The Problem

Your Competitors Are Getting Recommended. You're Not.

A business can rank #1 on Google and be completely invisible on ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Siri. The four major AI engines use different data sources and share almost no recommendations in common.

February 17, 2026 — U.S. v. Heppner, S.D.N.Y.

A federal court ruled that conversations with ChatGPT and Claude are not protected by attorney-client privilege. Most marketing agencies use OpenAI to generate law firm content — meaning client data sits on OpenAI's servers. Our AI runs locally. Your firm's data never touches a third-party platform.

In a study of Chicago PI firms, 3 firms captured 15–20 AI-referred leads per month. Every other firm got zero. AI search is binary — you're either cited or invisible.
Foursquare supplies 60–70% of the data ChatGPT uses for local recommendations. Apple Business Connect powers Siri for 180M+ users. Most businesses have never claimed either one.
Your current SEO agency almost certainly isn't tracking AI search visibility, fixing robots.txt errors that block ChatGPT crawlers, or managing Foursquare and Apple Business Connect.

FAQ

Common Questions

A 50-point technical and content assessment of how well your business is positioned to be recommended by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Apple's Siri. We deliver a heat map showing which engine you're losing on most and a ranked fix list. Delivered within 48 hours. Free.

ChatGPT matches Google's top results less than 25% of the time. A firm ranking #1 on Google can be completely invisible in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Siri. We address both but specialize in the AI search layer most agencies ignore.

Yes — and this is the most important question for law firm clients to ask their current agency. GapMetric runs AI locally on our own hardware. No client data is ever sent to OpenAI, Anthropic, or any cloud AI service. On February 17, 2026, the Southern District of New York ruled in U.S. v. Heppner that ChatGPT conversations are not protected by attorney-client privilege. If your current marketing agency uses ChatGPT, your data is on OpenAI's servers. Ours isn't.

No. All retainers are month-to-month with 30 days written notice to cancel. No minimum term, no early termination penalty. The GEO Foundations package is a one-time fee with no ongoing commitment.

You do — always. WordPress on your own hosting account. Google Analytics, GBP, and Search Console under your email. All content and strategy documents belong to you. If you cancel, you take everything. This is in the service agreement.

GBP ranking movement is typically visible within 60–90 days of consistent posting. AI search citation improvements appear within 90–120 days as ChatGPT and Perplexity re-crawl. We re-run the 50-point audit every month so you see exactly which items moved.

A $350/month add-on for law firm clients. A formal written attestation, audit log, and quarterly compliance report confirming all AI content production happened on our local hardware — no API calls to OpenAI or Anthropic. Directly addresses U.S. v. Heppner and ABA Formal Opinion 512.
