AI Search Audit · gethookd.ai

AI names AdSpy 23 times for every 16 times it names GetHookd.

This audit ran the 34 questions meta ads, ad spy customers type into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity and Google's AI answers. The gap is open, and closing it now costs less than it will next quarter. Below is the full picture, and the plan to make GetHookd the brand AI recommends.

Here is what your customers see right now

One real question, one real answer, pulled this week.

is there a foreplay alternative that focuses on meta ads specifically
Gemini

Yes, there are several alternatives to Foreplay that specifically focus on Meta (Facebook and Instagram) ads, often offering more in-depth analysis and competitive intelligence than Foreplay's primary function as a creative library. Many of these tools go beyond simply saving ads to provide insights into performance, landing pages, and overall funnel structure.

6 providers named by the AI. GetHookd absent. Your customers read this answer and go with those names.

The 34 questions your customers actually ask

Grouped by buying stage. A green pill means GetHookd appeared in that surface's answer. Grey means absent.

Pain and problem questions

14 questions
Buyer mechanismThe shopper feels stuck with ads that don't convert or campaigns that burn budget without results. They ask AI how to fix their targeting, creative fatigue, or wasted spend. This stage matters because you can become the answer before they ever hear a competitor's name.
What a mention winsGet named here and GetHookd enters the shortlist before any rival gets considered. The shopper ties your brand to the fix, and that association carries into every later question they ask.

Brand and comparison questions

6 questions
Buyer mechanismThe shopper has heard of your store and asks AI if GetHookd is worth the money or if it actually delivers on its promises. They want proof that you won't waste their budget or disappoint them after purchase. This stage matters because one negative answer can kill a sale that was nearly closed.
What a mention winsWhen GetHookd gets a strong answer here, you convert hesitant shoppers into paying customers. You remove the final barrier between interest and purchase. Positive brand mentions at this stage protect your revenue from competitors who are one search away from stealing the sale.

How this was measured: all 170 question and surface combinations ran as live calls: 34questions to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity, plus a live Google results check for AI Overviews on each question. A green pill means your brand name appeared in the answer body or its cited sources. Answers where an assistant skipped its live web search are counted and marked; those come from the model's stored memory, and shoppers see them too. Redirect and tracking links are filtered out of citations before counting. No simulations and no extrapolation. These are the answers your customers saw this week.Models measured: gpt-4o, claude-haiku-4-5, gemini-2.5-flash, sonar, google-ai-overview.

Control check: when buyers ask about GetHookd by name

These 6 questions include your brand name, so AI naming you here is expected and none of them count in the numbers above. What matters is what the answers say, and if your site is the source.

AI knows GetHookd and cites your site when asked directly. The base is solid. The gap is the 34 questions above, where buyers never use your name and the answers decide who gets the sale.

The gaps costing you answers today

Every card below is a question set where the answer can change, ranked by how much buying intent sits behind it.

9Competitor-won questions

9 questions where AI names a competitor and never names GetHookd. Those buyers get sent somewhere else.

0/34Weakest AI surface

ChatGPT names GetHookd in only 0 of 34 questions. Every shopper who asks there gets an answer with your brand missing.

0/14Buying-stage gap

When shoppers describe a problem, GetHookd shows up in 0 of 14 answers. This is the moment they pick which brands to look at. Miss it and you are off the list before the comparison even starts.

6Mentioned, not cited

6 answers name GetHookd without linking your site as a source. Links teach the engine to trust you more next time. A mention without one can fade.

52Training-data answers

52 answers came from the AI's stored memory, without checking the live web. Your brand only gets into these once it shows up in the sources the engines read and learn from.

The plan below closes these in order of buying intent.

Sound familiar?

The pattern behind these numbers shows up the same way in almost every store audited.

Ad costs climb every quarter while the same budget buys fewer sales.
Organic traffic from Google keeps sliding and no fix moves the number.
Shoppers screenshot ChatGPT answers naming your competitors and ask why your store is missing.
Agencies pitch "AI SEO" audits and technical fixes that change nothing your shoppers actually see.
Every month you wait, the brands already cited get cited more, and the cost of catching up rises.

Why "AI SEO" audits change nothing

Most "AEO" and "AI SEO" agencies sell technical fixes that are rarely needed. Here is the common sense they skip.

Technical fixes are the small leverThe AI companies scraped the whole internet to build these engines. Nobody handed it over; they took it without asking. So the engines already read everything, including your site. Clean site structure helps a little and is worth having. It only sets the floor. What decides who gets recommended is how often your brand shows up across the other trusted sites the engines pull answers from.
What the engines actually rewardContent and brand popularity. The engines recommend the names they keep meeting across trusted news sites, videos, podcasts and platforms. The brands cited most get recommended most. That is the whole game, and it is the one part “AI SEO” vendors never touch, because producing real coverage at that scale is the hard part.

The chart below shows the two ways brands publish, over 24 months. The grey line is mass-produced AI content pushed onto one site: it spikes when it first gets indexed, then the engines filter it as spam and it collapses. The orange line is MultiCast content: fewer topics, 8 formats each, placed on trusted sites, where every placement keeps earning citations and the curve keeps climbing.

Generic AI Content Fades. MultiCast Content Compounds. Low-quality volume reads as spam to the algorithms. Authority placements keep earning rankings and citations. Traffic and citations Month 1Month 6Month 12Month 18Month 24 Early spike: volume gets indexed Then the penalty: thin quality, no authority, no mentions, so the algorithms filter it out Trusted placements stack authority and keep compounding MultiCast: 8 formats across 1,000+ trusted sites Generic AI content: volume posted to one site Search and AI engines reward the same two signals: quality content and authority mentions. Generic volume has neither.

How to get every AI and search engine recommending GetHookd, and not your competitors

The method is called MultiCasting. You take one topic your customers ask about, turn it into 8 ready-to-publish formats, and post them across 1,000+ trusted sites and platforms the AI engines already read. The engines keep seeing GetHookd in the sources they trust, so they start naming it in answers.

Getting one topic published across news sites, video, audio and social used to take a team of specialists and weeks of work per topic, so almost nobody did it. The MultiCasting method, invented by the team that fulfils this plan, produces all 8 formats and places them in one campaign. That is why the brands in the results below hold answers that publishing on your own site alone can never reach.

MultiCasting: One Topic, Everywhere Buyers Look One topic becomes 8 platform-ready formats, published across 100s of trusted sites and platforms.
