Oh, I have a question about your specialization) ChatGPT recommended us well as a custom development contractor, but about a month ago it completely stopped, even though we hadn’t done anything. What could have changed? Have there been any changes in the algorithms?

Congratulations on the PH launch of Pendium!

Totally get it from your intro video, nicely done.

This looks pretty awesome, and introduced me to yet another TLA - AEO!
Such a smart play to target the agents, especially now when many people don't even understand or question how their agent got answers, but assume it does the right thing and makes the right choices.

SEO/GEO (and now, apparently, AEO!) is certainly a busy space, so this needs to be easily grokkable and integrated into existing workflows. Having an MCP and simple prompting is smart.

As a DevRel, I know it's super important to tailor product messaging content, medium, style, and delivery to be easily digestible (and memorable) to modern agents.

Looking forward to trying our Pendium AI!

This could definitely be the next big thing, AEO space is booming rn. Is there a way we could attribute the current chatgpt/claude traffic with the exact prompt used?

Hey PH 👋 Rob here — cofounder at Pendium.

@dgreenberg covered the what. I want to share a little bit of the why.

From the start, we wanted to build something that helps people harness the power of AI to simplify and augment their lives (and definitely not replace them). With our background — 15 years at Sharethrough — we learned firsthand just how hard it is to get your message, story, and brand out to the world, and it’s only getting harder! We built Pendium to make it easier and faster to get your story visible.

Here’s how it works:

• We run hundreds of parallel LLM calls across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and AI Overviews — simulating real buyer personas asking real questions in your category. Then we show you exactly where you show up, where you don’t, what gets cited, and what to do about it.

• We feed those learnings into a content engineering system so you can harness AI to quickly flesh out your message — grounded in real visibility data, in your voice, targeting the specific gaps that matter.

We built this to work for everyone — small business or Fortune 500. Quality should determine visibility, not budget.

Run yours and drop your report in the comments — we’d love to go through it with you and learn from your feedback!

Congrats on the launch! GEO is one of those topics I feel like the marketing world is still catching up to, so it's exciting to see a dedicated tool for it.

I'm curious about the "track how AI agents research your category" part specifically. How does it handle categories that are still pretty niche or early-stage, where AI agents may not have much data to surface yet?

Asking as someone building in the personal branding space with PostGod, where "showing up in AI recommendations" is becoming a constant question for our users tbh 👀

Good idea and great timings, seems to be a game changer for founders, congrats on launch and good luck!

This is such a smart angle!! In recruiting, we deal with this exact problem: the right candidates exist but the systems don't surface them to the right people. Curious how you handle nuance in matching context to audience, especially when the signals are messy and unstructured?

Congrats on the launch! The core loop feels familiar, understand how the system works and optimize accordingly. Curious though, how stable are the visibility scores week to week? LLM outputs can be pretty noisy so wondering how you normalize that into something actionable.

Congrats on the launch! GEO is going to be a huge thing. Most people are still thinking about traditional SEO but AI recommendations are already changing how people discover products.

Congrats on the Launch. This looks quite nice. I was wondering, what you do different to all the other services. Is it the personas? I think that makes it especially useful. Just wanted to try it out but now I'm stuck on the Persona step and I'm too tired now to thoroughly fill all the relevant personas.

Anyways, last summer I was onto building such service myself but stopped working on it in favor of my current SaaS.
What I am wondering: how can you reliably detect citations? I mean you probably just use their APIs, but ChatGPT is not equal GPT, it adds some flavor on top of the API. So if you run a prompt I guess the response will be different from what I would prompt in the UI. Or what am I missing?

Wow, really cool! Our score is 0 😄 But I hope it is because we just added few days ago content to address this gap and it has not been indexed yet. @dgreenberg how log does it take from your experience to see results once you publish content?

Congrats on the launch @dgreenberg ! Would you say one has to do a (tough) trade-off between optimizing one's page for AI agents vs for humans or is it possible to optimize for both at the same time?

SEO is dead, long live GEO. Now I need to optimize my content not just for Google's algorithm but also for Claude's feelings about my brand. We really are living in the future. 🤖

It's amazing Dan! It's key to understand what agent is the best option for some specific task, even more for specific businesses. Hope many founders can take the most of it. Really congrats!

Congrats on the Pendium launch. Targeting AI agents is a great idea.

I visited the homepage of your product, @dgreenberg. One thing caught my attention in the hero section.

You say: [Reach more customers on....recommend your products and services to the right people]

Then you show a ChatGPT response where your business is listed as #1 with a note: [Your Business Should Be Here — Use Pendium to help AI agents and chatbots recommend your products and services.]

That's a demo. But it's also a contradiction.

How?

Lemme tell show you. You're showing a recommendation that was influenced by Pendium, but the example itself is promoting Pendium. It reads like a placeholder. A person landing on your page might think "is this what my business will look like, or is this just an ad for them?"

The middle section says "73% of users trust AI recommendations over traditional search."

That's a strong stat.

But it's buried under a wall of copy. A visitor scanning might miss it.

And the "how it works" section is six steps. That's a lot for someone to digest before they understand the value.

I attached a screenshot to show what I mean.

Spotted other things that could cost you. Happy to share if you are open.

These are just valuable insights from me because I analyze product pages daily and spot the loopholes. Anyhow, good luck!

Congrats on launching. The idea of marketing to AI agents instead of just humans is something I hadn't really thought about until now. But it makes total sense given how many people are using the ChatGPT and others to research products before buying. Really curious to try the free visibility audit. Does the platform show you which specific AI models are recommending you more, or is it more of an aggregate view?

I'm finding myself using Chat increasingly for purchases. There's a lot of experimentation in AEO/GEO, which could expand heavily if/when OpenAI and others introduce ads.

@dgreenberg what's the biggest surprise or learning building Pendium so far? I'm also curious to hear about the counter-intuitive things founder uncover when building something new. :)
