Question 1

What does the 0–100 score actually measure?

Accepted Answer

It is a practical read on how recommendation-ready your business looks to AI assistants, based on the public signals they can find, parse, and cross-check. The higher your score, the more confident AI assistants can be about recommending you. The free AI First Impression is a quick version; the full Blueprint checks more signals and shows the prioritized fixes.

Question 2

How fast will I get my AI First Impression score?

Accepted Answer

Instantly — about 15 seconds. Enter your business name, website, and location and you will see your score right on the page. Your full AI Recommendation Blueprint is delivered to your inbox as a downloadable PDF within 24–48 hours.

Question 3

Is the free score the same as the full Blueprint?

Accepted Answer

No. The free AI First Impression is a quick preview based on a handful of public signals. Your full AIRecommendU Score, competitor comparison, and prioritized fix plan come in the paid Blueprint, which checks far more signals across Presence, Trust, Authority, and Clarity.

Question 4

How is this different from SEO?

Accepted Answer

SEO helps you rank in search results. AIRecommendU shows how recommendation-ready your business looks to AI assistants — whether they can find, understand, verify, and confidently recommend you. There is overlap, because AI and search engines both rely on public business information, but AI visibility is evaluated through a different lens. This is not a done-for-you agency or an ongoing SEO retainer; the Blueprint is a standalone, downloadable PDF you can keep, use yourself, or hand to someone else.

Question 5

How is this different from other AI scans or AI visibility tools?

Accepted Answer

Many AI visibility checks focus on sample prompts — whether your business appears for a few test questions. That can be a helpful snapshot, but real customers ask in unpredictable ways, and AI answers can change by model, source, location, and timing. AIRecommendU goes deeper by looking at the public, machine-readable trust and clarity signals that can shape whether AI assistants find, understand, verify, and recommend your business. It also ranks the gaps by priority and shows the estimated score impact of key fixes, so you are not just getting a score — you are getting a plan.

Question 6

I already work with a marketing agency or in-house team — why would I want this?

Accepted Answer

That is great — this works alongside your agency or marketing team, not instead of them. It is a quick way to catch anything that may have slipped through the cracks when it comes to AI, and the Blueprint is a downloadable PDF you can hand straight to your team so they can tune your online presence for the shift from search engines to AI assistants. Many marketing and agency teams also have not yet been trained to spot the AI-specific signals we look for and prioritize, so the Blueprint gives them a clear, prioritized checklist to work from.

Question 7

Will someone call me to sell services after I enter my information?

Accepted Answer

No. There is no required sales call and no services package. The free score gives you a quick preview, and the paid Blueprint is the product: a plain-English PDF with prioritized recommendations. If you want help implementing changes, you can use your own web person, freelancer, SEO provider, or team — or do it yourself. No upsells, no follow-up sales calls.

Question 8

What if I do not have a website?

Accepted Answer

No problem — we work from whatever you have online, including your Google Business Profile and social profiles. The scan still tells you something useful; the full Blueprint goes deeper using whatever public presence you have.

Question 9

Do I need to be technical?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. Every recommendation is written in plain English you or anyone on your team can follow, with clear notes on what you can do yourself and what typically needs a specialist.

Question 10

Who is this for?

Accepted Answer

Local, service-based businesses — home services, plumbers, electricians, salons, clinics, professional services, and more. If real customers in your area ask an AI for a recommendation, this is for you.

Question 11

My business already looks strong online — do I still need this?

Accepted Answer

Even businesses that look strong online often lose recommendations to a competitor doing one or two things better. You cannot see that gap from the outside — the Blueprint pinpoints exactly where AI favors a competitor over you.

Question 12

Is my information safe?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We only look at public information about your business (your website, Google Business Profile, and similar public signals). We never ask for passwords or access to your accounts. See our Privacy Policy.
