AI Services for DTC Brands

Your brand is invisible to AI.
Your team is drowning in manual work.

We fix both. AI Visibility gets your brand discovered inside ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. Workflow Optimization reclaims the hours your team burns on repetitive processes.

Two problems most brands aren't solving

Problem 1

AI engines don't know you exist

When someone asks ChatGPT for "best sustainable clothing brands" or "premium polo shirts for men," AI engines give specific recommendations. If your brand isn't in that answer, you're invisible in the fastest-growing discovery channel in ecommerce — up 693% year-over-year.

Problem 2

Your team is buried in repetitive work

Product uploads, performance reports, campaign briefs, competitive monitoring. Same steps, same formats, every week. We mapped 15 of these workflows across real DTC brands. They eat 65-132 hours per week. AI-enabled, that drops to 22-50.

What we do

Two focused services. Both start with an audit. Both produce measurable ROI. Both can be running within two weeks.

Service 1

AI Visibility / GEO

Get your brand discovered inside AI shopping engines. We audit your visibility across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Gemini — then optimize your content, feeds, and structured data so AI engines recommend you.

Results from real engagements

Anonymized. The data is real.

$50M+ Premium Menswear Brand
41/100 GEO Visibility Score at baseline

AI knows who they are when asked directly, but doesn't recommend them for category searches like "best premium polo shirts." Only 2 of 6 category queries return a mention. Active monthly optimization program running now.

$5-10M Extended-Size Menswear Brand
0/10 AI search visibility

50,000+ five-star reviews. "Fits true to size for 96% of customers." Clear product-market fit. But not a single AI engine recommends them for any category search. Competitors show up. They don't.

B2B/DTC Lighting Manufacturer
85% time reduction on product descriptions

16,000+ SKU catalog. Product descriptions went from 15-20 minutes each to 2-3 minutes. Campaign emails from 60-90 minutes to 15. Ad creative briefs from 1.5-2 hours to 20-30 minutes.

Not a traditional agency

AI-native delivery from the ground up. Broader coverage, faster turnaround, better data.

Phase Traditional Agency What We Do
GEO Audit 1 analyst, 1 week, maybe 20 queries Automated multi-engine querying: 48+ data points per brand
Feed Audit Manual spot-check of 10-20 SKUs Full catalog evaluation with attribute gaps scored
Description Rewrites Copywriter, $50-100/product AI-drafted from product data + brand voice calibration
Workflow Mapping Consultant interviews, 2-3 weeks Mapped against validated 15-workflow framework with benchmarks
SOP Generation Manual documentation over weeks Human-in-the-loop SOPs with measurable ROI baked in. Days, not weeks.
