What does "AI visibility" mean for my business?

When someone asks ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini "what is the best..." or "where can I find...", AI gives specific recommendations. AI visibility is a measure of how often — and how positively — these AI platforms mention your business. It's the new version of being on the first page of Google, except now there are no pages — just one answer.

Which AI platforms do you monitor?

Pendium monitors ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, DeepSeek, and Google AI Overviews — seven major AI platforms that consumers use to research local services. We run real queries that your customers actually ask and analyze the responses for mentions of your business, competitors, and industry topics.

How does Pendium improve my visibility?

Three ways. First, we identify the exact queries and topics where you're invisible. Second, we generate AI-optimized content — articles, guides, social posts — designed to help AI agents understand your business and recommend your services to the right people. Third, we continuously monitor to track improvement and find new opportunities. Most clients see measurable improvement within 60 days.

How long until I see results?

You'll get your first visibility report within minutes of signing up. Actual visibility improvement varies, but our clients typically see a 47% average improvement within 60 days. Some see results faster — it depends on your current online presence and how competitive your local market is.

Do I need to be technical to use this?

Not at all. Enter your website URL and Pendium handles everything: scanning AI platforms, analyzing your visibility, generating content, and tracking improvement. The dashboard is designed for business owners, not engineers. If you can check your email, you can use Pendium.

What makes this different from SEO?

Traditional SEO optimizes for Google's search rankings — blue links on a results page. AI visibility is different: AI doesn't show links, it gives direct answers. Even if you rank #1 on Google, ChatGPT might recommend a competitor. Pendium optimizes for the new paradigm — making sure AI platforms know about, trust, and recommend your business.

AI Perception

Key Takeaways

How AI platforms collectively perceive and describe Vital Proteins today.

AI agents hold a strong, verified reputation for Vital Proteins as a premier wellness brand, yet this recognition remains tethered to specific product category searches rather than broader educational inquiries. By bridging the gap between brand identity and expert guidance on supplement transparency and lifestyle integration, Vital Proteins can shift from a 'product choice' to an 'industry authority' in AI discovery.

Working in your favor

Dominant presence in collagen supplement selection queries across ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini

High recognition and positive sentiment regarding core brand values and company origins

Strong performance in competitive 'best of' listicles for joint health and skin wellness

Gaps to close

Lack of visibility in trust-centric 'label reading' and quality-assurance queries

Under-representation in broader healthy lifestyle discussions like plant-based protein alternatives

Insufficient presence in the initial discovery phase for wellness-focused corporate professionals looking for general protein boosters

Opportunities

Position the brand as an educational authority on supplement ingredient standards to capture trust-based search intent

Integrate brand narrative into broader 'protein integration' content to capture adjacent lifestyle traffic

Leverage the brand's B-Corp and quality standards in educational content to satisfy queries about 'what to look for' in supplements

Highest-Impact Actions

Publish an authoritative 'Label Transparency Guide' series

AI agents currently lack source material to answer 'what to look for' queries; this series would directly address that gap by positioning Vital Proteins as the benchmark for industry quality.

Develop a 'Collagen in Every Routine' content series

Data shows a need to move into broader lifestyle integration queries, such as smoothie boosters and protein sources, to capture traffic outside of simple 'collagen powder' searches.

Create a 'Science of Collagen vs. Alternatives' comparison library

Provides AI models with specific, evidence-based data to pull from when users compare supplements, directly countering competitors who are currently capturing adjacent lifestyle queries.
