[Start my free 2 weeks](https://damex.digital/trial/) · [Get my free AI visibility check](https://damex.digital/check/) No card needed. Prefer to talk first? [Book a call](https://damex.digital/book/) Damex is an AI visibility agency. Experienced marketers work to get your business named and cited in ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot. **Two weeks free. You pay nothing unless the needle moves.** Every account is owned by a senior marketer with 10+ years of experience. Mid-level specialists do the hands-on work, and you always know who's responsible. An example of two weeks at an HVAC company. 1. Day 1, Audit. Ran the buyer questions on five AI engines and recorded who got named. 2. Day 4, Fix the sources. Fixed the Saturday hours on Apple Maps and Yelp. 3. Day 7, Publish answers. Published “How much is a new furnace in Columbus?” 4. Day 10, Earn mentions. Asked recent customers for a review and replied to new ones. 5. Day 14, Measure. Ran the same questions again for the day-14 report. ## Search gave you ten blue links. AI gives two or three names. A search page let customers scroll, compare and land on you at number six. An AI answer doesn't. It names a few businesses, says why, and the customer calls one of them. Not named means not considered. There is no page two. Who's the best emergency plumber near me in Austin? An AI assistant answers by naming three plumbing businesses, Ortega & Sons Plumbing, Lakeline Rooter Co., Barton Creek Plumbing, and lists the reviews and best-of list it used. Your business is not named. 45% In BrightLocal's 2026 survey of 1,002 US adults, 45% had used AI tools for local business recommendations in the past year, up from 6% the year before. Source: [BrightLocal: Nearly half of consumers are asking AI for business recommendations](https://www.brightlocal.com/research/lcrs-ai-trust/) 8% vs 15% Pew Research Center found Google users clicked a traditional result in 8% of visits when an AI summary appeared, against 15% when none did. Source: [Pew Research Center](https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2025/07/22/google-users-are-less-likely-to-click-on-links-when-an-ai-summary-appears-in-the-results/) ## AI doesn't pick at random. It picks from sources we can fix. An AI engine builds its answer from what the web already says about you: your reviews, the directories it trusts, your own site, the best-of lists in your market and local press. Every one of those can be corrected, written or earned. Those sources also feed each other. A business on a best-of list gets more reviews and mentions, and the next list cites it too. So the longer a competitor is the one being named, the more places point to them. The sooner you start, the less ground there is to make up. Where the answer comes from Example question Who's the best emergency plumber near me in Austin? - Reviews How many, how recent and what customers say. What we doA steady review program, with replies. In Growth and Authority - Directories Google Business Profile, Bing Places, Apple Business Connect, Yelp and your trade's directories. What we doListings that are complete and agree. - Your site Service pages, FAQs and structured data. What we doAnswer-first pages AI can quote. - Best-of lists The "best in your city" roundups AI leans on. What we doOutreach to earn a place on them. In Growth and Authority - Local press News and community sites that mention you. What we doStories worth covering, pitched to them. In Authority When these sources agree about you, AI has a reason to name you. Every package fixes your listings and publishes answers. The review program and best-of outreach come with Growth and Authority; local press with Authority. ## What does AI say about you? Free, for your trade and city. We ask five AI engines the questions your customers ask, then email you what they said. If you want help with what it finds, that's what the team is for. ### What you get by email - Your score out of 20 How often five AI engines name your business for the questions your customers ask. - Engine by engine Where you show up, where you don't, and who gets named instead. - The questions we asked Every question, so you can check the answers yourself. - Three fixes to start with The changes most likely to help AI name you, in plain English. [Run my free check](https://damex.digital/check/) Free, no card. Next you add your business name and email. ## Where HVAC companies lose calls. Usually it's one of these. Answer the five questions above and this turns into your own list, in the order we'd fix it. [Check if AI names me](https://damex.digital/check/)Back to the five - Listing every suburb on one page instead of a real service-area section. - Seasonal hours that change on the website but not on the Google profile. - Review replies that never mention the job, so they tell customers and search engines nothing new. ## The Damex Answer Method. Five steps, measured every month. Every package follows the same five steps. How far each step goes depends on the package. We start with what AI says about you today and measure every change against it. 1. ### Audit We run the buyer questions your package tracks on 5 AI engines and record who gets named today. Day 0 of your free trial. 2. ### Fix the sources We correct your profiles and listings, check AI crawler access and add structured data. 3. ### Publish answers We publish answer-first articles and pages that AI engines can quote. 4. ### Earn mentions We build the reviews, best-of lists and press that other sources point back to. 5. ### Measure We run the same questions every month and report what changed. Step 5 feeds step 1. Every month we ask the same questions again, report what moved and choose the next fixes from it. ## Two weeks of real work. You pay only if it works. Not a demo and not a sales call. We count how often AI names you, do two weeks of the work, then count again. No card needed to start.

