For businesses that deserve to be the answer

When your buyers ask AI who to hire, your name should be the answer.

You rank on Google and referrals speak for you. But buyers increasingly start by asking ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google's AI, and if it doesn't name you, you never even know you were in the running.

Foundier fixes that one problem. Start with the 5-day AI Visibility Audit: $1,500, refund-backed, credited toward whatever comes next.

This is fixable, usually in weeks.The 5-day audit shows exactly why AI skips you, and what to change.

The problem isn't your ranking. It's who the AI names instead of you.

Search changed shape underneath you. When an AI answer names two or three businesses and the buyer stops there, being #1 on Google doesn't help, because they never see the results page. Most business owners feel this before they can name it.

The external problem: AI recommends your competitors, and there's no notification when it happens.
The internal problem: qualified leads feel quieter, and nothing in your analytics explains why. It's unsettling.
The frustration: agencies keep pitching "AI SEO," but none can explain what they'd actually change on your site.
What's at stake: the businesses AI cites today become the defaults it cites for years. The gap compounds quietly.
Meet your guide

We've watched this happen to businesses that deserved better.

We started Foundier after running one test hundreds of times: asking AI engines the questions real buyers ask, and watching excellent businesses, some ranking #1 on Google, go completely unnamed. The leads weren't disappearing. They were being handed to whoever the AI mentioned first.

So we built a company that does exactly one thing: get your business recommended by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI Overviews. Not as a line on a bigger menu. As the whole practice, with the tooling and testing that only a specialist builds.

And because trust shouldn't rest on our word, we put it in the structure instead.

Why trust us

New company. The guarantees old ones avoid.

Foundier launched in 2026, and we won't pretend otherwise. So instead of borrowed logos and testimonials you can't verify, we put four guarantees in writing, each one moving the risk off you and onto us.

01Transparency
You see the price before the pitch

Published rates for every service. No "book a call to find out," and no quote that shifts based on how much you look like you can pay.

02Guaranteed
The diagnosis is refund-backed

The audit lands in five business days or you get your $1,500 back. And it credits toward whatever engagement follows, so it costs nothing if we work together.

03Measured
Results are shown, not asserted

The same before-and-after citation test on every engagement, across all four engines. You watch the movement happen, engine by engine.

04No lock-in
You're never trapped

Monitoring is month to month, projects are fixed-price. If the work stops earning its keep, you stop paying for it. No contract holds you.

Put together, that's a simple promise: the risk of trying Foundier sits with Foundier, not with you.

Start with the audit
The businesses AI recommends today will own their categories for years. We built Foundier to make sure that list includes the ones that earned it, not just the ones that showed up first.
The reason Foundier exists, in one sentence.

The questions buyers ask before they trust anyone.

Straight answers, including the ones about hiring a company this new.

What is an AI SEO company?
An AI SEO company gets your business recommended inside AI answers, so when your buyers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, or Google AI Overviews who to hire, your name comes back. It's different from a traditional agency: instead of chasing blue-link rankings, an AI SEO company engineers the signals AI engines read before citing a business. Foundier is a specialist AI SEO company, it's the only thing we do.
What is AI SEO, in plain terms?
AI SEO (sometimes called generative engine optimization or answer engine optimization) is the practice of making your business easy for AI engines to understand, trust, and cite. When someone asks an AI assistant for a recommendation, AI SEO is what decides whether your business is named or skipped. It overlaps with traditional SEO at the technical layer but targets citations in AI answers rather than positions on a results page.
How is an AI SEO company different from a regular SEO agency?
A regular SEO agency earns you rankings on Google. An AI SEO company earns you citations inside AI answers, and the two run on different signals. You can rank #1 on Google and still be invisible when ChatGPT names who to hire. A specialist AI SEO company works only on the entity clarity, structured data, extractable content, and corroboration that AI engines weigh, rather than treating it as one line on a bigger menu.
How do I get my business recommended by ChatGPT?
Getting recommended by ChatGPT comes down to making your business easy for it to understand and safe to cite: a consistent entity, schema it can parse, answer-first content it can quote, and corroborating mentions across the web. Foundier's audit shows exactly where you stand across ChatGPT and the other engines, then the AI SEO service builds the signals that move you into the answer.
Does AI SEO help local and small businesses?
Yes, often more than it helps large ones. When someone asks AI for a recommendation in a specific place or niche, there are only a few names in the answer, and a focused local or small business can absolutely be one of them. The work is the same in kind: make your business the clearest, most corroborated, most citable option for the questions your buyers actually ask.
How much does an AI SEO company cost?
At Foundier, every price is published. The AI Visibility Audit is $1,500, delivered in 5 business days and credited toward any engagement within 60 days. AI SEO Services run $4,500 to $8,000 in three fixed tiers. AI-Ready Website Design is $10,000 to $15,000. Technical SEO and schema is $3,000 to $6,000. AI Visibility Monitoring is $2,500 per month flat, maintenance included, no minimum contract.
How long does AI SEO take to show results?
Schema and technical fixes are typically live within 2 to 6 weeks. Early citation movement across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews usually shows within 60 to 90 days. Compounding gains build over 3 to 6 months. Every engagement is measured with the same before-and-after citation test, so you see movement as it happens rather than taking it on faith.
How do you prove the work actually moves the needle?
With a before-and-after citation test on every engagement. Before work starts, we record how ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI Overviews answer real buyer questions in your category, and whether you're named. At delivery, the same test runs again, so you see the movement engine by engine. The audit that starts every engagement is itself guaranteed: delivered in 5 business days or fully refunded.
Why should I trust a company founded in 2026?
You shouldn't trust it on age, and we don't ask you to. We ask you to trust the structure: published prices you can compare before we speak, a refund-backed deadline on the audit, a before-and-after test that shows movement instead of claiming it, and no lock-in. Those are guarantees that hold whether we've been doing this for one year or ten, and they put the risk on us, not you.
What kind of businesses is Foundier the right fit for?
Foundier fits businesses that already earn their reputation offline and on Google but go unnamed when buyers ask AI who to hire, typically considered purchases in professional services, B2B, healthcare, and high-value local, where buyers research before they commit. If you need ads managed, a brand redesign, or the cheapest option in the market, a full-service agency will serve you better, and we'll tell you so.
