Your business is invisible to AI. Do you know it?
Agency Recon maps market intelligence for any UK town or industry and shows exactly which businesses win and which don't appear at all across Google, ChatGPT, and Gemini. See the discoverability gap. Solve the problem. Act before your competitors do.
Built for agencies and marketing teams
AI Discoverability and AI Tech Readiness gaps exist and many businesses are unaware that their brands are practically invisible to AI. AIMI creates market intelligence for any UK town, postcode, and industry. Each AIMI microsite maps a defined local market, identifies around 10 key players, and shows exactly who wins and who loses across Google Organic Search, Google AIO, ChatGPT, and Gemini. By contrasting SEO performance with AI discoverability, AIMI exposes clear opportunities, commercial gaps and content strategies.
- Use AIMI to analyse markets at scale, identifying top Organic winners, map pack leaders, and GAIO presence across towns, industries, and service categories.
- See who AI systems recommend and who they ignore, including ChatGPT and Gemini, giving you a clean, high-quality target list of businesses ripe for sales conversion.
- Convert AIMI insight into outreach and partnership pitches, backed by evidence clients can understand and trust.
- Use AITR to diagnose why prospects lose AI visibility, proving what’s broken, what to fix, and why ongoing optimisation is required for recommendations and citations.
- Use AIMI to benchmark your category and locations, see which competitors AI systems recommend, and where your brand is ignored across Organic, Maps, GAIO, ChatGPT, and Gemini.
- Run AITR to diagnose why your site underperforms, uncovering access blocks, authority gaps, and clarity issues that prevent AI systems from reading and trusting your site.
- Turn insight into a prioritised fix plan, spanning technical SEO, structured data, content architecture, and entity signals, ranked by impact.
- Track progress and defend budget with before-and-after evidence leadership can understand as AI answers and GAIO results evolve.
AIMI and AITR are two halves of one commercial engine
If you only run audits, you miss the market context. If you only map markets, you miss the technical cause of invisibility. We built both because agencies and marketing teams need answers that connect.

Straight answers
Here are straight answers to common questions marketing teams asked.
How does Agency Recon ensure AIMI and AITR are reliable? +
AIMI and AITR use a structured, repeatable interrogation process based on publicly observable signals across search, local visibility and AI-driven recommendation systems. Each component is designed to reduce noise, highlight verifiable outcomes, and avoid speculation. We never depend on a single platform, the focus is on consistency, evidence, and clarity, not on reverse-engineering how any platform works internally.
What do you mean by "GAIO"? +
GAIO is shorthand for Google AI Overviews. We track whether a query triggers an overview, and which brands appear or get cited in it. For agencies, it shows where AI answers suppress clicks and where you still win demand.
Is this just SEO rebranded? +
No. SEO remains foundational, but AI discovery layers add new constraints. AITR focuses on bot access, machine readability, entity verification signals, and clarity. AIMI adds market mapping across Organic, maps, GAIO, and AI assistants.
Will a high AITR score guarantee AI recommendations? +
No. AI platforms use proprietary selection and ranking. A high score improves eligibility to be crawled, read, and understood by systems that power AI answers. That is the part you can control.
Why does an agency need AIMI if it already has SEO tools? +
Traditional tools focus on keywords, backlinks, and traffic. AIMI maps a market as the customer experiences it: SERPs, local pack, GAIO, and AI assistant answers. It turns "we should target X" into a provable, prioritised target list.
What does a first engagement look like? +
Agencies usually start with one AIMI market pack and a set of prompts aligned to their niche. Marketing teams usually start with AITR on their main site. Either way, you get a baseline and a practical plan within days, not weeks.
Do you offer white label for agencies? +
Yes. Agencies can package AIMI market pages and AITR audits under their own client delivery. Use it as a differentiator and keep the commercial relationship with your client.
Why the AI Discoverability Gap is a Huge Opportunity
By Jon Pulman, Founder, Agency Recon
Most marketing teams are still optimising for a world that is quietly changing. For the last twenty years, visibility meant rankings, blue links, and incremental gains through familiar SEO mechanics. That model has not vanished, but it has been overtaken by something more subtle and far more consequential: recommendation by machines.
AI assistants, search overviews, generative answers, and map-driven decision layers now sit between users and websites. They do not simply list options. They summarise, filter, prioritise, and recommend. In many cases, they collapse an entire market into three or four “best” answers.
This creates what I call the AI discoverability gap. On one side are businesses that are technically crawlable, machine readable, and contextually clear. On the other are businesses doing everything right by traditional standards, yet failing to appear at all.
What makes this moment unusual is timing. We are still early enough that most competitors have not adapted. Many agencies and marketing teams sense that something has changed, but lack visibility into how AI systems interpret markets and websites.
Those who move early benefit in three ways. First, lower competition. Second, durable advantage as machine trust compounds over time. Third, commercial leverage through evidence led outreach, audits, and strategy.
This is not about chasing algorithms or gaming prompts. It is about understanding how modern systems consume information and adapting structure, clarity, and signals accordingly.
The organisations that benefit most will not be the loudest or the most automated. It will be the ones that react early, apply evidence, and build clarity into their digital presence while others debate whether the change is real. The gap is open. It will not stay that way.
