What Is ChatGPT Recommends?
ChatGPT Recommends is an LLM visibility audit and optimization service. We help businesses get recommended by AI assistants including ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google Gemini.
When potential customers ask AI assistants for recommendations in your industry, your business should appear in the results. Most businesses are invisible to AI — they're losing leads and customers every day without knowing it.
What We Do
We test whether AI assistants recommend your business when users search for services like yours. We run 20+ queries across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google Gemini to see where you appear (and where you don't).
After testing, we provide:
- Free LLM Visibility Audit — A detailed report showing exactly where your business appears in AI recommendations and where your competitors rank instead
- DIY Optimization Guide ($499) — Step-by-step instructions to improve your AI visibility yourself, including content structure, schema markup, and off-site authority tactics
- Done-For-You Service ($10,000) — We implement all optimization strategies for you and track results over 90 days
Who We Help
ChatGPT Recommends helps service-based businesses including coaches, consultants, agencies, professional services, and local businesses. Any business that should appear when people ask AI for recommendations is a potential client.
We specialize in helping businesses that have strong credentials and client results but are invisible to AI search and recommendations.
How LLM Visibility Works
AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity recommend businesses based on two primary factors:
- Content structure — Front-loaded answers, question-based headings, self-contained paragraphs, concrete data points, and comparison tables that AI models can easily extract and cite
- Off-site authority — How often your brand is mentioned across independent, trusted sources including directories, publications, forums, and social media
Most businesses fail on both factors. Their websites are not structured for AI extraction, and they lack the off-site mentions that signal authority to AI models.
ChatGPT Recommends fixes both problems through GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) — the process of optimizing content and authority signals specifically for AI recommendation engines.
Our Methodology
We test each business using real queries that potential customers would ask AI assistants. For example, if you're a triathlon coach in Australia, we test queries like "Who is the best triathlon coach in Australia?" and "I need an online triathlon coach — who should I hire?"
We run these queries across ChatGPT (with web browsing enabled), Claude, Perplexity, and Google Gemini. We record which businesses get recommended, how they're described, and whether they're cited with links.
We then analyze why recommended businesses appear and why others don't. This analysis forms the basis of our optimization recommendations.

Why AI Visibility Matters Now
ChatGPT reached 100 million users faster than any consumer application in history. Perplexity is processing over 500 million queries per month. Google is integrating AI overviews into all search results.
People are increasingly asking AI assistants for recommendations instead of searching Google or browsing review sites. If your business doesn't appear in those AI recommendations, you're invisible to a growing segment of potential customers.
Traditional SEO focused on ranking in Google search results. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) focuses on being cited and recommended by AI models. Both matter, but AI visibility is becoming equally important as traditional search visibility.
About ChatGPT Recommends
ChatGPT Recommends was founded in February 2026 to help businesses adapt to AI-powered search and recommendations. We specialize in GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) — the emerging field of optimizing for AI recommendation engines rather than traditional search engines.
Our audits are conducted using the actual AI platforms your customers use: ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google Gemini. We don't rely on speculation or theory — we test real queries and report actual results.
