About

Great businesses deserve to be found.

wearefound.ai is an AI-visibility studio for independent local businesses. We make sure the people looking for what you do can find you, now that they’re asking AI.

Why local businesses

The best local businesses are often the ones AI never mentions.

Independent owners are the bookkeeper, the marketer and the person doing the work, often all in the same day. Big chains have teams and software keeping AI up to date about them. The shop down the street doesn’t.

That leaves little time for websites, listings and whatever AI is doing this month. When we checked independent businesses in San Diego, most weren’t named when we asked AI for the best in their category and city, even ones with loyal customers and five-star reviews.

Our view on AI

However you feel about AI, it’s already choosing who gets recommended.

We’d rather small businesses help shape that than be left out of it. Big brands have teams and software for this. The salon down the street doesn’t, and shouldn’t need one. We use AI to do the heavy lifting so good businesses get a fair shot, and we hold ourselves to a few rules while we do it.

  1. 01Truth over tricks

    We only publish what’s true about your business. No fake reviews, no hidden text, no schemes to game an assistant. Being found should be earned, and it lasts longer when it is.

  2. 02Yours, always

    Your facts, your words and your accounts stay yours. We don’t sell data, and you can take everything we make with you.

  3. 03Plain English

    No jargon and no dashboards to decode. A person reviews every report before it reaches you.

  4. 04Fair to small

    The check is free for anyone. Our prices are fixed and published, sized for a business with one location, not a corporation.

  5. 05Proof, not promises

    We measure before and after with the same questions your customers ask. We never promise a ranking, because no one honestly can.

Our pledge

1 in 10

For every ten projects, one is free.

For every ten implementations we sell, we do one at no cost for a local business that couldn’t otherwise afford it. Same work, same people, same before-and-after.

To be considered, run the free check on your site and tick the pledge box when you ask for your report. Know a business that deserves it? Run the check on their site and send them the link.
