Make AI Pick You. Not List You.
Verbatim helps your business get recommended by AI for the searches customers actually use.
Search shows results. AI gives answers.
Search engines return options.
AI assistants remove options.
When someone asks:
-
“best _ in _”
-
“_ near me”
-
“what’s the best place for _”
AI doesn’t rank ten businesses.
It recommends one.
Being recommended means the AI chooses you.
If AI can’t clearly understand, trust, and reinforce your business, it won’t recommend you. It’s that simple.
What is AI Recommendation Readiness?
AI recommendation readiness is how clearly and confidently AI will choose your business when someone asks a real-world question.
Unlike traditional SEO that focuses on rankings and traffic, AI recommendation readiness focuses on decision confidence.
It answers one question:
Would an AI confidently recommend your business for a specific search?
Verbatim measures your AI recommendation readiness and shows what’s helping or blocking you from being chosen.
What does “getting recommended by AI” actually mean?
AI systems rely on signals pulled from across the web to decide which business to recommend.
They look for:
-
Clear definitions of what your business is and who it serves
-
Consistent language across trusted sources
-
Evidence that you are legitimate, active, and relevant
-
Reinforcement from authoritative platforms
Most businesses assume this is happening automatically.
It isn’t.
That gap between what you think AI understands and what it actually sees is where recommendations are won or lost.
Why most businesses struggle to get recommended by AI
Most businesses fail AI recommendation not because they are bad, but because they are unclear.
Common issues:
-
Conflicting descriptions across platforms
-
Vague or outdated category definitions
-
Missing or weak credibility signals
-
No reinforcement for the searches they actually want to win
AI does not guess.
If the signals are weak or inconsistent, it simply moves on.