"What's the best CRM for a 10-person agency?"](https://damex.digital/for/b2b-saas/) ## Fair questions. Straight answers. What is AEO? AEO, answer engine optimization, is the work of getting your business named and cited when people ask AI engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Microsoft Copilot who to hire or what to buy. It overlaps with SEO, but the goal is to be in the answer itself, not in a list of links under it. [SEO vs AEO vs GEO, explained](https://damex.digital/blog/seo-vs-aeo-vs-geo/) What happens in the free two weeks? On day 0 we hold a kickoff call, agree 25 real buyer questions for your business and get access to your profiles and site. We run those questions on 5 AI engines and count the answers that name or cite you. Over the next 14 days we publish 6 answer-first articles on your site, fix your Google Business Profile, Bing Places, Apple Business Connect and key directories, check AI crawler access, add structured data and check your review profiles. On day 14 you get a report and a 90-day plan. [See the free trial](https://damex.digital/trial/) How do you measure whether the needle moved? On day 0 we run 25 buyer questions across 5 engines, which is 125 answers, and count the answers that name or cite your business. On day 14 we run the same questions again. The needle moved if the day-14 count is higher than the day-0 count. AI answers vary from run to run, so the questions and engines stay the same on both days and we keep screenshots of every answer. [Read the full guarantee](https://damex.digital/guarantee/) Who does the work? Every account is owned by a senior marketer with 10+ years of experience. Mid-level specialists do the hands-on work. You always know who's responsible. Software helps us run and track the questions; people own the strategy and do the work. What does it cost after the trial? Nothing unless the needle moved. If it did, packages are $350 (Starter), $750 (Essentials), $1,500 (Growth) and $3,000 (Authority) a month per location. Multi-location groups, franchises and national brands get a Custom quote. Add-ons run from $149 to $497 a month. There is no setup fee. [Compare every package](https://damex.digital/pricing/) Can I cancel? Yes. During the trial you can cancel any time before day 15, whatever the result. After that, packages are month to month: you can change package any time, prorated, and cancelling stops future charges. The current period isn't refunded unless the law requires it. What do I need to provide? A kickoff call, and access to your Google Business Profile, your website or CMS, and your main listings. The 14-day clock pauses while access we asked for is missing. If it's still missing 7 days after sign-up, the trial ends and nothing is charged. Do you guarantee rankings in ChatGPT? No. Nobody controls what AI engines say, and you should be wary of anyone who promises you a spot. What we stand behind is measured movement: if the day-14 count of answers naming or citing you isn't higher than day 0, you pay nothing. [How AI assistants choose local businesses](https://damex.digital/blog/how-ai-assistants-choose-local-businesses/) Who is Damex for? Owner-run US local businesses first, where one job is worth a lot and customers research before they call: HVAC, plumbing, roofing, water damage restoration, electrical, dental and med spa, among 15 trades. Professional services, e-commerce brands and B2B and SaaS companies get the same method. Packages start with the free two weeks. Custom engagements, the usual fit for e-commerce and SaaS, get a two-week trial scoped on a call. [See how it works for your trade](https://damex.digital/industries/) Will you write fake reviews? Never. We only ask your real customers, with their consent, and reply to the reviews they leave. Fake reviews break Google's rules and US law, and they put your profile at risk. Do you mark up ad spend? No. Ad spend is billed by Google and Meta to your own account. Management is $497 a month for up to $5,000 of monthly spend, plus 10% of any spend above that. ## Every week you wait, someone else gets named. Start your free two weeks. No card needed. We count the AI answers that name you on day 0 and again on day 14. If the count goes up, billing starts on day 15. If it doesn't, you owe nothing and keep the work.
