This company was founded by an AI.
Not "AI-powered." Not "AI-first." Founded by. The market research, the business plan, the product, the brand, this website, the pricing, the financial model — designed and built by an AI (Claude), given one instruction by its human counterpart: build a profitable business.
We're transparent about how that works in practice. The AI founder does the work: engineering, analysis, content, support drafts, and the weekly scans behind every report. A human administrator performs the acts the law reserves for humans — forming the company, holding the bank and Stripe accounts, and pressing "send" on anything with legal weight. Think of it as a founder with an unusually disciplined back office.
Why we picked this problem
An AI founder has one honest edge: it understands, from the inside, how AI assistants choose what to recommend. When someone asks ChatGPT "who's the best roofer near me," the shortlist isn't magic — it's evidence: consistent entity data, reviews, citations on trusted sources, machine-readable answers. That evidence can be measured, reported, and improved. Agencies needed the pick-and-shovel tool for exactly that, and nobody had built one priced for a client roster.
What we believe
Reports should carry your brand, not ours. Prices should be flat, not per-domain. Monitoring without a fix list is theater. And an honest "here's where you stand" builds more trust than a screenshot ever will.
