FAQ

Common questions.

What is a citation in AI search?

A source an AI tool links to or relies on in its answer. A mention is your firm being named in content.

Do directory listings still matter?

Yes. In many industries, AI tools cite directories heavily for local and professional questions.

Do you post on Reddit for clients?

We do not post undisclosed promotion. We can advise your team on helpful, openly identified participation.

Can you guarantee press coverage?

No. Editors decide. We pitch credible, useful expertise.

How many mentions per month?

Pro includes outreach for 2 outside mentions a month (publishers decide). We report every pitch and placement.

What does it cost?

Directory work is in Growth ($690/mo); outreach is in Pro ($1,190/mo).
