    Search is changing. Customers still turn to Google to find local businesses, but they’re also asking tools like ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity for recommendations. That gives businesses another question to consider: when a potential customer asks for a service like yours, is your business part of the answer?

    GREENstick’s new SEO AI Premium brings that question into focus. It combines local search tools, AI visibility reporting and the AI Search Specialist to help businesses understand their presence and identify opportunities to improve it.

    Meet your AI Search Specialist

    The AI Search Specialist helps turn search data into next steps. It can review visibility, identify suggested improvements and answer questions about your business’s keywords, listings, citations, website health and AI visibility in plain language.

    Depending on your setup and the capabilities you enable, it can also maintain business profile details, select keywords to track and prepare eligible content or website improvements. You can review recommended changes, approve individual items or choose eligible automated actions.

    The goal is to make it easier to keep your search presence current while giving you and your team a clearer view of what to work on next.

    See where your business appears in AI search

    Premium includes Brand Visibility, AEO and SEO reporting. The Brand Visibility report looks at whether and how your business appears in responses to a set of relevant questions across supported AI platforms. It also provides context on competitors, sources and areas for improvement.

    Our own sample report illustrates why the details matter. Across the questions tested, GREENstick appeared in results for some queries more consistently than others. That kind of breakdown can help a business move beyond a single score and look more closely at the questions customers are asking.

    Reports begin when Premium is activated and refresh on the first business day of each month. Results reflect the prompts and platforms tested at that time. They do not guarantee inclusion, rankings, leads or revenue.

    Inside a sample report

    Here's an anonymized example of a Brand Visibility report for a local electrical contractor. We tested 9 customer questions across 3 customer personas on ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity, then scored each answer from 0 to 100.

    The pattern: strong visibility when customers search by name, weaker visibility on generic searches like 'affordable electrician near me.' That gap is where new customers are won.

    Recommendations and quick wins

    1. Publish clear pricing and estimate details

      Helps with budget-focused searches where visibility is weakest.

    2. Strengthen unbranded local service pages

      City-specific pages for your most-requested services.

    3. Make licensing and safety credentials easy to verify

      Builds trust with safety-first customers.

    4. Clarify emergency availability and response times

      Improves discovery for urgent, high-intent searches.

    5. Build a stronger review and reputation footprint

      AI tools cite sources like Google, Birdeye, and BBB.

    Choose the SEO AI edition that fits your business

    Standard: Free

    A starting point for managing your online presence, with Google and Facebook listing synchronization, three tracked keywords, a My Listing page and AI-generated business descriptions.

    Pro: $29/month

    Everything in Standard, plus listing synchronization across six platforms, tracking for 15 keywords and a local rank grid that shows where your business appears on the map.

    Premium: $149/month

    Everything in Standard and Pro, plus the AI Search Specialist, monthly visibility reporting, profile and keyword support, and plain-language insights. Eligible accounts can also receive content and website improvement recommendations.

    What to know about website and content features

    Reports, profile maintenance, keyword recommendations and chat can work with any website.

Backlink services are separate and remain a human-delivered service.

    Some features require connected accounts, permissions or configuration. GREENstick can help you understand what applies to your business before you upgrade.

    More support is on the way

    We’re also preparing GREENstick-assisted setup and optimization services for businesses that want extra help connecting accounts, configuring their specialist and understanding their reports. We’ll share more details as those services become available.

    Your customers have more ways to search than ever. SEO AI gives you a way to see more of that picture and take practical steps to strengthen your presence.
