the world your buyers are.

No account. No email. Results in about 20 seconds.

  • ChatGPT
  • Gemini
  • Perplexity
  • Claude
  • Google AI Overviews

What changed

The shortlist is now written by AI.

High-value buyers no longer scroll through ten blue links. They ask one question, such as “best private clinic for…”, “which firm handles…”, “who builds…”, and get three to five names back. If you are not one of them, you are not compared, not called and not chosen.

  • Google is still the base

    AI Overviews and Gemini draw on Google’s index, and several assistants use Bing. Weak SEO means weak AI visibility.

  • Every engine answers differently

    ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude each pick their own sources. You need to know what all of them say.

  • Answers change from run to run

    One check is a snapshot. We ask the same questions every month, three times each, so you see a trend instead of luck.

What we measure

Three questions. Measured, not guessed.

  1. Can AI read you?

    Fifteen technical checks: crawler access, readable text without JavaScript, structured company data, languages and sitemap. Free, instant, method public.

  2. Does AI name you?

    Thirty real buyer questions, frozen word for word, asked three times in each engine and language. We record when you are named, where in the answer, and in which words.

  3. Who does it name instead?

    The competitors AI recommends in your place, and the sources it cites for them. That list is your to-do list.

Every report shows the raw answers: engine, question, date and run. Check every line yourself.

Proof instead of promises

We don’t promise rankings. We show our work.

Nobody controls what an AI engine says, and anyone who guarantees you a spot is guessing. What we do guarantee is a measurement you can verify and work you can see.

  • Raw answers

    Every claim in our reports links to the saved answer: engine, question, date and run number.

  • Frozen questions

    The questions stay word for word the same each month, so a change is real and not a rewording.

  • Open method

    Our readiness check publishes all fifteen checks and their weights. Run it on any site, including ours.

  • Published cases

    Client results appear here with the client’s permission, with the answers before and after. Our own measurement is published here every month.

Who we are

In search since 2013. Now in the answers too.

ToBeFound is led by Simon, who has worked on how businesses get found online since 2013: first in Google, now also in the answers of ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude. The basics have not changed. Engines name the businesses they can read, trust and find mentioned elsewhere.

  • Search work, not a trend

    AI answers lean on search indexes, structured data and what other sites say about you. That is search work, and we did it long before anyone called it GEO.

  • One team, clients worldwide

    Our team works for clients anywhere in the world, remotely, in English, Spanish, Dutch and German, and measures per market and per language.

  • Around the clock when it matters

    For companies that cannot afford a wrong answer, ToBeFound Premium watches the answers 24/7, and the whole team flies in when needed.

Questions

What clients ask first.

What is AI visibility, exactly?

It is how often, and how well, AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude name your business when someone asks for what you sell. We measure it with fixed buyer questions, asked several times in each engine.

Is this different from SEO?

It builds on SEO. AI engines read the same web and lean on search indexes, so technical SEO is the foundation. The difference: AI picks a handful of names and explains why, and it relies heavily on what other sites say about you.

What is GEO, and is it different from AEO or LLM SEO?

Four names for the same work: making sure AI answer engines can read your business, trust it and name it. GEO (generative engine optimization) is the most used term; AEO, LLM SEO and AI SEO mean much the same. GEO explained.

What does AI SEO cost per month?

With us: a one-off audit at €390, or €490 or €1,450 a month, excluding VAT. On the public pricing pages of 18 providers we checked on 22 October 2026, agencies charged from €1,500 a month in Europe to $20,000 and more in the US, and measurement tools $29 to $489 a month.

Can you guarantee that ChatGPT recommends us?

No, and nobody honestly can. What we guarantee: if the Done-for-you measurement shows no progress by day 90, month four is free. On Category Leader: at least two earned mentions per quarter, or the next month is free.

How long until we see results?

Technical fixes are usually picked up within weeks. Being named takes longer, because engines need other sources that mention you. That is why we re-measure every month and report the trend, not a single score.

We are not named by ChatGPT at all. Where do we start?

With the basics, in this order: let the AI crawlers in, make your key pages readable without JavaScript, describe your company in structured data, and make your details the same everywhere. The free check tests the technical part in about 20 seconds; the guide covers all eight steps.

What if an AI engine says something wrong about us?

Find the source it repeats, correct it there and on your own site, and ask the same question again over the following weeks. You cannot edit an answer; you can change what the engine reads. What to do, step by step.

What is llms.txt, and do we need one?

A short text file at the root of your site that tells AI tools who you are and which pages matter. It is optional: Google says its search does not use it, and we found no official statement from OpenAI, Anthropic or Perplexity that their answers do. Cheap to add, but crawler access and structured data come first. llms.txt explained.

How do we check an agency’s claims?

Ask for the raw answers: engine, question, date and run. Ask whether the questions were frozen before the work started, and whether each was asked more than once. A score without answers, or a promised position, shows you nothing. Our method is public, so you can hold us to the same test.

Do you work worldwide?

Yes. Our team serves clients anywhere in the world, remotely, in English, Spanish, Dutch and German, and measures per market and language. Premium clients can also have the whole team on site; travel is billed separately.

Who is behind ToBeFound?

Simon, who has worked on search visibility since 2013, and the ToBeFound team. The company behind the service is Sucess Sociedad Civil in Tenerife, Spain; our clients are anywhere in the world.

What happens to our data?

We keep your request and results only to do the work. We never put your domain into third-party competitor tools and we never sell data. Details on the privacy page.
