FAQ

The questions people actually ask ChatGPT/Claude/Gemini

This is written for practice owners and administrators. It’s designed to be copy/pastable into the exact “is this real?” conversations you’ll have internally.

Will we show up in ChatGPT/Claude/Gemini if we pay you?

No one can guarantee that. Models differ, prompts differ, and retrieval changes. What we can do is make your public signals more retrievable and quotable, then verify movement using comparable reruns with strict provenance.

How do you measure “AI visibility” without overclaiming?

We use a stable prompt pack that mirrors real patient/referrer questions. For each run we store the provider/model, prompt set identity, and methodology version. We treat changes as meaningful only when those inputs match.

Is this just SEO?

It complements SEO. SEO optimizes for search engines. Our baseline starts with realistic AI prompts and the model’s answers today, then maps fixes to the signals AI tools retrieve and cite — often overlapping with what improves classic search and conversion.

What changes fast vs slow?

Fast: page clarity, service coverage, obvious citation drift, structured signals. Slow: authority, competitive landscape, broader model behavior. We label expectations and verify only with comparable reruns.

Do you work in Sarasota and Manatee County?

Yes — Sarasota/Manatee is the year-1 beachhead and positioned as a feature. We start with local prompts so results match how real patients search.

Do you need access to our systems?

Usually no. Most fixes are public-facing (site, listings, citations). If deeper access would materially improve the work, we scope it explicitly.
